Overview
- Spur announced a $200 million financing led by Insight Partners that was reported on Tuesday and will fund rapid expansion of the company’s operations.
- The company said it will use the funding to grow product development, broaden intelligence coverage, expand integrations, and scale customer operations.
- Spur sells real-time IP intelligence that flags traffic routed through VPNs, residential proxies, mobile gateways, botnets, and other anonymizing infrastructure so teams can see where connections actually originate.
- Insight Partners called the investment a response to a critical visibility gap in security, a gap heightened by industry data showing agentic and bot traffic has outpaced human traffic online by mid-2026.
- Founded in 2017 by two former Defense Department engineers and bootstrapped for nine years, Spur delivers its signals via feeds, APIs and session enrichment so existing analytics, authentication and fraud systems can act on the data.
