Kura is a DevOps copilot that helps software teams manage their cloud infrastructure. Kura integrates directly with services like AWS to help respond to incidents, provision resources, and search over your entire cloud. Developers today spend 30% of their time managing cloud infra, and we cut that by 10x so teams can get back to shipping features quickly. Kura's founding team includes CEO Mark Dawson, an engineer and second time founder, and CTO Trevor Reed, former Google engineer and Mars Rover driver at NASA JPL.
