Market Opportunity
CI status checks fail in CI — authenticated GitHub Status API proxy targets a $8.0B = 6M development teams x $1,333 ACV (enterprise & SMB CI/security tooling) total addressable market with medium saturation and a year-over-year growth rate of 18% (CI/CD & developer security tooling growth).
Key trends driving demand: Shifting to ephemeral CI environments -- increases need for short-lived, rotated credentials and secure API access patterns.; Platform hardening & API auth requirements -- more APIs require authenticated access, breaking naive scripts and creating demand for managed proxies.; Developer-first security adoption -- teams prefer lightweight, easy-to-integrate fixes before full security platform rollouts.; Serverless & edge compute maturation -- enables low-latency authenticated proxies without heavy infra costs..
Key competitors include Vercel, GitHub Actions / GitHub Apps, oauth2-proxy (open source), GitGuardian, Snyk.
