We secure AI coding at every step. From the first prompt to the final push, we enforce policy before code is written, instantly fix vulnerabilities after it’s created, and educate developers to build critical security thinking. Whether you’re vibe coding, accelerating with copilots, or scaling into agentic workflows, we deliver AI-native security that keeps you compliant, fast, and secure.

Unify orchestration for all engineers. Build, run and govern all your workflows — data, AI, infrastructure, and business — Everything-as-Code, from the UI and with AI. Kestra is the open-source orchestration platform built to help teams ship faster without losing control—making both scheduled and event-driven automation easy across your entire stack. Often described as the fastest-growing open-source orchestration platform, Kestra has seen 10x growth year-over-year in adoption and workflow volume. Everything-as-Code, from the UI: design workflows in the UI (including no-code forms) or in declarative YAML—both stay in sync so automation remains reviewable, auditable, and scalable. AI-native execution: • Production AI Copilot generates and refines flows from natural language prompts—while keeping YAML clean and reviewable. • Agentic orchestration with context: AI Agents combine an LLM with memory (context carried across steps/runs) and tools, so workflows can dynamically choose actions, loop until completion, and adapt to new information. Built for production teams: extensible integrations, strong execution primitives, and governance—plus automation via API and Terraform for CI/CD at scale.

Stoïk protects SMEs and mid-sized organizations across Europe against cyber risks with an integrated, AI-powered model combining insurance coverage, active risk prevention and in-house incident response.

Swarmia is a software engineering intelligence platform for modern organizations.
