The Kortix stack

Every layer an AI workforce needs — in one platform you own.

Most tools hand you one layer and rent you the rest. Kortix is all six — they read in order, and the sixth commits the work back into the first.

Agents, skills, memory, connector config and triggers are all text in one repo. Not settings in someone else’s database — files you own.

kortix.yaml declares the machine image, the connectors and the triggers
Agents and skills are markdown; memory is files that accumulate
grep the whole company, diff any change, roll any part of it back

what it has learned so far

A model on its own answers. The harness gives it planning, tool use and multi-step runs it actually finishes — powered by OpenCode, configured by a file in the repo.

An OpenCode agent: markdown, plus the tools and plugins beside it
Say allow, ask or deny per tool — down to a single shell command
Open source, so the harness is never the thing you are locked into

What the harness does

Planning

breaks a request into steps it finishes

Tool use

reads, edits, runs, fetches, calls connectors

Permission

allow · ask · deny, per tool and per glob

By role

It picks up work from every team and runs it start to finish.

01 / 07

Outbound, error triage, the books, the Monday report — real jobs, on real machines, landing as changes you can read.

Sales01

Builds the outbound campaign and runs it.

It pulls a lead list from Apollo, enriches every account, and writes a sequence per lead. Put Ask on the send step and it stops with you before anything goes out.

Your four new platform hires

Saw you are hiring four platform engineers.

Teams at that stage lose about a week a month to

manual reconciliation. We built an agent that closes

that loop and shows its working. Worth twenty minutes?

Draft · Ask set on send

240 leads pulled · 24 enriched · 3 sequences written

Engineering02

Reads the logs, ships the fix.

Every morning it sweeps the day’s errors, groups them, reproduces the worst one on its own machine, patches it and opens a change request against main.

fix-checkout-expiry.diffOutput

app/checkout/charge.ts

if (card.expMonth < now.getMonth()) {

if (isExpired(card, now)) {

return fail(402, "card_expired");

}

9 error groups · top one fixed · 118 tests pass

Marketing03

Runs the SEO programme week after week.

It tracks the queries you care about, finds the pages losing ground, rewrites them against the brief, and opens each rewrite as a change request.

marketing/seo-weekly.xlsxOutput

Query	Page	Pos	Change
payout reconciliation	/guides/payouts	4	+7

5 briefs written · 2 rewrites in a change request

Finance04

Does the books, not just the summary.

It reconciles the ledger against the bank, chases the receipts that are missing, attaches them, and closes the month with the variance explained.

finance/fy26-budget.xlsxOutput

Cost centre	H1 plan	Actual	Variance
R&D — platform	1,225,000	1,182,400	+42,600

Total	2,455,000	2,343,200	+111,800

9 receipts chased and attached · 1 centre over plan

People05

Sources the pipeline, not just the inbox.

It searches the sources you connect for people matching the brief, scores each against the written bar, and drafts the first approach for every one worth it.

Prospect	Signal	Score	Stage

Product06

Turns what users say into what ships.

It reads every piece of feedback that came in, groups it into themes you can act on, and takes the top one all the way to a change request.

We are building the open AGI platform. Every company should own all of it.

Why we are building it →Read the source

Security & trust

Giving agents real accessis the easy part. Trustingthem with it is the work.

Every session runs on its own isolated machine, with credentials it never sees, and lands nothing without a person approving it.

How Kortix is secured

SOC 2TYPE IIn progress
SOC 2TYPE IIIn progress
GDPR

Merging is a separate power

Agents open change requests. Merge is default-deny for an agent and granted explicitly in kortix.yaml — so an agent cannot widen its own reach without a change someone else approves.

Connector keys never enter the machine

Third-party credentials stay server-side and are brokered through one scoped token, so the raw key never reaches the sandbox. Delivery is gated by role and by the agent grant.

Yours, down to the metal

Kortix Cloud, your own VPC, or your own on-prem network. It is open source, so you can read every line of what you are trusting.

Straight answers

The questions people ask before the first session.

Get started

Run your whole company from one repo you own.

Start with one job, connect the tools it needs, and let your team reach it from Slack, the web, or the CLI. Self-host for free, or managed cloud at $40 / seat / mo + usage.

Open source · SSO, RBAC & on-prem · Any model, your keys · No lock-in
