ACT Venture Capital
Dublin, Ireland · AcceleratorFounded 1994. Multi-stage investor in ICT and healthcare; has raised over €600M across funds and backed companies like Cubic3 and Deciphex.
Tines is a Dublin-founded enterprise software company building workflow automation for security, IT, and operations teams. The product became well known in cybersecurity because it gives frontline analysts a low-code way to automate repetitive response tasks without needing to maintain brittle custom scripts.
Teams can connect alerts, ticketing tools, identity systems, cloud platforms, and communication apps into visual workflows that investigate incidents, enrich context, trigger approvals, and execute remediation steps automatically. That lowers manual workload while preserving auditability and human control over higher-risk actions. Over time, Tines has expanded beyond pure security orchestration into broader internal operations, making the platform useful anywhere a company needs reliable API-based workflow execution across multiple tools.
Its traction reflects a larger shift in enterprise software toward operator-owned automation rather than centralized engineering bottlenecks. In the European ecosystem, Tines is also a strong example of an Irish infrastructure startup that scaled into a global category while staying connected to the region's talent and capital networks.
