Build, deploy, and govern production-ready agentic AI workflows
A visual canvas where retrieval, branching, tool calls, human review, and model steps form a visible, testable execution path you can debug and hand off.
Create agents through chat or manual configuration, give them skills, tools, and knowledge, then ship them as apps, embeds, or reusable nodes inside workflows.
Build repeatable ingestion pipelines for documents, sites, and drives, with extraction, cleaning, chunking, indexing, and retrieval testing before you go live.
Install model providers, tools, data sources, and MCP integrations once and reuse approved plugins across every app in the workspace.
Full-stack observability with an AI SRE agent that fixes issues
An AI agent that detects, investigates, and helps auto-fix production issues across infrastructure, APM and RUM signals.
Monitor servers, containers, serverless workloads and cloud services across AWS, Azure, GCP and Kubernetes from one place.
Correlate and query high-volume logs assisted by AI so debugging does not rely on manual grep-style detective work.
Track application performance, trace slow requests, and inspect database and endpoint behaviour end to end.
