AI operations startup Ciroos has raised $21 million in funding led by Energy Impact Partners (EIP) to revolutionize enterprise observability with the launch of the industry’s first extensible, multi-domain AI SRE Teammate.
Designed to serve as a virtual assistant for Site Reliability Engineers (SREs), DevOps, and operations teams, the AI-driven platform aims to cut incident response times by up to 90 percent, marking a strategic shift toward autonomous enterprise operations.
Innovation in Observability and AI Integration
Ciroos’ core innovation lies in its AI SRE Teammate, a next-generation system built on advanced architectures like the Model Context Protocol (MCP) and Agent 2 Agent (A2A) frameworks. Unlike traditional dashboard-based monitoring and static runbooks, this platform employs multi-agent reasoning to proactively detect and analyze anomalies across dynamic, multi-domain enterprise environments — often before human responders are engaged.
The platform is extensible, enabling seamless integration with existing enterprise tools such as observability platforms, ticketing systems, code repositories, and collaboration software. It’s designed to work alongside human experts, giving organizations flexibility to choose their level of AI augmentation or autonomous operations. This innovation directly addresses the increasing strain on SRE teams as AI-enhanced development accelerates operational complexity.
Strategic Vision for Autonomous Operations
Founded in February 2025 by Ronak Desai, Amit Patel, and Ananda Rajagopal, the Ciroos leadership team combines decades of experience from companies like Cisco, AWS, and Gigamon, along with 84 patents across cloud, AI, cybersecurity, and distributed systems. Their strategic vision is to automate the operational burdens of incident analysis and remediation while enabling teams to focus on innovation and system reliability.
“We built our AI SRE Teammate to eliminate repetitive toil and turn SREs into superheroes,” said Ronak Desai, co-founder and CEO. “Our platform enables faster root cause detection, smarter automation, and greater control, empowering teams to build and safeguard resilient systems.”
Investment and Go-to-Market Strategy
The $21 million investment will be used to expand go-to-market operations and accelerate enterprise deployment of the AI SRE Teammate. The company is also aggressively hiring AI engineers, full-stack developers, and GTM talent to support rapid growth.
Investor confidence reflects the platform’s potential. “Ciroos delivers immediate, measurable impact,” said Shawn Cherian, partner at EIP. “Their experience and vision to drive autonomous operations positions them as a game-changer in AI-powered enterprise reliability.”
