PagerDuty faces intense competition from rivals incorporating generative and agentic AI technologies.
“The market for digital operations solutions, particularly enterprise-grade solutions, is highly fragmented, competitive, and constantly evolving. We face substantial competition from in-house solutions, open-source software, manual processes, and software providers that may compete against certain components of our offering, as well as established and emerging software providers.

For example, our competitors may more successfully incorporate Emerging AI Technologies into their products, gain or leverage superior access to certain technologies, or achieve higher market acceptance of their Emerging AI Technologies solutions. Some of our actual and potential competitors have been acquired by other larger enterprises and have made or may make acquisitions or may enter into partnerships or other strategic relationships that may provide more comprehensive offerings than they individually had offered or achieve greater economies of scale than we have. For example, some companies that compete with certain components of our offerings include ServiceNow, Atlassian, and Splunk (acquired by Cisco).
