CtrlB, a unified data platform for observability and security, has raised $2.5 million in a seed funding round led by Chiratae Ventures. Equirus, InnovateX Fund, Campus Fund, and Point One Capital also participated.
The company will use the capital to scale its diskless data lake platform, speed up R&D efforts, and file patents for its indexing and compression technology. CtrlB will also work toward SOC 2 and ISO 27001 certifications as it prepares for broader enterprise adoption.
As part of its expansion plans, CtrlB will increase its team size to 50–60 members across distributed systems, DevOps, solution architecture, and sales. The company will strengthen partnerships in the cloud and DevOps ecosystem and grow its operations across India and the United States.
Founded in 2023 by Adarsh Srivastava (CEO), CtrlB provides a unified data engine designed to manage large volumes of telemetry data including logs, metrics, events, and traces.
Earlier known as Dev0, the platform replaces cost-heavy observability and SIEM systems by offering a high-speed, cost-efficient data lake built on a proprietary probabilistic indexing and compression algorithm.
CtrlB supports enterprises by reducing storage costs and enabling quick analysis of large data sets. Its clients include Limechat and GoComet, who use the platform to improve debugging efficiency and manage data growth.
