Ask Dave for any infrastructure task. Dave plans it, does it, and verifies it, with a Dave engineer reviewing the plan and your team approving before anything ships.

Case study
SETT builds agentic AI for mobile game marketing teams. Its engineers now send new infrastructure work and cost questions to Dave, and spend their time on the product.
Context first
One Slack message, every place the answer could be hiding. Dave checks your live infrastructure, recent changes, Terraform state, past incidents, and runbooks before it proposes anything.
Every answer traces back to what Dave actually looked at, and the fix still waits for your approval.

Every Dave change starts as a plan, not a commit, in the tool your team already reviews work in. You see what changes, what it could affect, what it costs, and how to undo it before anything runs. The plan is the contract.

Danielle Brooks (Dave human engineer) approved these changesAnatomy of a Dave plan
Try it: switch between GitHub, GitLab, Jira, and Linear, hover any part of the plan, then approve it and watch the proposed cost become a verified one.
Dave works in Slack and in the repos, clouds, and Terraform you already run. There is no new platform, portal, or dashboard for your team to learn.
Ask in plain language. Dave works out the steps, the tools, and the owners, so nobody writes a runbook or wires up an automation first.
You get a reviewed PR, an applied change, and a record of what was verified, instead of a list of suggestions to carry out yourself.

Backed by humans
Dave does the legwork. A Dave engineer in your time zone joins your shared Slack channel and stays accountable for the calls that need judgment. Your team still approves every change.

Who Dave is for
Every hour your product engineers spend on infrastructure comes off the roadmap. Dave takes that work, end to end.
When one infrastructure engineer supports ten developers, the queue always wins. Dave clears it inside your existing stack.
Bring the thing that's been stuck in the backlog. We'll show you Dave getting it done in your stack.
In their words
“The major thing that the human support at Dave allows us to do is basically to trust more, to come with much bigger requests, and to try much deeper work.”
Yoni BlumenfeldCo-founder and CTO, SETTCase study →“Our team clearly needed the backup, and hiring someone new was proving to be a nightmare. dave.io a shot eight months ago and we're still with them today. The work gets done, it gets done right, and I'm not babysitting anyone. I see us continuing with them for the foreseeable future”
“Dave has been excellent. The move from ClickOps to GitOps was smooth, thanks to their hands-on approach and DevOps expertise. They provided recommendations, supported implementation and took ownership of what was needed to move things forward. Their proactive approach helped us build scalable, maintainable infrastructure. It feels less like a vendor and more like an extension of our team.”
“I work in AI so I tend to be skeptical of most 'AI-powered' anything. dave.io is the exception. It's not magic, it's just competent. Infra stays safe, deploys don't break, and when I have a weird request it gets figured out without a back-and-forth because at the end of the day, I'm dealing with a real person, not just an agent. Good product. Recommended.”
“Does what it says. Team's responsive, work is clean, no hand-holding required. We're a startup, everyone's stretched. Last thing I need is another vendor I have to manage so I appreciate that dave.io just runs. Issues get caught, things get built, and I don't hear about problems unless I need to. Honestly just feels like having a reliable person on the team. That's rare, and I don't say it lightly.”
“We scaled fast and our team was struggling with capacity. Dave came recommended, so we went for it. I've worked with many vendors, and most need managing. Dave feels less like a vendor and more like a remote team member. The work is consistent, communication is straight, and collaboration with my team makes sense. I’d recommend it to any fast-moving R&D team looking for an alternative to full-time hires.”
