About
DevRev is a Palo Alto, California-based AI-powered platform founded in 2020 that addresses a long-standing organizational gap between customer support teams and product engineering teams. Having raised $100M in funding, DevRev's platform creates a unified environment where customer support tickets, product issues, developer tasks, and roadmap items live in a connected graph—enabling support agents to link customer-reported issues directly to engineering work items and giving product managers visibility into which bugs are most affecting customers. This bi-directional visibility breaks down the information silos that typically cause delays between when customers report problems and when developers understand and address them.
