Qovery is a DevOps automation platform founded in 2019 by Romaric Philogène, Pierre Mavro, and Morgan Perry. Headquartered in Paris, France, the company aims to simplify cloud infrastructure management, enabling developers to focus more on coding and less on deployment complexities.
In late 2019, Qovery participated in the Techstars acceleration program, marking a significant milestone in its early development. The following year, in September 2020, the company secured a $1 million pre-seed investment from prominent figures such as Alexis Lê-Quôc, co-founder and CTO of Datadog, and Sébastien Pahl, co-founder of Docker.
