Overview
Factory builds Droids — AI software engineering agents designed to own and complete real engineering tasks without hand-holding. Give a Droid a GitHub issue or a task description and it will plan the work, write the code, run tests, and open a pull request ready for human review. Factory's agents integrate deeply with your existing development stack and are designed to handle the kind of work that typically falls through the cracks: fixing bugs, cleaning up tech debt, and handling routine feature additions.
