About MyDecisive.AI

MyDecisive.AI, founded in 2023, is a company operating in the business and productivity software industry, with a focus on observability solutions. The firm was established by veterans of the big data and observability sectors, including CEO Ari Zilka, who brings extensive experience from roles such as CTO of Hortonworks and general manager at New Relic. This background in enterprise infrastructure, cloud computing, and data management, including contributions to technologies like Apache Hadoop, has shaped the company's direction. Headquartered in Portola Valley, CA, with a distributed team, the company secured its seed funding in August 2023 from a combination of angel investors and venture capital firms, including AZ-VC.

The company's core offering is an open-source, self-service control plane for OpenTelemetry called the Smart Telemetry Hub. This platform is not a replacement for existing monitoring solutions but rather works alongside them to give DevOps engineers and IT leaders control over their telemetry data flow and associated costs. MyDecisive.AI targets enterprises looking to move beyond passive monitoring to a more automated and intelligent approach to system observability. The business model centers on empowering organizations to reduce their observability spending, with claims of potential savings between 70-90%, by providing tools for dynamic data filtration and automation. The platform is built on open-source components and OpenTelemetry standards, allowing it to integrate with a client's full telemetry stream.

The product transforms passive monitoring into intelligent, programmable automation. Instead of relying on traditional dashboards and reactive alerts, the Smart Telemetry Hub continuously interprets data to detect patterns and initiate proactive solutions. Key features include dynamic data filtration, which provides contextual data selection for better system visibility, and automated, context-aware tracing for critical system moments. A significant benefit is the ability to filter data to control costs while maintaining a data backfill that can be replayed on demand. The platform is designed to be action-oriented, automatically optimizing, securing, and adjusting systems based on real-time conditions, thus moving IT from a reactive to a strategic function.
