Observability startup Coralogix Ltd. announced today that it has acquired machine learning observability startup Aporia Technologies Ltd. for an undisclosed sum.

Founded in 2019, Aporia offers a machine-learning observability platform that specializes in monitoring and controlling undetected defects and failures in machine learning models. The company offers tools for data scientists and machine learning teams to monitor, manage, investigate and improve their models in production.

Aporia’s platform supports various machine learning use cases and model types, allowing users to define customization to meet their specific needs. Key features of the platform include detecting data drift, bias, data integrity issues and performance degradation to ensure that models operate reliably and transparently.

In addition to observability, Aporia provides artificial intelligence guardrails that are designed to secure AI systems against risks such as hallucinations, data leakage and prompt attacks in real time. The guardrails enhance the safety and reliability of AI deployments, making Aporia’s platform a popular choice for startups and Fortune 500 companies across various industries.

Notable Aporia customers include Lemonade Insurance Co., DoorDash Inc., MunichRe, Robert Bosch GmbH, Sixt SE and Course Hero Inc.

For Coralogix, the acquisition will deliver an observability platform that combines insights from both AI and software applications to allow users to gain end-to-end visibility and drive actionable insights for faster and better business results. The acquisition is also expected “to create a significant technological player in the global market with unique technological advantages.”

As part of the acquisition deal, Coralogix will be launching a dedicated AI research center, Coralogix AI. The center, in which Coralogix expects to invest tens of millions of dollars over the next two years, will focus on solving fundamental problems in AI, including transparency, security, monitoring, governance and control.

Post-acquisition, Coralogix customers will benefit from a unified observability platform that bridges the gap between AI systems and traditional software, one that provides visibility across data pipelines, infrastructure and applications, eliminating blind spots and enabling actionable insights.

“Using Aporia’s technology and expertise, hundreds of AI teams already using Coralogix today will be able to enjoy high-quality visibility, protection and control over their AI systems,” said Coralogix Chief Executive Officer Ariel Assaraf. Chief Technology Officer Yoni Perin added that the “expansion strengthens Coralogix’s commitment to taking our AI strategy and delivering the best tech to our customers” and “our new research center will foster AI innovation and collaboration, providing our clients with the tools and environment needed to drive the future of AI systems.”

Coming into its acquisition, Aporia had raised $30 million over two rounds, including a round of $25 million in February 2022. Investors in the company included Tiger Global Management, Samsung Next Ventures, TLV Partners Ltd. and Vertex Ventures Israel Ltd.
