Assign Jira tickets to AI agents and get a pull request back on the ticket
Turn any issue in your board into a task for an AI coding agent, so project managers can hand off work without opening a repository.
Baloon connects through a provider-agnostic layer, so the same board workflow can drive different AI coding backends rather than locking you into one vendor.
When the agent finishes, the ticket receives a task summary and a link to the generated pull request, keeping the whole conversation inside Jira.
AI output comes back as a reviewable pull request rather than a direct commit, so engineering keeps control over what reaches the main branch.
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.

Free / Open-sourceWrite code with precision, hand bigger jobs to agents, and keep working from anywhere

Reads entire codebases to execute multi-file tasks as an IDE plugin, but offers less structured spec management.

Free / Open-sourceThe AI coding agent that turns ideas into shipped software
SpecialistOperates fully autonomously across entire repositories to open pull requests, but lacks an integrated interactive IDE workspace.
Free / Open-sourceRuns multiple CLI coding agents in parallel using isolated Git worktrees, but requires manual setup over managed IDEs.
Delivers a fast AI-powered IDE environment for full projects, but lacks Kiro's strict architectural spec verification.

Free / Open-sourceShip on-brand product experiences with your team and AI agents

Focuses on enterprise multi-agent SDLC orchestration and deep context, but lacks Kiro's specific AWS backing and specs.
