The result is cleaner data, reduced ingestion costs, and faster root cause analysis using the tools you already rely on.

Mesmo integrates with platforms like Datadog, Dynatrace, and Open Source Stacks, giving teams more control without adding operational overhead.

This is especially useful for platform engineers and SREs supporting complex, distributed systems where context and speed matter.

I'm curious about scalability, right?

And where it came into play when you first joined and took on, you know, this building this new product.

I'm curious how you approached it in the beginning, but I'm also, I'm really interested in where you've had to fight it as you've grown.

As you step out on the balcony, you look across all that you've built thus far with GlassWall.

What are you most proud of?

Let's flip the script a little bit.

Tell me about a mistake you made and how you and your team responded to it.

Your coding agents have access to your code base.

Maybe you even connected other tools via MCPs, but access doesn't mean context.

Agents can't reason across MCPs.

They don't know your architectural decisions, your team's patterns, or why the API was shaped the way it is.

So agents look in the wrong place and deliver bad outputs.

Then you spend time correcting more loops, more tokens.

Unblocked is the context layer your agents are missing.
