Grepr

Grepr is an infrastructure technology company headquartered in San Francisco, California. Founded by veterans of AppDynamics, Imply, and New Relic, the company develops software for observability and operational reliability. Grepr says its mission is to simplify the observability landscape so engineering teams can run reliable systems more efficiently and with less work.

The Grepr platform sits between telemetry sources and the observability tools an organization already uses. Its signal processor processes telemetry in real time, identifies patterns, and separates higher-value signals from repetitive or lower-value data. The company presents this approach as a way to reduce the volume and cost of data sent to downstream tools while retaining raw data for investigation and historical access.

Grepr’s products include a telemetry signal processor, a data lake, and Grepr AI, a platform for building operational agents. The signal processor shapes and optimizes telemetry, supports processing rules using streaming SQL, and can send compressed signals and summaries to existing systems. Grepr AI is designed to help agents investigate new data patterns and support actions related to performance, reliability, and security.

The company says its platform supports logs, traces, and metrics, and integrates with tools including Datadog, New Relic, Splunk, Dynatrace, Grafana, Amazon CloudWatch, and OpenTelemetry-compatible platforms. Grepr describes deployment as requiring a configuration change to existing collectors rather than replacement of customers’ observability tools. Its data-lake offering is intended to preserve raw telemetry in lower-cost object storage, which can be used for searches, investigations, or backfills.

Grepr serves engineering leaders, platform and site reliability engineering teams, and FinOps and cloud-cost teams. Its public customer examples include organizations that use the platform to reduce log or trace volume while keeping existing dashboards and alerts in place. The company’s website also describes use cases involving anomaly investigation, incident response, and operational agents that can work with systems already in use.

Grepr was founded by people with backgrounds in the observability industry. The company identifies Jad Naous as its founder and CEO and says its broader team has experience from companies including New Relic, LogicMonitor, and Imply. Its About page lists general availability in 2025; this is not independently stated as the company’s founding year.

Grepr describes its working principles as user-experience first, continuous improvement, delivering value, and putting the team first. It says it aims to make its products simple to adopt and use, welcomes feedback, and values collaboration, shared goals, and learning from both successes and failures.
