In 2023, we launched Factory with the mission to bring autonomy to software engineering. While others were using models to speed up coding, we set out to deploy autonomous Droids across the enterprise software development lifecycle. Today we are announcing the next phase in the future of software engineering.
Improving the productivity of individual engineers is no longer enough. Unlocking organization-wide productivity requires an interconnected, agent-native, end-to-end system. This system must improve over time by observing itself. The incremental units of this system are AI agents. This system will be built by engineers, and in turn will build their software.
This system is the software factory.
The software factory starts with signals from the outside world: bug reports, internal conversations, customer feedback, business requirements. These signals get triaged and turned into planned changes. These changes are built, tested, reviewed, secured, shipped, and monitored. Monitoring that deployed software generates more signals. The entire system is a continuous feedback loop. Almost no one has meaningfully instrumented this loop to be fully AI-driven. We are still early, but the proliferation of software factories is going to happen very quickly.
A robust software factory must have:
Model Independence.
Every model has a different trade-off of cost, performance, and speed. No one model fits every need within an enterprise. Your software factory must allow your organization to deliberately choose different models, or rely on a Router to automatically (or rule-based) select the best* model for any given task. As models commoditize, costs decrease while speed and performance increase.
Sovereign Intelligence.
You must be the sovereign of your software factory. Whether fully hosted in the cloud, bring-your-own-key, self-hosted data plane, EU-specific, or completely air-gapped with no external network access. Sovereignty means more than choosing where the system runs. It means owning a system that learns from itself, feeding every agent session, code review, and resolved incident back into the loop. The more you invest in your software factory, the more capable it becomes, and that capability stays with you, inside your walls, under your control.
Continual Learning and Self-Improvement.
Every stage of the software development lifecycle must be instrumented. When code review, security analysis, documentation, QA, and incident response all run on the same platform, they share the same agent core, the same model router, the same organizational context. A security finding informs the code review. A deployment triggers a documentation update. An incident correlates with the PR that caused it. Every additional automation, integration, or customization flows to the entire organization at once. The router itself learns to optimizes resources. The assembly line should span the full floor of the software factory.
We have been building software factories with our customers for the last few months. Software factories are already in production across the world’s largest organizations including NVIDIA, EY, Adobe, Palo Alto Networks, Adyen, Blackstone, Wipro, Comarch and more.
No organization starts with a fully autonomous software factory. Autonomy is a maturation process that is gradual and specific to every organization’s readiness and comfort level. Deploying autonomy across the organization happens through deliberate engineering effort to codify workflows and standardize processes.
Factory enables a spectrum of autonomy over time. Not every process should use long-horizon autonomous tasks. Well-defined, measurable tasks run with simple Droid agents or skills. Automations coordinate recurring workflows with a shared objective and memory. Remote and persistent execution leverages Droid Computers for long running or local agents. Multi-agent autonomous execution called Missions solve complex tasks over hours or days by decomposing work into parallel tracks to handle. Different autonomous processes are used for varying requirements based on the level of human guidance required, the information sensitivity, and the level of Agent Readiness.
Organizations that invest in their autonomous software development will see engineering outcomes surge, while owning decisions around cost, quality and context. The role of engineers is all the more important in this new era. No longer will they be the sole custodians of building the software. Instead, they will be responsible for building the factories that build the software. With this comes the responsibility of governance, safety, and the ownership of business outcomes. The next era of software development will be engineering-led and will see engineering responsibilities grow to span across the business itself.
Software factories are not built in a day, but the best day to start building your Factory is today.
Today we are expanding this functionality with visibility to manage your software factory directly in the Factory Desktop App.

