Polygraf AI closes $9.5M Seed Round led by Allegis Capital

AI Security Awareness Challenge

A series of community-led prompts, memes and discussions, designed to surface real AI security risks (without the fluff).

Why We’re Doing This?

As AI agents and SLMs redefine the enterprise, security can no longer be an afterthought. Join Polygraf AI for a deep dive into the future of AI Application Firewalls, Deepfake Detection, and PII Control. We’re rewarding the brightest minds in the community with credits to build a more secure future.

How to Earn Credits:

We’re not running this challenge for vanity metrics — we’re doing it to reward the AI security community and surface real concerns in the open. Throughout the challenge, we’ll be distributing Polygraf Credits (and occasional larger spotlight rewards) to recognize both standout contributions and the people who help amplify them. Credits can be redeemed across Polygraf products and plans — from Premium access to enterprise usage. (Includes API / platform usage.)

Spotlight Reward

(Top Contribution)
Each challenge post features a Spotlight Reward:
● One standout contribution (comment or original post) receives $500 in Polygraf Credits
● Selected based on impact + engagement (the community votes with attention)

Participation Rewards


Many challenge posts will also include participation-based rewards such as:
● $50 in Polygraf Credits for eligible community contributions (reward criteria may vary by post)

Ripple Reward

(Multiplier Effect)
When a Spotlight winner is selected, we may also reward the people who helped amplify that contribution:
● Anyone who engaged with the winning contribution (likes, replies, shares) may also receive $50 in Polygraf Credits

Notes

Reward type, amount, and timing may vary by post. No purchase necessary. This initiative is not sponsored, endorsed, or administered by LinkedIn.

How do rewards work?

Each challenge includes reward opportunities such as $50 Polygraf Credits and occasional $500 Spotlight Rewards, depending on the post.

Not always — depending on the post, engagement such as likes/replies/shares may also qualify via Ripple Rewards.

Credits can be redeemed across Polygraf products and plans — from Premium access to enterprise usage.

We’ll reach out to selected participants directly with next steps for credit delivery and redemption.
