Greylock Backs Niteshift, a Cloud Platform for AI Coding Agents Outside Big Tech

Greylock Partners invested in Niteshift, founded by ex-Datadog engineers. The platform handles the infrastructure layer—scheduling, data persistence, sandboxed execution, and credential management—that autonomous coding agents need to run. The bet: keeping this capability independent of hyperscalers and AI labs preserves flexibility and limits vendor lock-in.
