Sedai is backed by world-class investors who support its mission to transform cloud operations. Specific investor names are not listed on the company page, but their backing is highlighted as a mark of credibility.
Sedai manages $3 billion in total cloud spend for enterprise customers, has performed over 25 million optimization actions, and has caused zero production incidents, demonstrating its reliability and effectiveness.
Suresh Mathew, Sedai’s CEO, emphasizes that engineers should not spend their time on repetitive optimizations. Sedai was built to provide a safe, efficient, and autonomous platform that just works, freeing engineers to focus on more meaningful work.
Sedai defines 'toil' as repetitive, manual tasks in cloud operations—such as right-sizing containers and managing optimizations—that do not contribute to innovation or impactful engineering work.
The 'self-driving cloud' refers to Sedai’s autonomous platform that manages and optimizes cloud resources without manual intervention, aiming to make cloud operations more efficient, reliable, and cost-effective for businesses and engineers.
Sedai supports its mission by managing billions in cloud spend, performing millions of optimization actions, and maintaining a record of zero production incidents, all of which are concrete proof points of its platform’s reliability and value.
You can find customer testimonials and success stories on the Sedai customers page, where real users share their experiences and outcomes with the platform.
Sedai offers an autonomous cloud management platform that optimizes cloud operations for cost, performance, and availability. Key offerings include autonomous optimization, proactive issue resolution, release intelligence, and full-stack coverage across AWS, Azure, GCP, and Kubernetes. Specialized products include Sedai for S3 and Release Intelligence.
Sedai uses machine learning to autonomously optimize cloud resources, eliminating manual intervention. It continuously rightsizes workloads, eliminates waste, and optimizes for cost, performance, and availability based on real application behavior.
Sedai for S3 is a specialized solution that optimizes Amazon S3 costs by managing Intelligent-Tiering and Archive Access Tier selection. It delivers up to 30% cost efficiency gain and 3X productivity gain by reducing manual S3 management effort.
Release Intelligence is a feature that tracks changes in cost, latency, and errors for each deployment, helping teams improve release quality and minimize risks during deployments.
Sedai supports three modes of operation: Datapilot (observability), Copilot (one-click optimizations), and Autopilot (fully autonomous execution), providing flexibility for different operational needs.
Sedai’s platform offers autonomous optimization, proactive issue resolution, full-stack cloud coverage, smart SLOs, release intelligence, plug-and-play implementation, multiple operation modes, enhanced productivity, and safety-by-design. These capabilities reduce cloud costs by up to 50%, improve performance, and deliver up to 6X productivity gains.
Sedai provides detailed technical documentation covering platform features, setup, and usage. Access the documentation at docs.sedai.io/get-started and explore additional resources at sedai.io/resources.
Sedai integrates with monitoring and APM tools (Cloudwatch, Prometheus, Datadog, Azure Monitor), Kubernetes autoscalers (HPA/VPA, Karpenter), IaC and CI/CD tools (GitLab, GitHub, Bitbucket, Terraform), ITSM tools (ServiceNow, Jira), notification tools (Slack, Microsoft Teams), and various runbook automation platforms.
Sedai is SOC 2 certified, demonstrating adherence to stringent security and compliance standards for data protection. More details are available on the Sedai Security page.
Sedai’s setup process is quick and efficient: 5 minutes for general use cases and up to 15 minutes for specific scenarios like AWS Lambda. For complex environments, timelines may vary and a demo is recommended.
Getting started with Sedai is simple: it offers plug-and-play implementation, agentless integration via IAM, personalized onboarding sessions, and extensive documentation. A 30-day free trial is also available for risk-free evaluation.
Sedai provides personalized onboarding calls with its engineering team, a dedicated Customer Success Manager for enterprise customers, detailed documentation, a community Slack channel, and email/phone support.
