An AI team that never switches off

From idea to production‑ready.
Ergates builds, tests and ships the app.

Your own analysts, designers, developers and sysops, on call day and night. They research, build, test and keep things running, as many at once as the work needs, on hardware you own. You decide at the moments that matter.

How it works

From an idea to an app in production

  1. 01 · Idea

    You say what you want

    In plain language, on a card on the board. One sentence will do; the questions follow.

  2. 02 · Analysis

    Your analyst writes a spec

    Asks questions, writes the plan, splits big cards into parts and picks the model for each card, based on what worked before.

  3. 03 · Design

    Your designer draws the design

    Screens for the spec, in the style of your app, before anything gets built.

  4. 04 · Build

    Your developers build in parallel

    Each part on its own branch, with targeted tests and a warm start. One integration, one pull request.

  5. 05 · Verify

    Verify green, review green

    Only when tests and review pass does the card land on your desk.

  6. 06 · Release

    You approve, Ergates deploys

    Blue/green to production with zero downtime, rolled back in a single tap. Only after your approval.

Gates in code

  • Ready for dev
  • Approved
  • Release

Only a human can set Ready for dev, Approved and Release.

Only after your approval.

Not in a prompt, but in the code.

Release

Blue/green to production, with zero downtime

Rolled back in a single tap. Only pushed commits go live, and every version is kept in a ledger.

  1. dev
  2. uat
  3. prod

Always on

A team that never sleeps, for more than code

Building software is what Ergates does best. But the same team also researches and keeps your systems healthy, even at three in the morning.

BUILD

From idea to app in production

Spec, design, code, tests and a zero-downtime deploy. The core.

RESEARCH

Research and analysis

Market, competitors, feasibility and cost, with sources and a confidence level for every claim.

KEEP IT RUNNING

Operations

Watches servers, deploys, mail and certificates, and tells you when something needs your attention.

Specialists who join when the project calls for it

Your analyst brings them in, or you add them to a card with a label.

at step 02 · new product

Market analyst

Market, competitors and pricing, with sources, before a single line of code.

at step 02 · money and budget

Finance

Cost estimate, revenue model and business case, with a clear kill criterion.

before go-live

Red team

Tries to break the plan or the app: weak spots, abuse, the strongest counter-argument.

wherever you want

Your own specialist

An agent is a single file. Drop it into the cockpit; you decide what it may do.

The cockpit

One screen. Everything in view.

What is waiting for you, what is running and how the platform is doing, at the office and on the go. A go or a release always needs a second confirmation.

  • Today: the three things waiting for you, not thirty
  • Build: every card with a timeline, a live log and what it costs
  • Platform: health, settings and keys in one place
  • Emergency page: bare-bones and always readable, even when the rest is down

Built in

Everything an app needs, no extra services

Your own Git and board

Code, pull requests and cards stay inside the platform.

Dev, uat and prod per app

Each with its own network and database, and a mailbox for tests.

Mail per domain

Mailboxes and webmail, with SPF, DKIM and DMARC set up automatically.

Warm runs

Cached dependencies and test databases; agents get going straight away.

A memory for every app

Slow tests and fragile modules carry over into every next run.

Provenance for every deploy

Only pushed commits go live, and every version is kept in a ledger.

You hold the keys

Autonomous where it can, you where it counts

Gates in code
Only a human can set Ready for dev, Approved and Release. Not in a prompt, but in the code.
Budgets and limits
Runs per card per day, turns per run, quiet hours. An agent cannot keep going forever.
Your own hardware
Code, data and mail live on your server. No third-party platform APIs for your source code.
Everything is on the record
Every decision in an ADR, every run with its cost and log, every deploy with who and when.
