CircleCI is a continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD) platform that automates the build, test, and deployment of software. Founded in San Francisco in 2011, it runs tens of millions of workflows for engineering teams who want faster, more reliable pipelines without maintaining their own build infrastructure. It does not host code or track tickets - it focuses on being a fast, dependable runner of builds and, increasingly, on validating AI-generated code at scale.
Faros AI is an AI-native engineering intelligence platform that pulls data from the tools software teams already use - GitHub, Jira, CI/CD, incident systems and more - and turns it into a single view of how engineering work actually flows. Founded by the ex-Salesforce team that built Einstein, Faros helps engineering leaders measure DORA metrics, track delivery, quantify the ROI of AI coding assistants like GitHub Copilot, and automate R&D cost capitalization across the full software development lifecycle.