# 工厂 2.0：从编码代理到软件工厂

2023 年，我们创立了 Factory，致力于将自主性引入软件工程领域。当其他人还在利用模型来加速编码时，我们就已经开始在企业软件开发生命周期中部署自主 Droids（机器人）。今天，我们宣布软件工程未来的下一阶段。
仅提升个体工程师的生产力已不再足够。要释放组织范围的生产力，需要一个互联的、原生代理的、端到端的系统。该系统必须能够通过自我观察来不断改进。构成这个系统的增量单元是 AI 代理。这个系统将由工程师构建，进而构建他们的软件。
这个系统就是软件工厂。
软件工厂始于来自外部的信号：错误报告、内部沟通、客户反馈、业务需求。这些信号经过分类，转化为计划中的变更。这些变更随后被构建、测试、审查、加固、交付和监控。对已部署软件的监控又会产生新的信号。整个系统是一个持续的反馈循环。几乎还没有人真正将这个循环完全 instrumentation（ instrumentation -> 仪器化/监控化？在上下文中通常指通过工具和数据收集进行监控和度量）以实现完全由 AI 驱动。我们仍处于早期阶段，但软件工厂的普及将会发生得非常快。
一个强大的软件工厂必须具备：
模型独立性。
每个模型在成本、性能和速度上都有不同的权衡。没有一种模型能满足企业内的所有需求。您的软件工厂必须允许您的组织有意识地选择不同的模型，或者依靠路由器自动（或基于规则）为任何给定任务选择*最佳*模型。随着模型商品化，成本降低，速度和性能提高。
主权智能。
您必须是您软件工厂的主宰者。无论是完全托管在云端、自带密钥（BYOK）、自托管数据平面、特定于欧盟，还是在完全气隙隔离且无外部网络访问的环境下运行。主权不仅仅意味着选择系统的运行位置。它意味着拥有一个能够自我学习的系统，将每次代理会话、代码审查和已解决的实例反馈回循环中。您在软件工厂上投入得越多，它的能力就越强，而且这些能力始终属于您，留在您的防火墙内，受您掌控。
持续学习和自我改进。
软件开发生命周期的每个阶段都必须被 instrumentation（被监控/度量）。当代码审查、安全分析、文档、QA 和事件响应都运行在同一个平台上时，它们共享同一个代理核心、同一个模型路由器和同一个组织上下文。安全发现会为代码审查提供信息。部署会触发文档更新。事件会导致与其相关的 Pull Request 被关联。每一个额外的自动化、集成或定制都会立即流向整个组织。路由器本身也会学习以优化资源。装配线应该覆盖软件工厂的整个区域。
在过去的几个月里，我们一直在与客户共同构建软件工厂。目前，软件工厂已在全球最大的组织中投入生产，包括 NVIDIA、EY、Adobe、Palo Alto Networks、Adyen、Blackstone、Wipro、Comarch 等等。
没有任何组织一开始就拥有一个完全自主的软件工厂。自主性是一个成熟的过程，它是渐进的，且对每个组织的准备度和舒适度而言都是特定的。在整个组织范围内部署自主性，需要通过深思熟虑的工程努力来实现，包括将工作流程代码化以及标准化流程。
Factory 随着时间的推移提供了一系列的自主性功能。并非每个流程都应使用长周期的自主任务。定义明确、可衡量的任务由简单的 Droid 代理或技能运行。自动化协调具有共同目标和记忆的周期性工作流。远程和持久执行利用 Droid Computers 进行长时间运行或本地的代理。多代理自主执行被称为“Missions（任务）”，通过将工作分解为并行轨道来处理，从而在数小时或数天内解决复杂任务。根据所需的人工指导水平、信息敏感度和代理就绪程度的不同，会使用不同的自主流程。
那些投资于自主软件开发的组织将看到工程成果的激增，同时掌握关于成本、质量和上下文的决策权。在这个新时代，工程师的角色变得愈发重要。他们不再是构建软件的唯一守护者。相反，他们将负责构建构建软件的工厂。随之而来的是治理、安全责任以及业务结果的所有权。软件开发的下一个时代将由工程主导，工程职责将扩展到涵盖整个业务本身。
软件工厂不是一天就能建成的，但开始构建您的工厂的最好日子就是今天。
今天，我们通过 Factory 桌面应用程序扩展了这一功能，您可以直接在其中管理和监控您的软件工厂。
