With $45 million in funding to date, Lightrun
is accelerating the integration of Generative AI capabilities into
its developer observability platform, automating end-to-end
production debugging
Lightrun, the global leader in developer observability, today
announced the launch of the industry's first Runtime Autonomous AI
Debugger, now available in private beta. By automating the entire
debugging journey – from the initial ticket to pinpointing the
exact culprit line of code in the IDE – Lightrun liberates
developers from the endless cycle of troubleshooting. This
innovative approach redefines observability and software debugging
by saving developers from spending 50% of their time on
troubleshooting, and cuts the operational MTTR of production
incidents to mere minutes. Lightrun also announced that it raised
an additional $18 million last year from GTM Capital and existing
investors Insight Partners and Glilot Capital, bringing the
company’s total funding to date to $45 million and solidifying its
position as a dominant player in the observability landscape.
Building on the success Lightrun has had with its F100
enterprise customers, including Salesforce, Microsoft, AT&T,
SAP, ADP, Priceline and Inditex among others, Lightrun has proven
its contribution to protecting revenue, managing risks associated
with production downtimes, and achieving enhanced customer
experience. By preventing downtime for mission-critical
applications, Lightrun is saving enterprises hundreds of millions
of dollars annually.
Lightrun’s new proprietary runtime debugging GenAI model,
designed to automate live production debugging, enables developers
to troubleshoot production applications and reduce MTTR from days
or weeks to mere minutes.
“Lightrun's solution tackles the challenges of integrating GenAI
into the software development lifecycle (SDLC). While CoPilot-like
solutions have undoubtedly boosted productivity, they've also
introduced new risks, such as code hallucinations and bugs.
Lightrun's Runtime Autonomous AI Debugger provides a safety
net, ensuring that the power of GenAI can be harnessed without
sacrificing code quality,” said Donald Weinstein, former CTO at
ADP.
How Shift Left Observability Works in the GenAI Era
Lightrun mimics and automates the existing developer workflow
for troubleshooting runtime issues. This iterative process involves
hypothesizing the potential root cause based on ITOps and
observability signals, then adding dynamic snapshots/logs
on-the-fly to specific lines of code using its dynamic
observability SDK, which enables line-by-line runtime debugging.
This cycle repeats until the root cause is identified. Lightrun’s
proprietary runtime debugging GenAI models suggest potential root
causes, validating these hypotheses with real-time production data
gathered by the SDK.
"Lightrun has made significant progress in the past six months,
tripling its revenues and transforming the debugging and
observability workflows for some of the largest F100 enterprise
customers. This transformation has enabled their popular and
mission-critical applications to achieve real-time observability
and debugging workflows that are operationally free and
developer-native," said Ilan Peleg, co-founder and CEO, Lightrun.
"While billions have been invested the last year in IDE-based GenAI
tools like Copilot for code generation, testing, and QA,
GenAI-based runtime debugging in the IDE has been the missing link.
Lightrun integrates seamlessly into the developer workflow—from
code writing to production operation—enabling a complete, automated
GenAI experience within the IDE. This integration ensures safe
GenAI transformations, enhancing both code quality and MTTR."
Native Developer Observability
Lightrun’s Developer Observability Platform enables developers
to add logs, metrics and snapshots to live applications - without
having to release a new version or even stop the running process.
The Platform consists of three critical layers:
- The Lightrun Client (IDE Plugin/CLI) which allows developers to
add new logs, snapshots, and metrics;
- The Lightrun SDK™ a bundled with every live application
instance and is in charge of instrumenting the live application
with new telemetry; and,
- The Lightrun Management Server which holds the state of the
system and provides an interface for administrators to configure
Lightrun’s privacy and security controls.
