Factory is a San Francisco-based startup founded in 2023 by Matan Grinberg and Eno Reyes. It provides an agent-native software development platform built around "Droids" — autonomous AI agents that can plan, write code, run tests, review pull requests, respond to incidents, manage documentation, and handle ticket triage across multi-step, long-horizon tasks. Rather than acting as a code autocomplete tool, Factory positions itself as an orchestration layer that replaces or augments entire engineering workflows. Droids operate across multiple interfaces: a desktop app, CLI, SDK, and cloud sandboxes called "Droid Computers" for remote workloads. They integrate natively with GitHub, GitLab, Slack, Jira, and Datadog, and can coordinate across multiple repositories and systems over days of wall-clock time. Factory claims Droids rank first on Terminal Bench for autonomous task execution quality. Factory serves enterprise customers including Nvidia, Adobe, EY, Palo Alto Networks, Adyen, Morgan Stanley, MongoDB, Bayer, and Zapier, with hundreds of thousands of developers reportedly using Droids daily. The company has grown revenue month-over-month for six consecutive months as of early 2026. In April 2026, Factory raised a $150M Series C led by Khosla Ventures at a $1.5B valuation, with participation from Sequoia Capital, Blackstone, Insight Partners, NEA, and Mantis VC — bringing total funding to approximately $220M. Factory's "Factory 2.0" vision, announced in 2026, extends the product from individual coding agents toward interconnected "software factories": end-to-end, agent-native systems that handle entire engineering pipelines autonomously. The company plans to expand internationally with a London office opened Q2 2026 and a Tokyo presence planned for Q3 2026.
