Palo Alto-based Catio was awarded “Coolest Technology” at VentureBeat Transform 2025 in San Francisco on Wednesday. Founded in 2023, the company has raised $7 million to date, with a recent $3 million round announced in March. Catio was also a finalist and presented at VB Transform’s Innovation Showcase in 2024.
Catio’s AI Copilot for Tech Architecture reframes architecture as a living system—one that can be codified, introspected and intelligently evolved. By combining a real-time architectural map with a multi-agent AI organization, the solution helps engineering teams shift from reactive decision-making to continuous, proactive architecture excellence.
VentureBeat spoke with co-founder and CEO Boris Bogatin and product lead Adam Kirsh about their team and the company’s technology following the announcement of winners at Transform. “We’re a team of serial entrepreneurs and tech leaders who’ve all shared a deep personal problem,” Bogatin said. “While finance folks and developers all have tools, CTOs, architects, and developers all plan and optimize stacks on whiteboards and ad hoc spreadsheets. And we’re changing that with Catio.”
Catio is far more than a digital whiteboard for CTOs—it’s a reimagining of how architecture is understood, managed and evolved. The platform serves as a digital twin for your tech stack, offering continuous architecture visibility to inform more well-informed, data-driven architecture decisions. Designed to address the escalating complexity of modern tech stacks—including cloud infrastructure, container orchestration, monitoring and data pipelines—the platform replaces static diagrams and ad hoc snapshots with an interactive, high-fidelity system model. With Catio, architecture becomes a living, codified system—constantly updated, evaluated and advised by a network of intelligent AI agents.
From static diagrams to living systems
As an AI-driven tech stack copilot for technical leaders and engineering teams, Catio delivers real-time expert insights and actionable recommendations to help evaluate, plan and optimize infrastructure with clarity and confidence. The solution integrates with your existing technology stack—services like AWS, Kubernetes, Prometheus and more.
