We’re building an AI SRE for incident response. Parity is the new first line of defense for on-call engineers - it autonomously triages and responds to incoming alerts. The Problem - On-call Sucks! 🚨 Chances are you or someone you know has had a terrible on-call experience. 2am pings on the weekends. A week of lugging your laptop around to the gym, your best friend’s birthday party, etc. Engineers often write off the week knowing that they’ll make 0 progress on their actual work and instead spend it deep in k8s hell. The Solution - Parity! 🦾 Parity integrates with your alerting solution (i.e. PagerDuty, Datadog) to act as a new first line of defense for your k8s cluster. Before you’ve opened your laptop, Parity has already conducted an investigation to triage, determine root cause, and suggest a remediation. If you have runbooks, add them to Parity, connect them to your existing alerts, and Parity will follow them just like you would. Don’t have runbooks yet? No problem - given an alert or a prompt like “there were latency spikes in X service today from 1-3pm”, Parity will open an investigation, gather information from your cluster, and test several hypotheses to determine the root cause. We currently integrate with Kubernetes (via AWS or GCP), Datadog, and PagerDuty with more integrations coming soon! If there’s an integration you’d like to see, just let us know.

Pattern is an Embedded Insurance company that empowers any product or service provider to seamlessly integrate innovative protection products such as insurance, guarantee and service, into their customer proposition as a complementary add-on to their core offering. Every online transaction has associated risks for consumers - the weather might be bad during a camping trip, a flight may be cancelled or a vacation rental host may cancel the booking. We help businesses address these consumer concerns with personalized protection products. But unlike traditional insurance, these are much closer to the typical online consumer experience - simple, automated and hassle-free. Many of our protections are built on an innovative insurance product, which provides direct pre-agreed payment if a verifiable event occurs, without needing to prove any loss or file a claim. Via the merger with Setoo, Pattern is live in EMEA and its solution is rolling out in the US now.
