What OneGrep does

OneGrep is a DevOps Agent that helps engineers automate manual devops tasks. It works across integrations that teams have to search, correlate, and operate automated tasks like runbook automation during incidents. OneGrep specializes across devops tools to help teams release code faster and more reliably so that engineers can spend more time building rather than being trained in bespoke tools like Observability, Ci/Cd, or Infra. Achintya and Brian are technical co-founders who have deep domain expertise in building and operating systems at scale at Coinbase, Disney, and Amazon. Achintya led the Search Team at Disney enabling DisneyPlus to scale to 70M users in two weeks. Brian was a founding engineer on the team that built the Incident Management Platform at Amazon that helps 30k DAUs in Amazon resolve critical incidents every day.

AI Agent for DevOps Workflow Automation

What is your company going to make? Please describe your product and what it does or will do.

OneGrep is a DevOps agent that automates manual tasks engineers face every day. It connects across the myriad devops tools teams use - like observability, CI/CD, and infrastructure platforms - to automate runbook tasks, incident response, and searching for correlated data during incidents, letting teams release code faster and spend less time wrestling with bespoke tooling.

Where do you live now, and where would the company be based after YC?

We live in New York, NY, and plan to keep the company based here after YC.

Explain your decision regarding location.

We picked New York because it's where we are based and have strong network ties. Both founders have deep experience building and operating systems at scale from this region, and we see no reason to move elsewhere.
