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.

Agentic QA that tests every change like a real user and opens the fix PR
Pie maps your real user flows from a URL or build and finds elements by looking at the screen, so there are no selectors to maintain.
Each PR is read and exercised against the running app, so regressions are caught before they reach users.
Tests survive redesigns and deep links because they rely on how the interface looks and behaves, not on brittle CSS or accessibility paths.
When Pie confirms a bug, it drafts a fix PR with the root cause and the applied change, ready for review and merge.
