The agentic runtime

Your workflows, made agentic.Your runtime, made reliable.

The distributed runtime for agents that touch production.

What it is

The execution engine for agentic intelligence.

Not a database, not a model, not a chat app — the execution kernel beneath them. Describe the work; the runtime takes over.

How it scales

One runtime, three shapes.

Adding distribution is wiring, not a rewrite — the scheduler and executor are the same from your laptop to distributed capacity. Drop a node and watch the runtime re-lease its work exactly once.

mode:
runtime.topology::local
drop a node:
Runtime in local shape — the scheduler and executor are unchanged across shapes.

Local

One machine. Install, describe the work, full exactly-once guarantees on your laptop.

first runs · daily work

The same binary runs in every shape. Distribution is configuration — placement is least-loaded and starvation-free, and a lost node's work is recovered without re-running anything already committed.

Trust is infrastructure

Policy-gated by default.

Safety isn't prompt engineering. Every action runs inside a scope the runtime enforces — in-scope work passes, out-of-scope work is refused before it touches the world, with the reason on the record.

Refused before it runs

Out-of-scope actions are refused before they ever reach a tool — not logged after the fact.

Scope only narrows

As work fans out, each step can only ever be more restricted than its parent. Never wider.

Critics gate mutations

Deterministic critics — schema, bounds, dedup — gate every world-mutating step. Non-override.

Who it's for

Built for individuals. Engineered for enterprises.

Easy enough to install and run on day one. Robust enough to run a business on. The same runtime, whether you're automating your own work or running agents across a team.

For individuals

Start in minutes

Install the runtime, describe what you want done, and step away. No infrastructure to set up, no expertise required. The runtime picks sensible defaults — you focus on outcomes, with full exactly-once guarantees on your own machine.

For enterprises

Scales with you

Reliable execution, transparent recovery, and delivery guarantees come with the runtime — not bolted on later. Capacity grows with your workload. Security, observability, and policy are designed in from day one.

Get started

Run your agents on a runtime that recovers itself.

Install locally and start in minutes, or join the waitlist for managed capacity. Exactly-once delivery, transparent recovery, policy-gated by default.
