# Evorrelate

*/Startups/Evorrelate*

## Startup Overview

Site reliability and DevOps teams handle an unsustainable volume of disconnected alerts during system degradation, forcing on-call engineers to manually trace failures across disparate dashboards. This incident response engine digests those fragmented observability warnings and maps them directly into interconnected root-cause graphs. The system continuously analyzes incoming unstructured telemetry to pinpoint the exact fault line of an outage in real time.

Legacy event correlation tools like Datadog, Splunk ITSI, and Moogsoft require rigid data structures and exhaustive parsing rules before they can process cross-platform alerts. In contrast, this solution operates with a completely schema-agnostic ingestion layer. It instantly absorbs logs, metrics, and traces from any monitoring stack without prior configuration, rendering complex incident topologies seconds after the initial warning fires.

Traditional platforms also penalize comprehensive monitoring by charging steep fees based on raw data ingestion volume. This architecture eliminates that friction by utilizing an outcome-priced model where organizations pay strictly per resolved incident. It aligns operational costs directly with actionable system recovery, allowing engineering teams to ingest all available telemetry data without financial constraint.

## Startup Offer

**Proof**:
- Targeting a 60% reduction in raw alert volume presented to on-call engineers.
- Aiming to completely eliminate manual log-schema mapping during onboarding.
- Designed to connect Datadog, Splunk, and proprietary tool alerts into unified incident timelines without rule-writing.
**Tiers**:
- Name: Standard Correlation · Price: ~$15–$25 per resolved incident · Inclusions: Schema-agnostic ingestion from up to 3 observability platforms, automated root-cause graph generation, and Slack/Teams routing for up to 500 incidents per month.
- Name: Enterprise Correlation · Price: ~$8–$14 per resolved incident · Inclusions: Unlimited ingestion sources, custom confidence thresholding, intended bi-directional syncing with Jira Service Management, and enterprise volume scaling.
**Guarantee**: If an incident graph fails to accurately include the originating root-cause alert, the correlation is flagged as incomplete and you are not charged for that incident's resolution.
**Business Function**: ProvideService
**Objection Handlers**:
- Objection: We don't want to pay for false positives or noisy alerts. Rebuttal: Evorrelate uses outcome-based pricing; you are only billed for validated, grouped incident graphs, never for raw alert ingestion.
- Objection: It will take months to map our custom internal alert schemas. Rebuttal: The system is built to be strictly schema-agnostic, using LLMs to infer payload structures without requiring you to map fields or write parsing rules.
- Objection: We already pay Datadog or Moogsoft for AIOps. Rebuttal: Legacy AIOps requires heavy rule configuration and vendor lock-in; Evorrelate is designed for instant, zero-configuration ingestion across fragmented, multi-vendor toolchains.
- Objection: How do we know it won't suppress a critical outlier alert? Rebuttal: Any alert that fails confidence checks for correlation is automatically routed to an unmapped queue for human review rather than being suppressed.

## Startup Buyer Chain

**Chain**: Evorrelate → VP of Engineering → Site Reliability Engineer
**Gtm Motion**: Acquires SRE teams via a self-serve entry where engineers connect their existing alerting pipelines with zero upfront cost, driven by the outcome-priced per-resolved-incident model. Expands across the broader engineering organization as initial pods demonstrate reduced mean time to resolution (MTTR) and advocate for enterprise-wide ingestion.
**Agent Channel**: Designed to be indexed as a structured API capability within Model Context Protocol (MCP) server lists and AI agent registries, allowing autonomous incident-response agents to dynamically discover and invoke root-cause graph generation during automated triage.
**Primary Channel**: Discovery via targeted keyword searches for alert fatigue and alert deduplication on technical forums like Hacker News and r/sre, alongside intended presence in the PagerDuty and Opsgenie integration directories.

