We build the plumbing
so product teams don't have to.
Rivora started with a simple frustration: every product team ends up rebuilding the same fragile event pipeline. We think it should be infrastructure you can trust, written like code and never lose a thing.

Our story
Why Rivora exists
Most companies collect events from a dozen places and send them to a dozen more. The glue in between is usually a mix of vendor scripts, cron jobs and a queue someone set up years ago. It works until a field is renamed, a tool goes down or someone asks for last month's data again.
We built Rivora so that glue becomes a small amount of TypeScript in your repo, running on infrastructure that retries, keeps order and remembers everything. Product engineers can ship tracking with the same confidence as any other feature, and data teams get events they can trust.
Events are the record of what your product actually did. They deserve the same care as your database.
Today Rivora delivers billions of events a day for more than 1,400 teams, from two-person startups to public companies. We are a remote-first team of 64 across 14 countries, backed by investors who have built infrastructure companies before.
Values
How we work
Six principles we hire for, review against and come back to when decisions get hard.
Boring on purpose
Infrastructure should be the least interesting part of your day. We pick proven tools and earn the right to be exciting elsewhere.
Code over clicks
Pipelines belong in your repo, reviewed and tested like everything else. Our console is for looking, not for configuring.
Never lose an event
Every design decision starts with durability. If we have to choose, we choose correct over fast.
Small teams, real ownership
Teams of four to six own a part of Rivora end to end, from design to on-call.
Write it down
We are remote-first. Decisions live in documents anyone can read, not in meetings.
Be kind, be direct
Clear feedback, given with care, is how we get better. We assume good intent.
