Introducing Deferred Context Engine in Droid.
AI agents are getting access to more tools: MCP servers, internal tools, skills, plugins, workflows. But loading every schema and instruction into every prompt makes agents slower, noisier, and more expensive.

Factory 1.8 is here.
And with it come new ways to automate and delegate software development with your Droids. Now in your favorite tools like Linear, Slack, and Sentry.
1. Delegate tickets in @linear
Assign an issue to Factory and a Droid will complete it end-to-end with full engineering context.
Updates stream in the Activity tab and jump into the live session anytime.

Software development is more than just coding.
Introducing Droids -- the world's first software development agents. 🤖
Starting today, Droids are available for general access.
Factory integrates with your entire engineering system (GitHub, Slack, Linear, Notion, Sentry) and serves that context to your Droids as they autonomously build production-ready software.
Factory is the first platform that allows you to work with agents: local + synchronous and remote + asynchronous.
Droids work across the entire software development lifecycle:
1. Autonomous End-to-End Coding 2. Resolve On-Call Incidents 3. Deep Codebase Research 4. Create Thoughtful Product Specs 5. Review Pull Requests 6. Automated Linear Management

INTRODUCING FACTORY
Factory is the Command Center where developers and agentic AI collaborate to understand, plan, and build enterprise software.
Our enterprise platform combines advanced engineering system indexing, state-of-the-art retrieval and search, and reliable agentic systems powered by frontier LLMs. In your Factory,
• 🤖 Droid Mode unlocks cutting-edge agentic capabilities. Accelerate your development with AI that autonomously pulls in tickets, reads error logs, retrieves relevant context, executes code, and solves complex, long-running tasks.
• 🪡 Threads let you jump into deep work with all relevant context dynamically surfaced in front of you. No more crawling through Github, Slack, Google Drive, Notion, Jira, Slack, or context-switching between them.
• ⚡ Workflows transform and centralize your organization’s best practices into executable, AI-powered processes. Automate repetitive tasks like building integrations, bug-fixing, PRD creation, release notes, version updates, and more.
We're working with some of the most innovative organizations in software — from AI-forward enterprises like @MongoDB to high-growth organizations across the world. Our enterprise platform combines advanced engineering system indexing, state-of-the-art retrieval and search, and reliable agentic systems using frontier LLMs like o3 and Claude 3.7 Sonnet

THE MACHINE THAT BUILDS THE MACHINE
Today we are excited to announce the latest updates from Factory and the next steps in our mission to Bring Autonomy to Software Engineering.
Droids are autonomous systems that solve problems for engineers. Not just in demos. Not just in simple repositories. In complex, production settings. Testing, debugging, refactoring, migrating, reviewing, documenting — world class organizations are accelerating their software development with Factory’s Droids.
In addition to building out the Droid Fleet, we have some other exciting updates to share:
- New SOTA benchmarks. 31.67% on SWE-bench Lite. 19.27% on SWE-bench Full.
- New Fundraising. $15M Series A led by Sequoia Capital.

These Droids also are the most advanced AI coding systems that exist, thanks to the Factory Team’s breakthrough research in orchestration, retrieval, and planning.
SWE-bench () is the industry-leading standard for benchmarking AI coding ability. Factory’s Code Droid has set new State-of-the-Art Benchmarks, across the board.
31.67% on SWE-Bench LITE (300 problems).
19.27% on SWE-Bench FULL (2294 problems).
