# Resourcely (acquired by Anysphere)

> Resourcely was a San Francisco cybersecurity startup that made cloud infrastructure secure and compliant by design. Its platform paired Blueprints - self-service templates that generate golden-path Terraform and OpenTofu - with Guardrails, a policy engine written in a human-friendly language called Really that catches misconfigurations before deployment. Founded in 2022 by Travis McPeak and Aladdin Almubayed and backed by $8M in seed funding, Resourcely was acquired by Anysphere (maker of the AI code editor Cursor) in July 2025, with McPeak joining to lead Cursor's security efforts.

## Products & services

- **Blueprints** — Self-service infrastructure templates (an abstraction over Terraform modules, defined in .tft files) that present developers a form and render golden-path Terraform/OpenTofu with safe, pre-approved configurations.
- **Guardrails** — A policy enforcement engine that embeds security and compliance rules into infrastructure code, catching misconfigurations before deployment as part of existing GitOps/CI-CD change-management workflows.
- **Really** — A structured, human-readable policy language purpose-built for writing infrastructure guardrails, with linting, autocomplete and suggestions - an alternative to writing dense policy in YAML or Rego.
- **Cloud Parameter Knowledge Graph** — An underlying model of cloud resources, parameters and their relationships that powers context-aware defaults, conditional policies and remediation guidance.
