Move from script chaos to managed automation in hours.

KB Labs hides infra complexity behind the platform: write a plugin, get a production-ready workflow. On-prem deployment starts with one command.

Heads of Engineering and CTOs get one automation system instead of scattered local scripts and CI glue. Engineering teams accelerate TTM with ready workflows: task ready -> auto tests -> checks -> AI review -> QA. Platform developers extend safely through plugins where runtime enforces declared capabilities.

01

Release cycles from days to minutes

Automation handles operational steps end-to-end while humans keep final confirmation and result validation.

02

Lower maintenance overhead

Replace hidden script sprawl with one plugin-first architecture and auditable execution logs.

03

Policy-first by default

Plugins operate only within declared capabilities, making control and audit significantly easier.

Same outcome. Lower maintenance. Full observability.

One delivery loop across your engineering process

When a task is ready, the pipeline runs automatically: tests, checks, AI review, QA, and release.

Run on-prem now
01

Model the process

Define workflow rules, connect repositories, and configure target environments.

02

Execute automatically

Plugins run checks, reviews, and QA in sequence according to your policy model.

03

Control and release

Your team inspects full traces, confirms outcomes, and ships with confidence.

Sound familiar?

Six scenarios where teams replaced duct-tape automation with a single controlled platform.

Security and observability without tradeoffs

Every run is traceable and plugins cannot exceed explicitly declared capabilities.

Declarative permissionsPlugin runtime executes only actions explicitly declared in plugin contracts.
Full traceabilityExecution history and change trails are available for root-cause analysis and audit.
Policy-first modelProcess rules are centralized and enforced consistently across teams.

Commercial model at current stage

Today we focus on early OSS on-prem users. Plugin monetization and enterprise layers are evolving on roadmap.

Frequently asked questions

How long does on-prem setup actually take?

One command installs the launcher. A working environment with your first workflow is typically ready within an hour. No cloud dependency, no infra provisioning ceremony.

We already have CI/CD. Why not just extend it?

CI/CD handles build and deploy steps well. KB Labs handles the rest: commit policy, AI review gates, QA trend tracking, release coordination, agent workflows — things that don't belong in a pipeline YAML and don't scale as config.

What does building a plugin actually look like?

A plugin is a TypeScript package with a declared manifest. You define capabilities, write handlers, and the runtime enforces what the plugin is allowed to do. Most teams ship a working plugin in a day.

Is this only for large engineering teams?

No. The OSS core is used productively by teams of 2. The platform adds the most value when you have recurring multi-step processes that currently live in scripts, chat, or tribal knowledge.

What happens if we outgrow the OSS tier?

The core stays open-source with no lock-in. Enterprise capabilities — SLA, advanced governance, dedicated support — are on the roadmap for Q3-Q4 2026 and can be discussed early.
