About

Release is a United States-based Environments as a Service (EaaS) platform — backed by Sequoia Capital with seed funding — providing development teams with ephemeral, test, QA, and staging environments that can be created on-demand from CI/CD pipelines, pull request triggers, or manual deployment commands, using 'environments as code' configuration through Release's Application Template to ensure consistent, reproducible environment creation across every branch and deployment. Release addresses the developer productivity bottleneck created by shared staging environments — where multiple teams compete for limited staging capacity, environment conflicts break deployments, and developers wait days for staging access that delays testing and release velocity.

About

Ankr is a Web3 infrastructure platform offering remote procedure call node access to more than 30 blockchain networks through a globally distributed network of nodes run by independent operators. Unlike centralized providers that operate their own data centers exclusively, Ankr's decentralized architecture routes requests across geographically distributed nodes, improving latency for users in regions underserved by US- or EU-centric infrastructure. Its public free-tier RPC endpoints — available for Ethereum, BNB Chain, Polygon, Avalanche, Fantom, and dozens of others — have made Ankr one of the most widely used infrastructure providers in the multi-chain developer ecosystem.
