About Lemma

AI agents will soon handle the majority of the world's economic work. Lemma makes sure they're reliable.

We build production monitoring that catches the silent failures observability tools miss, then turns production data into self-healing loops that make agents better automatically. Some of the fastest-growing startups in SF already run on Lemma, and we process millions of agent conversations a day.

Backed by Y Combinator (F25), Matrix, Liquid 2, and operators from OpenAI, xAI and DoorDash. We hire people who act like founders: mission-driven, biased toward action, and obsessed with craft.
