Port raises $18 million for open internal developer portal
Port’s developer portal allows users to define their own data models of the software catalog and unify metadata that exists in silos all over the tech-stack
Israeli startup Port, which develops an open internal developer portal, announced on Wednesday that it has raised $18 million in new funding for a total of $23 million raised. The Series A round was led by Team8 with participation from seed investor TLV Partners. Angel investors, including Yoav Landman (CTO of Jfrog), Shlomo Kramer (co-founder of Check Point, Imperva and Cato Networks), Aner Mazur (former CPO, Snyk), and Eyal Manor (former CPO, Twillo) joined the round.
Port’s developer portal allows users to define their own data models of the software catalog and unify metadata that exists in silos all over the tech-stack, from CI/CD data, through vulnerabilities, alerts, incidents and more.
The company also announced the launch of Port Ocean, an open source extensibility framework that enables to create exporters, self-service actions, automations and integrations and add them to Port.
"Every organization delivers software differently," said Zohar Einy, Port’s Co-founder and CEO. "This means that a developer portal must adjust itself to the developer's specific needs, the SDLC, and the engineering tech-stack. Port provides platform engineers and developer experience groups the tools to build the portal they need, streamlined with how the business does engineering, instead of forcing an opinionated and rigid structure and tools.
"Since Port launched last November, the company has gained hundreds of organizations using its developer portal, including dozens of paying customers. This success is driven by user involvement, with users offering features, creating integrations and sharing knowledge in Port’s community," added Einy.
