Cloud only? Log data is often rather sensitive, there's no way I could see this being useful for anything but personal projects, like website logs.

Not to mention the transfer cost to constantly upload a significant data flow to them.

We do have an offer for an on-site solution. The cloud version is adaptable to such situations, a local installation of the API.

You are correct about the sensitivity of website log data, but they are not the only logs that can be inspected. Also, people seem to be willing to send their logs to other log storage and anlytics companies.

Oh, I meant website logs I might be willing to send like that. But they tend to be a tiny fraction of all the logs out there.

CAP offers analytics API on cloud for security, devops and sysadmins. We help you to identify noteworthy items in huge data sets: uncover indications of security threats, service failures and other odd events, increasing the business value of your data.

CAP is a non-signature based detection of anomalies. Rules, fingerprints and blacklists are based on historical information whereas CAP can detect previously unknown threats.

It would be nice to receive feedback on the usability of the API and documentation. Thanks Hacker News!

Your site says your technology is patent-pending. What's that patent about?

It's about juicing their image with investors.
