The open source framework for platform orchestration

Build platform capabilities once. Deliver them consistently to developers, automation, and AI agents. Upgrade and maintain capabilities and related policy across the entire fleet for day two and beyond.

Produce

Enable platform teams and specialists to create and evolve platform capabilities.

Create once. Consume anywhere. Maintain everywhere. 

Platform teams define capabilities as Promises, combining infrastructure, workflows, policies, and operational expertise into reusable building blocks.

 

Whether requests originate from developer portals, APIs, CLIs, GitOps workflows, MCPs, automation, or AI agents, the same capabilities can be consumed through a consistent, governed experience. 

 

Upgrade, govern, and operate platform capabilities consistently across clusters, environments, and teams without creating operational drift. 

Composable by design 

Model platform capabilities as APIs (Promises). Compose them into powerful platforms without re-inventing the wheel.

Workflow automation 

Codify the full lifecycle with opinionated or custom workflows. From request to day-two operations.

Good Platform Teams Make Promises 

Building capabilities across the organisation

​

Platform teams and experts collaborate using Kratix to produce platform capabilities  (Promises) that your organisation requires to delivery software effectively: 

​

  • Application environments

  • Kubernetes namespaces 

  • AI sandboxes 

  • CI/CD pipelines 

  • Compliance patterns 

  • Databases 

  • Blob storage

  • Messaging platforms

  • Observability stacks

  • Identity and access services

  • Internal APIs

  • Secret management

​

Every Promise becomes a reusable building block that can be consumed consistently across the organisation.

Great Platform Teams Serve Humans and Agents 

Supporting the future of software delivery

​

As AI becomes part of the software delivery lifecycle, platform capabilities must be safely exposed to both people and machines.​ Kratix supports this and more:

​

  • Elite teams make capabilities available through the interfaces that developers, automation, and AI systems already use 

  • They maintain governance, policy, and lifecycle controls across human and machine usage 

  • Kratix is the orchestration layer behind your portal, CLI, API, GitOps flow, or AI agent.

Elite Platform Teams Keep Their Promises 

Upgrading and managing lifecycles from day 2 to 2000

​

​Kratix is a platform-building framework, not a portal. It enables you to build platforms that are unique to your business but common across your teams. 

​

  • Kratix integrates, composes, and adds lifecycle management to the tools you already use

  • Upgrade platform capabilities across hundreds or thousands of consumers without rebuilding developer workflows.

  • Apply governance, policy, and security changes consistently as your platform evolves.

  • Kratix doesn't simply bolt on a UI or act as a code/configuration template factory.

Learn more about Syntasso Kratix Agentic (SKA) 

Most organisations can expose platform capabilities. 

​

The challenge is ensuring every request, whether it comes from a developer, a portal, an automation workflow, or an AI agent, follows the same policies, approvals, and lifecycle controls. 

​

Kratix provides the orchestration and governance layer that makes this possible.
