Common questions
- So the primary path today is on-prem OSS, right?
- Yes. As of March 5, 2026, KB Labs prioritizes early OSS on-prem adoption for engineering teams.
- When should we expect full enterprise capabilities?
- Enterprise layers are planned after early-user validation, with current target window around Q3-Q4 2026 and beyond.
- Is this a no-code business automation tool?
- No. KB Labs is intended for engineering teams building and operating plugin-based automation workflows.
- How do you prove practical value today?
- Internal dogfooding includes 11 plugins across release automation, commit flows, QA automation, agent workflows, devlink, and more.
- How will ecosystem monetization work?
- Planned model includes subscription plugins from KB Labs and marketplace flows for community extensions with platform commission.
- We already have heavy custom scripts. Where should we start?
- Start with one expensive workflow, usually release management. Migrate it first and measure cycle-time and maintenance impact.