## Startup Proof Points

_Illustrative — target and order-of-magnitude estimate figures, not an achieved track record (this Thing is concept-stage)._

**Pilot Goals**:
- 14-day shadow deployment: Ingest alerts from up to three existing observability platforms in parallel with current routing to prove root-cause graph accuracy.
- 30-day billing comparison: Measure the cost of Evorrelate's per-resolved-incident model against legacy per-alert AIOps ingestion fees during an active on-call rotation.
**Target Metrics**:
- Target: 60% reduction in raw alert volume presented to on-call engineers
- Aim: 0 manual log-schema mapping rules required during initial onboarding
- Target: 100% elimination of charges for false-positive or incomplete incident correlations
**Target Case Studies**:
- Mid-market SaaS SRE team: Replaces manual Datadog and Splunk cross-referencing with automated, unified incident timelines without writing parsing rules.
- Enterprise DevOps department: Transitions from rigid, rule-heavy legacy AIOps to zero-configuration ingestion, capturing multi-vendor root causes immediately.
- Fintech platform engineering group: Shifts from paying for noisy raw alert ingestion to outcome-based pricing, paying only for validated, root-cause-identified incident graphs.
**Testimonial Targets**:
- VP of Engineering: Validates the immediate deployment speed enabled by LLM-inferred payload structures replacing manual field mapping.
- Lead SRE: Confirms that paying per resolved incident eliminates the budget anxiety associated with sudden alert storms and false positives.
- Incident Commander: Expresses confidence in the unmapped queue routing, proving the system flags ambiguous outliers rather than silently suppressing them.

## Startup Top Risks

**Risks**:
- Severity: existential · Description: Datadog or Splunk releases a native root-cause graphing feature that leverages their existing data lock-in to render a standalone correlation tool obsolete. · Mitigation Status: unmitigated
- Severity: high · Description: Outcome-based pricing models lead to invoice disputes when customers argue their internal engineering teams resolved the incident rather than the platform. · Mitigation Status: in-progress
- Severity: high · Description: Schema-agnostic ingestion generates excessive noise from unstructured log formats and breaks the accuracy of the incident graphs. · Mitigation Status: in-progress
- Severity: moderate · Description: Third-party API rate limits from upstream alerting tools throttle the real-time data ingestion required for instant graph generation. · Mitigation Status: unmitigated

## Startup Story Brand

**Hero**:
- **Need**: to be the tactical investigator who resolves outages, not the janitor cleaning noisy logs
- **Want**: to find the single root cause amidst thousands of fragmented observability alerts
- **Identity**: on-call SREs and incident leads at high-scale tech companies
**Plan**:
- Step: Ingest alerts · Detail: Send raw alert streams from any provider; the engine infers structures without manual field mapping.
- Step: Verify graphs · Detail: Review the auto-generated root-cause timeline that groups symptom alerts around the originating failure.
- Step: Resolve faster · Detail: Close the incident using the Slack-integrated graph and only pay for successfully grouped resolutions.
**Guide**:
- **Empathy**: Does your incident response still stall during the manual correlation of fragmented alerts from Datadog and Splunk?
**Problem**:
- **Villain**: alert fatigue
- **External**: Datadog and Splunk notify you of 500 downstream symptoms when only one microservice actually failed, forcing hours of manual triage.
- **Internal**: You feel the constant dread of missing a critical failure while buried in repetitive paged notifications.
- **Philosophical**: Engineering intelligence belongs in solving architectural failures, not in manually mapping log schemas across multi-vendor toolchains.
**Success**: Incident responders see one clear root-cause graph instead of five hundred alerts, slashing triage time and eliminating alert fatigue.
**One Liner**: Every incident, on-call SREs struggle with alert fatigue. Evorrelate maps fragmented observability alerts into root-cause incident graphs so teams resolve outages faster.
**Positioning**:
- **So That**: you only pay for resolved root-cause incident graphs
- **Unlike**: Moogsoft or manual Splunk rules
- **For Whom**: on-call SREs and incident leads
- **Category**: AIOps incident correlation platform
**Call To Action**:
- **Direct**: Generate incident graphs
