Akuity

Focus

Akuity is the enterprise software delivery platform built by the creators of Argo CD and Kargo. It brings GitOps deployment, release promotion, and application operations into one platform. Its Agentic Control Plane extends these capabilities to the AI agents teams already use. Through Akuity MCP, agents can inspect application health, investigate failures, and perform permitted delivery actions while Akuity enforces access controls and release requirements.

Background

Akuity was founded by Hong Wang, Jesse Suen, and Alexander Matyushentsev, who created Argo CD at Intuit to bring GitOps to Kubernetes deployment. They later created Kargo to solve continuous promotion across environments, a gap Argo CD doesn't cover on its own. Akuity was founded to run both projects at enterprise scale, adding the security, governance, and support an enterprise deployment requires.

Akuity main features

Set up and deploy applications

Configure delivery workflows, onboard applications, and deploy across Kubernetes clusters.

Promote releases across environments

Move releases through development, staging, and production with configured checks. Track promotion history and review release risk.

See what’s running and what changed

Check application health, compare running versions across environments, and trace deployments and recent changes across your fleet.

Investigate and resolve incidents

Use logs, events, and delivery history to diagnose failures. Work with Akuity’s agents to investigate, propose fixes, and perform permitted recovery actions.

Give AI agents controlled access to delivery

Connect existing agents through Akuity MCP. Let them inspect applications and perform delivery work within defined permissions, with audit records identifying changes made through MCP.
