The problem Amos replaces
Small teams lose ideas that never ship. Building a working engineering function the traditional way takes six months or more — assuming the hires exist and stay. Typical retention before accumulated context walks out the door is 12–24 months. And async context silently fragments across seven-plus tools every day. Amos replaces that fragility with a system: context that accumulates and persists, orchestration that plans, builds, and verifies, and an auditable record of everything it did.How Amos compares
Cursor, Copilot, ChatGPT. Productivity tools. They augment engineers you already have — they make the engineers you have faster, but they don’t give you an engineering function. Devin, Perplexity and autonomous agents. Designed to hand off tasks in engineering organizations that already exist. They assume the team, the process, and the oversight are already in place. Amos replaces the engineering function itself — for small teams that don’t yet have one and can’t afford to build one from scratch. The division of labor is the point: Amos runs the function. You run the strategy. You stay involved at the governance points where your judgment matters: choosing between architectural paths, approving decisions that affect users, reviewing output before it ships.The four commitments
The pillars Amos was built on:- Persistent knowledge. Ingested from Slack, Notion, GitHub, Figma, transcripts, and email. When engineers leave, context stays.
- Multi-agent hierarchy. Planning, execution, and verification separated across four levels. How reliable engineering teams work.
- Cost-aware dispatch. Routine work runs on free local models. Frontier models handle high-value reasoning. Every call tracked.
- Audit-ready by default. Every action emits a typed event. Every call cost-tracked per tenant. Not a bolt-on. The design center.
Built with Amos: Pike
Pike is a modular DeFi money market and DEX liquidity venue, built end to end with Amos and deployed to production on Base — smart contracts, backend, oracle integration, frontend, and the audit trail. Not a demo. Amos reviews open-source codebases and monitors the security landscape, incorporating battle-tested patterns into how it builds. For smart contracts holding user funds, independent audits and formal verification remain essential — Amos complements that process rather than replacing it.Three ways to work with us
Open Framework — free. Source-available under BSL 1.1. Run Amos yourself, at any scale, in production. Software Amos generates belongs to you, and the license converts to Apache 2.0 after four years. Amos Cloud. We operate Amos on your behalf. You bring the codebase; we bring the platform, judgment, and oversight. Priced by capability, available to waitlist customers. Paid License. For institutional customers who need Amos inside their own cloud. Customer-hosted, per organization, with capability packs, premium support, and SLA.Early engagements
A small number of founding customers, each engaged deeply:- Rapid domain specialization. When a team lost operational continuity, we equipped Amos with the operational patterns it needed and delivered a scheduled scenario running end to end — no human in the loop — in days. New capability domains are added as declarative configuration, not code.
- Parallel-build validation. For codebases carrying real financial exposure, Amos rebuilds key components in parallel — full stack, smart contracts through database. Teams compare implementations, benchmark vendor work, and sharpen the audit surface before third-party review.
