Value proposition
A 'remediation-first' Digital Immune System that reads live system state, topology, and configuration drift where the data already sits, determines root cause, and applies pre-approved fixes in-place — shortening mean time to resolution without shipping a second copy of logs/metrics to a vendor's cloud.
Products and solutions
DataAgent platform: open-source autonomous remediation agent (free, self-hosted) + paid SaaS tier for fleet management and orchestration across clusters, runs inside cloud-native control planes above existing monitoring stacks.
Unique value
Remediation-first (fix-then-analyze) architecture that runs on customer infrastructure rather than exporting data to a vendor cloud, reportedly cutting observability spend by up to 90% versus legacy tools.
Target customer
Enterprise platform engineering / SRE / DevOps teams running production workloads on Kubernetes, initially targeting North American mid-market and enterprise customers.
Industries served
Cloud Infrastructure / DevOps / SRE / AIOps / Observability
Technology advantage
In-cluster/in-VPC autonomous agent architecture (data never leaves customer environment except for deep-inspection edge cases); staged trust/autonomy model with guardrails and discovery-phase fault classification; open-source core reduces enterprise resistance to running closed software in production.
How they differentiate
Executes remediation first and defers deep root-cause analysis to after service restoration (reversing the conventional detect-then-investigate observability model); open-source, self-hosted agent avoids the vendor-data-ingest cost-alignment problem that legacy observability/AIOps tools have.
Main competitors
Resolve.ai, Cleric, Causely (AI-SRE/AIOps incident remediation category), differentiates from legacy observability vendors (Datadog, Dynatrace, Grafana Labs)
Major milestones
Founded January 2026 by Ishay Yaari and Nati Shalom, emerged from stealth and announced $10M pre-seed on September 1, 2026, with plans to accelerate North American customer adoption.
Market positioning
Challenger positioning against incumbent, ingest-priced observability/AIOps platforms — pitched as replacing rather than augmenting legacy observability tooling.
Geographic focus
Global, go-to-market initially focused on North America; R&D based in Israel.
