AI agents for software engineering, scaled at inference time
Agents invest additional compute at test time to reason, explore and verify before producing a fix, rather than relying only on a single forward pass.
Systems aimed at real repository work: locating the relevant code, understanding intent and producing changes that address an issue.
The team publishes measured outcomes, including a reported 62.2% resolve rate on SWE-bench Verified.
Regular engineering notes covering agent architecture, evaluation methodology and lessons learned from building coding systems.
A spec-driven AI IDE and agent platform that plans, builds, reviews, and verifies real engineering work.
You describe intent and context first; Kiro captures requirements and design as specifications, then verifies the finished implementation against them.
Kiro Crew watches your backlog, codebase, or CI, triages new work, delegates to specialized bots, and returns results for your review.
Long tasks split into checked steps so agents cannot shortcut a failed test, and review agents inspect diffs before a human approves a merge.
Use the IDE, mobile, or web, run headless in CI/CD with the CLI, or trigger Kiro from Slack, Microsoft Teams, GitHub, and GitLab.
