We are building a platform for developers to accelerate development and safe deployment of LLM applications to production. We help enterprises to deploy ML across more of their applications and to faster adopt LLMs, RAG, and broader NLP technology. We do this as an inherent part of SDLC and closely integrated into CI/CD tooling.

Tyke helps developers and testers in understanding the business impact of code changes before they are implemented, as well as in automatically generating test suites for the changes. Some of the key features are as follows: 1. Assess the business impact of code change by associating methods (or) queries (or) tables with organisation wide APIs 2. Create test suites for API regression, functional and loads tests automatically with 99% coverage and accuracy and fully automates the test execution as well. Overall, Tyke saves 70% of API testing costs and ensure buggy code is never pushed to production. 3. Create API collections and API documentation automatically. Tyke even auto-generates the OpenAPI spec. In short, Tyke not just takes away the pain of manual test creation, but also ensures near 100% test coverage while significantly improving Dev and QA productivity. It also ensures the API documentation is always up-to-date.

momentum is a code auditor that analyses the necessary code behaviour and tests it at every git push to ensure the code is ready for production.

Quash is an AI-driven bug reporting and testing tool that automates QA for mobile apps. It identifies, reports, and resolves bugs, reducing manual QA efforts. Devs focus on building while Quash accelerates bug fixes, delivering faster, reliable apps.

Aikido is your no-nonsense DevSecOps platform. One central system that shows you what matters and how to fix it, from code to cloud.‍ Created by pragmatic engineers, we put open-source solutions and the dev experience first in what we build – and how we build it. We focus on finding what matters, so you aren’t bothered by what doesn’t. Get security done ? Get back to building.

Founded by former Uber engineers Debo Ray and Rob Fletcher, DevZero emerged from a vision to revolutionize engineering efficiency. At Uber, Debo worked on pioneering infrastructure projects, grappling with the challenges of microservices at scale. This experience highlighted the critical need for streamlined engineering workflows to enhance velocity, reliability, and efficiency. "Faced with the slow pace of software development, our team innovated to overcome operational hurdles. We transformed the engineering process by refining CI test runs, adopting a monorepo-pattern, optimizing code merging, container builds, and deployment processes. Our focus was on creating a seamless, efficient workflow, enabling engineers to select and deploy databases effortlessly and manage multiple tenancy-aware environments." "Our breakthrough came with the development of specialized tooling. We introduced Local Developer Analytics (LDA) to pinpoint bottlenecks, enhanced IDE performance, and created Cerberus and Bits for efficient service interaction and integration testing. The culmination of our efforts was Devpod, a remote development environment seamlessly integrating with local IDEs." The impact was profound: doubling PRs per developer per week, slashing build times by over 70%, and reducing large code deployment to under 15 minutes. Our innovations not only accelerated development but also significantly boosted team morale, as reflected in our green NPS/CSAT scores - a first in Uber's history. Recognizing the scarcity of such resources in the market, Debo Ray and Rob Fletcher founded DevZero. Our mission is to empower engineering teams everywhere with the tools that transformed our work at Uber, driving unparalleled efficiency and velocity in software development.

Tanagram is building a collection of tools for developers to rapidly navigate, search, and edit code across big codebases, especially those that span multiple repos.
