Kareem Selim is Co-Founder and CEO of RASPIRE (YC P26), an AI-powered autonomous runtime security platform protecting Android and iOS mobile applications against fraud, API abuse, and runtime threats without a single line of code.

Kareem spent years conducting offensive security audits for banks, fintechs, and enterprises, accumulating 15 combined years of hands-on experience in breaking and securing applications alongside co-founder Hassan Mostafa.

A seasoned ethical hacker, Kareem has won CTFs and security hackathons and identified a critical market gap: post-deployment mobile app security was largely ignored by the incumbent cybersecurity industry.

RASPIRE is backed by Y Combinator (P26 batch), 500 Global, and Sanabil 500 MENA Seed Accelerator, with YC partners Andrew Miklas and Nemil Dalal supporting the company's global expansion.

RASPIRE reached number one on Launch YC and already protects applications serving over 20 million end users across banking, fintech, healthtech, and e-commerce globally.
