Secure execution: Agents in sandboxes with relaxAI

The hard part of deploying AI agents isn't the agent. It's the environment around it. As organisations move from AI experimentation into production, the question isn't just what agents can do; it's whether you can trust the environment they run in. Sandboxed execution gives you both the autonomy and the guardrails, keeping agents isolated, auditable, and under your control.

Every pilot is ready for engine failure: are your engineers? w/ Hamed Silatani (Uptime Labs)

Every pilot who's never had an engine failure is still ready for one. The same can't be said for most software engineers facing their first major incident. Hamed Silatani, co-founder and CEO of Uptime Labs, and former Head of Reliability Engineering at IG Group, has spent two decades watching engineers learn incident response the hard way: alone, under pressure, with no training.

Are AI Tools Actually Improving Developer Experience? (Experts Cut Through the Hype)

AI tools are spreading across the entire software development lifecycle - but are they actually making developers more productive, or just adding noise? In this panel from Context Conference, Najla Elmachtoub (Squadformers) moderates a sharp, no-fluff conversation with Nathen Harvey (Google, DORA program), Bill Harding (GitClear), and Jeremy Castile (GitKraken) on what's really working when it comes to AI and developer experience.

From Insight to Action: Operationalizing Logicmonitor + Catchpoint for Unified Observability

Visibility without control is just expensive awareness. Most IT teams can see when something’s wrong, but can’t easily tell who’s affected, why, or what to do next. In other words, they lack real control. In this in‑depth session, LogicMonitor’s Callum Brown and Brandon Delap showed how to move past that.

AI spend is exploding. Most companies cannot prove ROI.

Only 14% of CFOs can prove AI ROI. OpenAI’s gross margin fell from 40% to 33% in 2025, well below its 46% target. Even the AI providers cannot reliably predict what AI will cost. Companies are scaling AI faster than they can measure it: more tokens, more agents, more model calls, more spend moving through systems finance cannot yet see. Every board is asking the same question: What is this AI investment returning? Most companies cannot answer it. The ones that can will compound their advantage.

We're releasing the financial control plane for AI spend

Gartner forecasts $2.6 trillion in global AI spend this year. Most of it lands in invoices that don’t connect dollars to the developers who spent them, the customers they served, or the features they shipped. AI billing is a mess. CloudZero is the financial control plane for AI spend. Three capabilities, available today, reveal the by-customer, feature, and developer ROI of AI: 1. Real-time Spend: Capture every dollar spent on AI, at the source. 2.
