Factory is an AI-native software development platform built around Droids, autonomous agents that help organizations automate work across the software development lifecycle. The platform is designed to let teams build software factories that move from planning and implementation through testing, review, and shipping inside the tools engineers already use, including terminal, IDE, browser, desktop, Slack, and CI/CD environments.
Factory pairs agent execution with enterprise controls for deployment, governance, and measurement. It supports model-agnostic operation, persistent compute for long-running work, and observability for tracking usage, cost, and outcomes. Its positioning centers on helping engineering organizations adopt autonomous development workflows without forcing a single interface, model vendor, or deployment pattern.
Offerings, Capabilities, and Integrations
Factory delivers an agent runtime and orchestration layer for software work spanning planning, implementation, testing, review, documentation, migrations, and incident response. Teams can run Droids interactively or headlessly, choose the interface that fits their workflow, and set autonomy boundaries from supervised assistance to more autonomous execution.
The platform is built to plug into existing engineering and AI stacks. Factory supports bring-your-own-model and bring-your-own-key approaches, LLM gateways, hierarchical policy controls, MCP-based extensibility, and integrations with tools such as GitHub, GitLab, Jira, Slack, Linear, Notion, Sentry, and PagerDuty. For enterprise deployments, it supports SSO and SAML, SCIM, RBAC, OpenTelemetry-based observability, and cloud-managed, hybrid, or fully air-gapped operating models.
Products and Services

- Custom Droids: Reusable specialized subagents with configurable prompts, models, and tool access for team-specific tasks such as research, code review, and security checks.
Target Customers
Factory primarily targets software engineering organizations that want to operationalize AI agents inside existing development workflows rather than move work into a separate environment. Its strongest fit is enterprise development teams, platform engineering groups, and engineering leaders managing complex codebases, CI/CD pipelines, and multi-tool software delivery processes.
Factory is also well aligned with organizations that need governance, auditability, and controlled deployment options for AI adoption. That includes large enterprises and regulated environments such as financial services, government, healthcare, and other security-sensitive teams, as well as companies that want measurable visibility into AI usage, cost, and engineering outcomes.
