About Stacktrace

YC company profile

See and control what your agents actually do

Agents will do most of the work in the future, but only if teams can trust them unsupervised.
Stacktrace is the control layer for every agent: it sees every action, detects risky behavior, enforces the bounds your team sets, and steps in when an agent drifts from intent.
