# Triagestar

*/Startups/Triagestar*

## Startup Overview

Security operations centers face a constant barrage of endpoint alerts, forcing analysts to waste hours investigating harmless anomalies. This system operates as a fully autonomous Tier 1 security analyst. It directly ingests endpoint telemetry, correlates isolated alerts across the network environment, and definitively closes benign false positives without human intervention.

Traditional orchestration tools like Palo Alto Cortex XSOAR and Splunk SOAR require teams to build complex playbooks that still depend on manual review. Instead of providing a workflow builder, this solution executes triage autonomously from initial alert to final dismissal. The billing model charges exclusively per resolved security incident, directly aligning technical cost with eliminated alert fatigue rather than software seat licenses or ingested data volumes.

## Startup Founding Hypothesis

**Approach**: that correlates endpoint alerts and dismisses benign false positives

## Startup Offer

**Proof**:
- Aiming to reduce Tier 1 analyst alert queues by 70% for mid-market security operations centers.
- Targeting a sub-10-second median time to resolve for known benign endpoint false positives.
- Designing for immediate deployment via direct EDR API connections without requiring custom log parsers.
**Tiers**:
- Name: Standard Triage · Price: ~$2.00–$4.00 per resolved incident · Inclusions: Automated false-positive dismissal, intended integrations with major EDRs (e.g., CrowdStrike, SentinelOne), and 30-day incident retention for up to 10,000 resolved alerts per month.
- Name: Enterprise SOC · Price: ~$1.00–$2.50 per resolved incident · Inclusions: Custom SIEM connectors, multi-endpoint alert correlation, custom playbook mapping, and 1-year incident retention for up to 50,000 resolved alerts per month.
- Name: Managed Provider · Price: ~$0.50–$1.20 per resolved incident · Inclusions: Multi-tenant architecture support, white-labeled resolution reports, and priority API rate limits intended for MSSPs processing 100,000+ alerts per month.
**Guarantee**: If Triagestar incorrectly dismisses a critical alert that matches a known threat signature, the platform waives the current month's usage fees and provides a root-cause configuration update within 24 hours.
**Business Function**: ProvideService
**Objection Handlers**:
- Objection: We cannot trust an autonomous system to dismiss security alerts without human oversight. Rebuttal: The platform is designed to run in 'Shadow Mode' initially, tagging alerts for human review until your team verifies its accuracy.
- Objection: The system will mistakenly dismiss novel or zero-day threats. Rebuttal: Triagestar only auto-closes alerts that strictly match historically proven benign patterns; any anomaly or unrecognized behavior is immediately escalated to your analysts.
- Objection: Our security budget is tapped out from data-ingestion fees. Rebuttal: Pricing is based purely on successfully resolved incidents, meaning you only pay for actual analyst time saved, not for data volume or compute time.
- Objection: Integrating this with our existing SIEM and SOAR stack will take months. Rebuttal: Triagestar is intended to connect directly to standard EDR and SIEM APIs via OAuth, enabling day-one correlation without complex infrastructure changes.

## Startup Buyer Chain

**Chain**: Triagestar → SOC Director → Tier 2/3 Security Analysts → Enterprise IT Infrastructure
**Gtm Motion**: Acquisition runs through a direct sales motion offering a shadow-deployment proof of concept that runs parallel to existing Tier 1 analysts to prove the false-positive dismissal rate. Expansion drives revenue by applying the per-resolved-incident pricing model to broader data sources, such as identity and cloud posture alerts, once the endpoint correlation engine proves reliable.
**Agent Channel**: Intended to publish an OpenAPI capability schema to autonomous enterprise tool registries, allowing master AI orchestration frameworks to discover and call the alert-correlation engine as a specialized security triage function.
**Primary Channel**: Direct outbound campaigns intercepting CISOs and SOC Directors on LinkedIn who are actively posting open job requisitions for Tier 1 Security Analysts, pitching the autonomous resolution engine as an immediate headcount offset.

## Startup Proof Points

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

**Pilot Goals**:
- A 14-day Shadow Mode deployment on a single major EDR feed to prove a 99.9% match rate with human-analyst false-positive dismissals without impacting production data.
- A 30-day API integration test processing 10,000 historically benign alerts to validate sub-10-second resolution times and correct SIEM connector mapping.
**Target Metrics**:
- Target: 70% reduction in daily Tier 1 analyst alert queues.
- Aim: Sub-10-second median time to resolve known benign endpoint false positives.
- Target: 0 critical alerts incorrectly dismissed during active autonomous triage.
- Aim: 100% correlation match rate between Triagestar shadow mode and human-verified benign patterns.
**Target Case Studies**:
- A mid-market financial services SOC Director: Validating the reduction of Tier 1 alert queues by auto-dismissing historically proven benign endpoint false positives directly via EDR API.
- An MSSP VP of Operations: Proving the ability to handle 100,000+ alerts per month across a multi-tenant architecture while maintaining per-resolved-incident profit margins using white-labeled reports.
- An enterprise healthcare CISO: Demonstrating the reallocation of security analysts from manual log triage to proactive threat hunting by mapping custom playbooks to Triagestar auto-close routines.
**Testimonial Targets**:
