Company
Tracecat
Open source AI-native security automation
We made Tracecat, an open source platform that helps security teams automate their workflows, manage cases, and build with an AI copilot. It integrates agents, workflow automation, and AI assistance to reduce manual work in security operations.
We live in New York City, and we plan to keep the company based here after YC.
We're here already and have built our network locally. It's where we understand the market and can reach security teams directly.
