Factory0.189.0

Factory lets developers direct coding work through a native AI-agent interface that turns plans and codebase context into software they can build, manage, and ship. Its Droids automate coding, testing, and deployment, helping teams move from an intended change to validated software. Work can be planned, built, reviewed, and released through desktop, terminal, web, and CLI environments.

Mission Control displays active missions, worker progress, and detailed execution logs in real time, while Automations put repetitive engineering tasks on autopilot using shared context. Model Routing assigns each task to a suitable model while balancing quality, speed, and cost. Administrators can control where the system runs, how it learns, and which models it uses.

Factory reviews pull requests with inline comments intended to catch real issues before merging, and AutoWiki maintains a living, code-aware wiki for each repository. Analytics show adoption and consumption by developer and team through real-time metrics and exportable reports, while Agent Readiness measures organizational progress across repositories over time. Governance turns enterprise signals into validated production software and connects engineering effectiveness with growth, profitability, risk, and business performance.

The software is aimed at startups and enterprises, with teams setting goals and policies while autonomous agents plan, execute, and validate changes. Droid Computers run agents locally on purpose-built hardware with dedicated compute and preserve state between sessions. Factory is freeware in the Developer Tools category for macOS, and version 0.190.0 requires macOS 12 Monterey or later on Apple Silicon (arm64).
