From my experience it’s quite hard to monetize developer tools except maybe when focusing on security, so it’s good you seem to have that as a focus as well. Good luck!

I believe that now is the right time for a solution like Datree. I think so because of the way we develop software has evolved, companies moved from Waterfall into Agile, there is developer autonomy and the move towards distributed micro-services has brought many companies to the reality of having hundreds and thousands of git repositories, each one with its own configuration files for CI, Docker, Kubernetes, etc.. its really hard managing all of those distributed pieces :)
Beware that Github recently acquired Semmle, they had one of the best static analysis offerings and I think Github acquired them to integrate their solution natively into the platform, so I wouldn't focus exclusively on Github as they might become your competitor very soon. In many enterprise settings Gitlab seems to be the more popular choice already, so it might be worth looking at integrating with that as well.
