AI-Native GTM Challengers
Measures earned, engagement-weighted share of voice across the GTM voices panel. Methodology →
Trace is positioning itself as the context and orchestration layer for companies running AI agents alongside human teams. Its broader conversation footprint remains early, so the current position is defined mainly by product releases and customer use cases. The product connects workplace systems, builds a graph of people, projects, clients, and tasks, and turns plain-language processes into workflows with agent steps, human assignments, and approval gates. Recent company writing emphasizes evaluation, governance, and explainable handoffs as the operating requirements for moving agent experiments into production.

Business Profile
Founded in 2025, Trace is an independent London-based software company with five employees and $3M in funding. The business emerged from Y Combinator’s Summer 2025 batch around the idea that workplace agents need organizational context before they can handle durable operational work. Its funding supports deeper integrations, a wider agent ecosystem, and movement from single workflows into multi-team deployments. Trace is currently focused on back-office processes such as client onboarding, document handling, account management, HR screening, and sales operations.
Agent Readiness
Measures how easily your agents can build on it — API, MCP, CLI, SDK, docs depth. Methodology →
Trace’s AI strategy centers on a knowledge graph that supplies agents with company context at execution time. Teams describe processes in plain language; Trace converts them into workflows where agent tasks run automatically, human tasks pause for the right assignee, and approval gates protect irreversible actions. No public API, MCP, SDK, or CLI is available on file. The company has publicly identified a third-party SDK as part of its build-out.
