Harness is a platform for engineering teams that want to automate software delivery with AI agents. The homepage describes it as the Autonomous SDLC Platform that ships AI code as fast as it is written, catches risk before it ships, and governs every pipeline. It lists agents for software delivery, security testing, runtime protection, and cost management. The software delivery agent takes changes from commit to production, while the security testing agent uses AI reasoning to find vulnerabilities. The runtime protection agent guards APIs, AI agents, and apps. The cost management agent tracks AI and cloud spending. Governance features include policy-as-code, full audit trails, and human-in-the-loop approvals. The pricing page shows a free plan for individual developers and small teams, an Essentials plan, and a modular Enterprise plan. The free plan includes Harness Open Source and Litmus Chaos. Paid plans require contacting sales. The homepage mentions large usage numbers, such as 5.7 million deployments per month and 250 billion API calls protected per month. A careful buyer should check which modules are included in each plan, since the Enterprise plan is modular.
