Factory
Factory provides autonomous coding agents called Droids that plan, build, review and ship software across desktop, terminal, web and CLI, with enterprise governance.
About this tool
Factory sells software development agents, which it calls Droids, for individuals, teams and large enterprises. Droids plan, write, review and ship code and are available in a desktop app, terminal, web interface and CLI. Factory-managed cloud computers can host remote Droids so work continues outside a developer’s machine.
For enterprises, Factory emphasises control and governance: choosing where the system runs and which models it uses, admin settings for model access and autonomy levels, deny lists and network policies, and dedicated compute. It also offers programmes to improve an organisation’s readiness for agents and to connect engineering adoption with business outcomes.
What you can do
Droid agents
Agents that handle planning, coding, review and shipping across the development cycle.
Multi-surface access
Use Droids from a desktop app, terminal, web interface or CLI.
Droid Computers
Factory-managed cloud machines run remote Droids for longer tasks.
Enterprise controls
Admins set model access, autonomy level, deny lists and network policies.
Who is it for?
- A small team shares a Factory plan to delegate routine features and fixes.
- An enterprise restricts which models Droids can use and how autonomously they act.
- A developer runs a long migration on a remote Droid Computer.
Before you choose
Team pricing combines a per-team fee with per-seat charges, so calculate the total for your size.
Autonomous agents need clear review processes before their changes reach production.
