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.

Reach thousands of customers with one message, and capture new leads directly from social ads and website links.
