CoBoltEnterprise software, built and shipped by AI you can trust.

AI runs your whole software pipeline — from planning to deployment — with compliance and human oversight built in.

CoBolt plans, builds, reviews, validates, and ships enterprise software end-to-end — with the deterministic governance and audit evidence your CIO, your auditors, and your engineering organization can all sign off on.

The bottleneck has moved

AI now writes code at machine speed.
Your enterprise still ships at human speed.

Copilots, Cursor, Devin, and friends accelerated the keystroke. They did nothing for the 40–60% of engineering capacity consumed by requirements drift, review backlog, test gaps, security findings, compliance evidence, and modernization debt — the work that actually decides whether software ships.

A control problem, not a generation problem.
Today's stack

Three tiers of AI tooling — none of them ship enterprise software end-to-end.

Tier 1 · IDE Assistants

Copilot · Cursor · Codeium

Single-turn code completion. Brilliant for keystrokes, blind to architecture, security posture, requirements coverage, and audit trail. The bottleneck simply moves to review and validation.

Tier 2 · Autonomous Agents

Devin · Factory · Replit Agent

Task-to-PR autonomy with a handful of generic agents. Ungoverned by design — cannot produce the deterministic enforcement and evidence regulated enterprises require. Brownfield blind spot.

Tier 3 · DevOps Platforms

GitLab Duo · Harness · Rovo

Strong on CI/CD and policy. Weak or absent on requirements engineering, multi-agent build orchestration, and the reverse-engineering work that legacy modernization actually needs.

Tier 4 · The governed control plane

CoBolt's category

Plans the work. Decomposes it. Builds it through 210 specialist agents. Reviews it through 23 dedicated reviewers. Validates it against the original requirements. Produces audit evidence. Engineers operate it through CoBolt IDE; governance lives in CoBolt Studio. Not a replacement for Tier 1–3 — the orchestration layer that makes them safe to scale.

CoBolt orchestrates Tier 1–3. We do not ask you to replace your IDE.
What it is

One platform. Two surfaces.
One engine underneath.

CoBolt is an autonomous delivery platform that runs the full software lifecycle as a governed, evidence-producing pipeline. Engineers operate it through CoBolt IDE. Organizations govern it through CoBolt Studio. Both surfaces share the same engine, produce the same artifacts, and enforce the same policies.

Same engine, same artifacts. An action initiated in the IDE produces evidence Studio can audit. A gate configured in Studio binds the IDE's next pipeline run. The two surfaces are operationally identical from the engine's point of view — only the persona changes.

Every codebase, every vintage

Whether the codebase is one day old — or twenty years old.

CoBolt handles two kinds of starting points with the same platform, same agents, and same evidence pipeline. Only the entry point differs.

Greenfield

From an idea.

Requirements → architecture → design → build → review → validate → ship

Idea-to-production in one pipeline. Most AI coding tools accelerate this — CoBolt's edge is the governance layer wrapped around it.

Brownfield

From legacy code.

Reverse-engineer → business-rule extraction → re-engineerable spec → parity tests → forward build

Reads what exists. Writes what should exist. Proves the two match before cutover. Almost no AI tool ships this end-to-end — 80% of enterprise engineering spend lives here.

One platform · Same agents · Same evidence · Two entry points into the lifecycle.
Deployment

Meet your security posture without compromising capability.

SaaS

Hosted control plane, BYO model keys, evidence in your bucket. Fastest path to value.

Self-hosted

Your cloud or your datacenter. Full source available. Identical platform, identical evidence pipeline.

Air-gapped

No internet. Local model providers (LM Studio, Ollama). For regulated and classified environments where data cannot leave the boundary.

Engine protection

In every deployment mode, the engine ships as an encrypted local sidecar. Your machines run it; the engine source never leaves them.

Model neutrality

13 AI provider profiles supported, including local options for air-gapped customers. Bring your own keys; we never see them.

Same platform · Same agents · Same evidence · Three trust boundaries.
Outcomes

Faster cycles. Higher confidence. A shorter path to audit.

On the roadmap

A self-hostable control plane for all your enterprise AI traffic — one endpoint across LLM providers, MCP tool calls, and CLI/agent sessions, with cost controls, policy enforcement, and audit-ready compliance evidence. Architecture laid out; production code in year 2 after CoBolt has enterprise traction.

Trust is built on what we tell you before you ask.
Timing

The window for governed autonomy is open right now.

01 / FORCE

Model inflection

Frontier-class agentic models shipped in late 2025. The capability floor moved; the governance gap widened.

02 / FORCE

Regulation

EU AI Act Article 14 enforcement: August 2, 2026. Penalties up to €35M or 7% of global revenue. CIOs cannot wait.

03 / FORCE

Modernization mandate

$38B/year in spend. US federal COBOL phase-out 2029. India RBI core-banking mandates. Non-discretionary buying.

Standing still is the most expensive option in 2026.
