About Honeycomb
What is Honeycomb?
Honeycomb (honeycomb.io) is the observability platform engineering teams use to understand what's happening inside production systems — from debugging distributed services to LLM observability. Founded in 2016 by Charity Majors and Christine Yen, it pioneered modern observability practice and has raised nearly $147M through Series D.
