AI Agents for Platform Engineering
Kestrel is the AI automation layer for platform engineering teams. Platform teams use Kestrel to automate incident response, cloud provisioning, CI/CD, security, and developer requests across their stack. Kestrel turns natural-language prompts into deterministic, production-ready workflows with 25+ integrations, 140+ pre-built actions, and support for custom HTTP and webhook actions. Developer-first, with a CLI, Python SDK, and MCP server to manage workflows from where platform teams already work.
Kestrel AI provides AI agents to automate platform engineering workflows across incidents, cloud provisioning, CI/CD, and developer requests. It emphasizes deterministic execution and a visual/word-based workflow builder with extensive integrations. Backed by Y Combinator, it offers a free start and aims to onboard quickly.
The product uses an AI agent to convert natural language descriptions into production-ready workflow graphs. It supports 140+ pre-built actions across 25+ integrations and allows custom actions. Users can describe a workflow in plain English, which the agent generates; users can then edit via a DAG visual editor, CLI, or SDK. Workflows are executed deterministically with configurable triggers, approvals, and real-time observability, including a dashboard and step-level logs. Examples include incident response, cloud provisioning, and CI/CD automation, with parallel execution of tasks like RCA, ticketing, containment, and notifications across tools (e.g., Slack, PagerDuty, Jira). The platform also provides access controls, audit trails, and deployment across environments (e.g., Kubernetes, AWS, Vercel).
Who itβs for: Platform engineering teams, SREs, and DevOps teams responsible for automating infrastructure, incident response, and deployment pipelines within organizations.

Run Kubernetes securely and fix incidents in seconds, not hours.
Kestrel launches an agentic platform for Kubernetes that monitors clusters, detects incidents, and provides ready-to-apply YAML fixes and autonomous investigations. It targets teams running Kubernetes and aims to unify operations and security, enabling faster root-cause analysis and remediation with a single-click fix workflow.
