AutoRABIT
AutoRABIT is an enterprise DevSecOps and release-management platform built for the Salesforce ecosystem. It combines CI/CD automation (ARM), static code and security analysis (CodeScan), data and metadata backup and recovery (Vault), and security posture management (Guard) so teams in regulated industries - banking, financial services, healthcare, and government - can ship Salesforce changes quickly while keeping security and compliance intact. Founded in 2015 and bootstrapped for its first five years, the company is headquartered in San Francisco and serves customers including ABN AMRO, Cigna, and CyberArk.
Prodly
Prodly is a Palo Alto-based software company that builds DevOps automation for Salesforce, focused on the parts of the platform that most deployment tools ignore: configuration data. Its AppOps suite handles release management, sandbox seeding, automated regression testing, data migration and compliance reporting so admins and developers can move CPQ, Revenue Cloud and other low-code changes between environments without hand-copying records or breaking production. Founded in 2014 by Max Rudman - who previously founded SteelBrick, the product Salesforce acquired and rebranded as Salesforce CPQ - Prodly raised a $10M Series A in 2021 and positions itself as the tool teams add when relational data deployment is the gap other DevOps platforms leave open.
Copado
Copado is the leading AI-powered DevOps platform built natively for Salesforce and other low-code business applications. Founded in Madrid in 2013 by two Salesforce release engineers tired of brittle, manual deployments, Copado unifies planning, building, testing, and releasing with built-in automation, governance, and trust. More than 1,750 global brands - including Coca-Cola, T-Mobile, Medtronic, and Volkswagen - use Copado to ship Salesforce changes faster and more safely, and the company reached unicorn status after a $140M Series C in 2021.
