Key Takeaways:

  • Raised $2.6M in pre-seed funding.
  • Built an AI control plane for software operations.
  • Automates deployments with human oversight.

SuperPlane, an open-source platform developing AI-powered automation for software engineering workflows, has raised $2.6 million in pre-seed funding. The round was led by Credo Ventures, with participation from First Momentum Ventures and several angel investors, including infrastructure and developer tools founders. The investment will support product development, customer expansion, and growth of the company's open-source ecosystem.

AI Control Plane for Engineering Teams

SuperPlane provides an AI-first control plane that enables human engineers and AI agents to collaborate safely across production workflows. The platform orchestrates tasks such as code reviews, testing, deployments, infrastructure management, approvals, incident response, rollbacks, and monitoring without replacing existing engineering tools.

Founded by former Semaphore leaders Darko Fabijan and Marko Anastasov, the company aims to solve the growing operational challenges created by AI-generated software.

Bringing Safety to AI-Driven Software Delivery

As AI accelerates software development, operational processes such as deployments, approvals, testing, and infrastructure management have become the new bottleneck. SuperPlane addresses this challenge with deterministic, policy-driven workflows that combine automation with human oversight.

The platform integrates with tools including GitHub, GitLab, AWS, GCP, Slack, PagerDuty, Datadog, OpenAI, and Claude, allowing engineering teams to automate production workflows while maintaining governance, visibility, and control.

AI is changing how software gets built, but the bigger challenge is what happens next. Engineering teams are about to face far more change flowing toward production, and the answer cannot be more manual coordination or more tribal knowledge. The future of operations is supervised automation through systems engineers can trust.

SuperPlane gives humans and agents a shared control plane for production workflows, with the context, guardrails, and deterministic execution needed to operate safely. We are building toward a future where engineering organizations can move at the speed of AI without losing control of the systems they depend on. This funding helps us accelerate that work with our design partners, early customers, and open-source community.” — Darko Fabijan, CEO of SuperPlane

Open-Source Growth

SuperPlane is available as an open-source platform and also offers a cloud beta with managed runners, workflow visualization, and an AI-powered platform engineering assistant. The company is working with early partners, including Confluent, to refine the platform while expanding its engineering team and ecosystem.
