Investing in Ewake: engineers’ best friend for software reliability

Imagine if, instead of engineers burning countless hours battling production fires, you had an AI teammate who never blinks, learns as it works, and actually fixes things. Result: peace of mind in production chaos.

Enter Ewake. Ewake’s AI agents sit on top of all your production data and tools and works alongside engineering teams. The platform proactively surfaces issues, recommends actions, and helps developers maintain service reliability with greater autonomy.

We’re excited to lead a €2m pre-seed round in Ewake and to back Poone and Omid’s mission to redefine software reliability with AI agents. And to share the journey with our friends from 2100 Ventures, Notion Capital, Amirhossein Malekzadeh, Nicolas Steegmann and Michele Attisani.

Flipping software reliability on its head

Engineers waste too much time on tedious maintenance and confusing dashboards. Traditional “observability” tools focus on collecting and visualising data, but the real value today is in analysis, triage, and action — moving from passive alerts to immediate, automated resolution.

The shift in value is huge: from gathering mountains of data actually to provide context to act quickly, solving engineering problems at scale.

The ROI is massive: SREs are rare and expensive. Ewake multiplies their impact — AI delivers the same results, 100x faster and 24/7.

AI is the new UI

As agentic AI becomes ubiquitous in enterprise software, users no longer read and write, browse, or search — they simply will prompt an outcome, and the system delivers. Ewake is a great example of it. Its production and observability agents show up where the work is happening and where the developers are.

No dashboards. No extra tools. UI-less

Insiders with an outsider’s point of view

One of my favourite theses in picking founders is looking for Insiders with an outsider’s point of view.

Ewake is born from pain. Poone and Omid have been in the trenches themselves, pulling all-nighters as SREs at Criteo 😵‍💫 where they gained deep insights into the problem of reliability chaos. They’re now building their own avatars — AI teammates that can solve production issues 100x faster, better, and always on.

These are Poone and Omid (not the AI teammates)

Looking Ahead

The team aims to broaden its agentic approach so every developer can more easily own and maintain their code, deepening the agents’ ability to learn from each environment, automating more manual tasks, and supporting rapid software delivery without compromising reliability.

We are thrilled to partner with them and support Ewake's mission to redefine software reliability and reshape how engineering teams ship code — and sleep at night 💤💤💤.
