groundcover is a full-stack observability platform built on a bring-your-own-cloud (BYOC) data plane with an adaptive eBPF sensor and native OpenTelemetry support to capture unsampled, high-fidelity telemetry across infrastructure, application and AI workloads. The platform stores telemetry inside customers' cloud premises with no sampling or cardinality limits and offers an Agent Mode experience to help engineers surface, troubleshoot and remediate issues while enabling agentic/autonomous operations. Since its 2021 founding, groundcover has grown to more than 250 paying customers, tripled ARR over the past year, achieved 3x year-over-year ARR growth and closed multiple seven-figure deals. The company doubled global headcount in the last year and plans to use new funding to scale go-to-market efforts, expand geographically, deepen partnerships with cloud providers and accelerate its AI and product roadmap.
