Tsuga has emerged from stealth with a $10 million seed round led by General Catalyst, with participation from Singular and a roster of well-known angels, unveiling a new observability architecture designed for the AI era. Founded in 2024 by Gabriel-James Safar and Sébastien Deprez, the team aims to solve the escalating cost, complexity, and data-loss issues facing enterprises as AI-driven development and microservices dramatically expand telemetry volumes.
Tsuga positions its platform as a cloud-scale system that captures all logs, metrics, and traces without forcing teams to choose between convenience and governance. Its bring-your-own-cloud model deploys directly into customer environments on AWS, Google Cloud, or Azure, keeping operational data fully controlled while reducing transfer and storage overhead. The company promises predictable, sublinear cost scaling and long-term data retention under a unified pricing structure.
Built with OpenTelemetry collectors and open data formats, Tsuga enables customers to route telemetry into data lakes or AI pipelines to support advanced machine learning workflows. Early adopters in frontier tech, finance, and media have already validated the platform’s approach as the company prepares to accelerate product development and customer expansion.
