We raised $1M pre-seed round to simplify application deployment in the Cloud
Qovery is a DevOps Automation tool for developers. It helps any developer to deploy their applications in the cloud in seconds instead of days. Read more on Techcrunch...
“This pre-seed round is a great step for Qovery. Amazing business angels with strong Cloud industry expertise jumped on board. We are in a position to strengthen the team and tackle our next challenges with confidence. The coming months are going to be very exciting for Qovery.” - Romaric Philogene, CEO of Qovery.
Qovery was founded in 2019 by two experienced former engineers (Romaric Philogene and Pierre Mavro) at Red-Hat, Criteo, and Ullink. The Company has participated in the prestigious Techstars acceleration program in late 2019. A few months later, the Company raised $1M with top-notch investors from the best tech companies. Since then, the Company has expanded its footprint both in Europe and in the US.

Scaling your deployments to zero is only half the battle. If your cluster autoscaler does not aggressively bin-pack and terminate the underlying worker nodes, you are still paying for idle metal. True environment sleeping requires tight integration between your ingress layer and your node provisioner to actually realize FinOps savings.
The biggest mistake enterprises make when evaluating Kubernetes management platforms is confusing infrastructure provisioning with Day-2 operations. Tools like Terraform or kOps are excellent for spinning up the underlying EC2 instances and networking, but they do absolutely nothing to prevent configuration drift, automate certificate rotation, or right-size your idle workloads once the cluster is actually running.
For years, Red Hat OpenShift has been the safe choice for heavily regulated, on-premise environments. It operates as a secure fortress. But in the public cloud, that fortress acts as an expensive prison. Paying proprietary per-core licensing fees on top of your standard AWS or GCP compute bill is a redundant "middleware tax." Escaping OpenShift requires decoupling your infrastructure from your developer experience by running standard, vanilla Kubernetes paired with an agentic control plane.
Agentic Kubernetes resource reclamation is the practice of using an autonomous control plane to continuously identify, suspend, and delete idle infrastructure across a multi-cloud Kubernetes fleet. It replaces manual cleanup and reactive autoscaling with intent-based policies that act on business state, eliminating the configuration drift and cloud waste typical of unmanaged fleets.
Kubernetes focuses on container orchestration, but the reality on the ground is far less forgiving. Provisioning a single cluster is a trivial Day-1 exercise. The true operational nightmare begins on Day 2. Teams that treat multi-cloud fleets like isolated pets inevitably face crushing YAML configuration drift, runaway AWS bills, and severe scaling bottlenecks.
Rancher solved the Day-1 problem of launching clusters across disparate bare-metal environments. But in 2026, launching clusters is no longer the bottleneck. The real failure point is Day-2: managing the operational chaos, security patching, and configuration drift on top of them. Rancher is a heavy, ops-focused fleet manager that completely ignores the application developer. If your goal is developer velocity and automated FinOps, you must graduate from basic fleet management to an intent-based Kubernetes Management Platform like Qovery.
