About
groundcover is a cloud-native APM and observability platform using eBPF (extended Berkeley Packet Filter) kernel-level technology to provide zero-instrumentation observability — complete distributed tracing, metrics, and logs with no code changes, no SDKs, and no agents installed in application code. The company raised $35 million in Series B financing in April 2025 led by Zeev Ventures, reporting 500%+ ARR growth and hundreds of enterprise customers who have migrated off Datadog.
Claude Code launched February 2025 as Anthropic's agentic coding CLI — the first major AI coding tool to operate autonomously in the terminal without an IDE.
About
Claude Code is Anthropic's agentic software engineering tool, launched in February 2025 as a command-line interface that operates directly in developer terminals. Unlike IDE-based coding assistants (Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Windsurf), Claude Code operates at the shell level — reading and editing files, running tests, committing to Git, and executing long multi-step engineering tasks autonomously. It is built on Claude 3.7 Sonnet's extended thinking capability and is available as an npm package ($0.001–0.015 per token via Anthropic API).
