Software that keeps itself running is where agents unlock the most value today.

I build a lot with coding agents. Shipping code isn't my bottleneck anymore. Now I spend more time figuring out what broke in production and why.

@traversal_ai solves this by mapping how your production systems fit together and tracing incidents back to the root cause.

Their growth is insane! Teams at Nubank, Harvey, PepsiCo, and DigitalOcean use it daily. They just raised $120M at a $1B valuation. Huge milestone for AI SRE.
