Blackwall Raises $100 Million at $2.2 Billion Valuation as AI Bot Traffic Surges

1 articles · Updated · TechCrunch · Oct 20

$100 million in Series C funding valued Estonia-based Blackwall at $2.2 billion, a fourfold jump from its 2025 valuation.
AVP led the round as demand rises for tools that filter bot traffic, DDoS attacks, scraping and rogue AI agents hitting websites.
Blackwall sells through hosting, cloud and managed-service providers rather than directly to websites, letting partners rebrand its tools, set prices and share revenue.
Its platform uses digital fingerprinting and AI models at customer endpoints to separate legitimate users and approved AI agents from malicious bots and disruptive traffic.
The company plans to use the funding to expand across North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific and the Middle East while building more tools for hosting and cloud providers.
