Factory

What is Factory?

Factory is an agent-native software development platform that seamlessly integrates autonomous software development agents—called Droids—across your entire development workflow. Unlike traditional coding assistants that require context switching, Droids work directly within the tools developers already use: IDEs like VS Code and JetBrains, command line interfaces, web browsers, Slack, and project managers like Linear. The platform eliminates workflow fragmentation by allowing developers and teams to delegate complete coding tasks, refactors, incident response, migrations, and code reviews without leaving their current environment. Droids handle end-to-end development work from writing production-ready code to running automated tests and creating pull requests, while maintaining organizational memory of decisions and documentation across sessions.

Key Features

• Multi-Platform Integration

  Seamless access to Droids across IDE terminals, web browser, CLI, Slack, Teams, and project management tools, enabling task delegation from any development environment without workflow disruption.

• Autonomous End-to-End Development

  Droids independently build production-ready features from tickets, specifications, or natural language prompts, handling coding, testing, pull request creation, and deployment quality assurance.

• Intelligent Context Awareness

  Droids maintain organizational memory across sessions, integrating with GitHub and Jira to understand project context, existing codebase patterns, and development decisions without requiring full repository clones.

• Flexible Execution Modes

  Support for both local pair-programming sessions and remote execution, allowing developers to choose between real-time collaboration or overnight background task completion.

• CI/CD and Automation at Scale

  Script and parallelize Droids for massive-scale operations including automated code review, self-healing builds, infrastructure migrations, and maintenance tasks across the development lifecycle.

• Enterprise Security and Governance

  Fine-grained controls, guardrails, state-of-the-art security protocols, and compliance measures to protect intellectual property and prevent unauthorized AI usage or prompt injection attacks.

Use Cases

• Feature Development : Teams delegate complete feature implementation from ticket to production-ready PR, accelerating development cycles while maintaining code quality standards.
• Incident Response and Triage : Support teams and engineers use Droids for rapid incident triage, diagnosis, and rapid prototyping of fixes, reducing mean time to resolution (MTTR).
• Code Refactoring and Migration : Large-scale codebase migrations, dependency updates, and architectural refactoring tasks are automated at scale through CLI-based parallel execution.
• Automated Code Review : Droids provide context-aware pull request reviews, catching issues and suggesting improvements continuously, reducing review bottlenecks and accelerating merge cycles.
• Ticket and Workflow Automation : Automatically trigger Droids from issue assignments or Slack mentions, with agents pulling context, implementing solutions, and creating PRs while maintaining full traceability.
