Executive Summary

RunReveal is a SIEM replacement from former Cloudflare and Segment security and data-engineering leaders that charges for stored data instead of ingested data and folds pipelines, detections, and an AI investigation agent into one platform. Its named customers are infrastructure and AI companies such as Cursor, Sentry, Temporal, and ClickHouse, and ClickHouse is the notable one because RunReveal builds on ClickHouse's own database engine. RunReveal wins these buyers partly by giving up the protections a SIEM vendor usually keeps. Its docs say customers retain full control of their data, it deploys into the customer's cloud, and builds on an open-source engine, so customer-controlled deployments keep their data, leaving price, performance, and execution as RunReveal's retention levers.
