Your developers shouldn't have to be
cloud DevOps engineers too.
Rivia is the cloud ops team dev-only teams are missing: senior engineers who handle security, cost, root cause, and reliability for you, backed by a platform built for your environment. You get the coverage of a specialist hire without making one.
Why I built this
I kept watching the same gap play out, and nobody had built the right thing to close it.
Working across hundreds of client engagements, I kept running into the same situation: teams staffed entirely with developers, smart and capable people, who were also being asked to manage cloud infrastructure, respond to security findings, investigate incidents, and keep cloud costs under control. Work they were not hired for and did not have the background to do confidently.
The typical response was to bolt on tools: a security scanner here, a cost dashboard there, an uptime monitor somewhere else. But none of it was connected, and nobody was actually fixing anything. Findings piled up with no context for what mattered. Costs drifted with no one watching. Incidents took hours to diagnose because nobody had the ops experience to know where to look.
I built Rivia because I got frustrated enough to make the thing I wished I could hand every one of those teams. Not another point tool, and not just a dashboard; a managed team with the automation, intelligence, and expert backup that fills the specific gap a dev-only team has.
The problem is the gap, not the team
Dev teams aren't dropping the ball. They're being asked to cover a specialization they don't have. Rivia fills that gap: it doesn't replace your developers, it gives them the cloud ops team they're missing, backed by a platform tuned to how you actually run.
Engineers first, tooling second
Security, cost, uptime, root cause, inventory, and app scanning are all connected and all monitored by the same team. When a security finding drives a cost spike, your engineer sees both and acts on the relationship, not just the alert.
Built from patterns, not guesswork
Every automation behind Rivia's managed services was built because I saw the same manual work repeated across dozens of client environments. It knows what to look for because I've already looked for it hundreds of times, and now a person is looking too.
What this looks like in practice
Without a cloud ops layer,
these are the things that
quietly go wrong.
None of this is your developers' fault. It's what happens when the tools and expertise to manage a cloud environment aren't there, even when the team is talented and working hard.
Cloud Managed Services
One team, backed by one platform,
covering everything your cloud environment needs.
Rivia's Cloud Managed Services puts senior engineers behind security, cost, DevOps, application reliability, and AI, so nothing gets triaged by guesswork and nothing sits in a backlog. The platform underneath is built into the engagement, customized to your stack, and does the connecting work so your engineer can do the fixing work.
Automated Security Analysis
No more noiseFindings across your cloud, code, and dependencies are automatically analyzed, prioritized by real-world impact, and worked by your engineer. Your developers see what's already being fixed, not a wall of scanner output.
Cloud Cost Management
Know before the bill arrivesAutomated spend tracking, anomaly detection, and daily cost reporting across every account, with an engineer who traces anomalies back to the cause before it compounds.
Automated Root Cause Analysis
Minutes, not hoursWhen something breaks, the platform traces it automatically and your engineer takes it from there, whether it's a security incident, cost spike, or application failure.
Living Infrastructure Map
Always know what you're runningA continuously updated inventory of every resource across every connected account: what it is, what it costs, what it exposes. The kind of asset visibility that used to require a dedicated ops team, now built into your engagement.
Application Security Scanning
Catch it before it shipsDependency vulnerabilities, secrets accidentally committed, and container image issues surface automatically and get worked into remediation, not just flagged during an audit or after a breach.
Uptime & Availability
Alert before customers noticeContinuous availability monitoring across every public and internal endpoint, with an engineer responding to degradation before it becomes an outage.
One email. Everything your team needs to know. No dashboard required.
New security findings, cost changes, resolved incidents, and today's priorities, written in plain English and delivered automatically every morning. Your team starts the day informed, and knows an engineer is already on it.

How it works
Connected and running in a day.
Connect your cloud
Read-only access to your AWS, Azure, or GCP account. Rivia maps your full environment (assets, configs, spend, endpoints, and code) in minutes. No agents, no infrastructure changes, no disruption to your team.
Your platform gets tuned to your environment
Security findings get automatically analyzed and triaged, cost anomalies surface before the bill arrives, and root cause traces itself, customized to how your stack actually runs.
Direct access to a senior engineer, not a support queue
Every managed tier puts a senior engineer on your cloud: incident response, architecture questions, and scoped project work. You reach me directly, not a ticketing system, not an account manager.
The value case
The alternative isn't free.
It just shows up in different places.
Without managed cloud ops, dev teams absorb the cost in three ways: engineer time spent on work outside their expertise, cloud spend that drifts upward with no one watching, and security or compliance gaps that eventually require an expensive fix.
Rivia addresses all three, and costs less than one month of a part-time cloud consultant. It doesn't need to be perfect to pay for itself; it just needs to catch one overlooked misconfiguration, surface one cost anomaly early, or save your team from one 3am incident investigation.
One platform. Everything covered. No specialist hire.
All six tools included at every tier. The only variable is your cloud spend.

What customers say
"We had a wall of scanner findings and no one to act on them. Rivia closed the gaps that were blocking us from winning enterprise deals."
Joe Veglatte
CEO, Brandecation
"Having cloud ops coverage within our budget let us actually build a security program instead of just worrying about one."
Matthew White
CTO, Storefront

Josh Brunson
Founder, Owl.i
