Korvalis
Just-in-time cloud access with a guard watching the session
Korvalis watches your cloud and shuts down any destructive session in seconds, whoever's behind it. Just-in-time access, no proxy, live in minutes. Free to start.
The most expensive bottleneck in a small company is usually the person holding the keys.
We know, because one of us was that person.
A project missed its deadline because a developer sat waiting for access, and the CTO who could grant it forgot. Developers interrupted sales calls to ask for permissions. Mute the client, approve, unmute, apologize. That was the security system.
The alternative was worse. Hand out broad access and any tired engineer, contractor, or agent holding a key is one command from taking production down. Nobody is watching at 3am. You find out in the morning.
For years that felt like the cost of shipping. It's not. The tools that fix this wanted an enterprise contract and a security team we didn't have. Small teams just get told to be careful.
So we're building Korvalis.
It hands out cloud access when a task needs it, approves it in Slack, and takes it back on its own. Nobody has to remember to revoke anything.
Then it watches the session. Korvalis runs inside your own cloud account and reads what a live session is actually doing. When one turns destructive, it cuts it off in seconds. It judges intent instead of matching commands against a list, so it can tell an engineer debugging a slow query from a session about to drop the database.
It starts in observe mode. It watches, and tells you what it would have stopped. You trust it the way you trust a new hire: you watch them work before you hand over the keys. That's the only version of this we'd install on our own infra.
Being straight about where we are: this is a waitlist today, not a signup. The first version runs and we're onboarding the first teams now. No proxy, nothing leaves your account, and you can bring your own model.
Would you let software cut off a live session in your cloud on its own? Where's your line?
