Willow, an Israeli platform that lets enterprises see and control how AI agents access internal systems, data, and tools, has emerged from stealth with $7M in seed funding led by Hetz Ventures, following angel backing from Wix's co-founder and president. The company pitches itself as a way out of the trade-off between locking AI down and letting agents run with unrestrained access, offering visibility into which agents employees use, monitoring of risky integrations, and granular, task-scoped permissions. It connects agents like Claude, Cursor, ChatGPT, and Gemini to internal systems through a marketplace of more than 1,000 connectors, and runs as SaaS, dedicated cloud, or self-hosted. Founded by former Wix engineers, Willow says it's already deployed across more than 5,000 employees at Wix and is expanding into cybersecurity, real estate, and fintech customers.
