We build the models. You build the future.

AGI for the enterprise—starting with software agents.

We build foundation models to transform how work gets done in the enterprise.

We are a frontier lab focused on building the most capable Foundation Models, agents and enterprise systems to deploy them.

Our mission is for artificial general intelligence to drive abundance for humanity.

This work begins in the highest-consequence environments—enterprises—where poolside is being battle-tested daily.

Helping enterprises become agentic organizations by mobilizing the most important technological development of our lifetimes. Starting with software.

Foundational AI, built and battle-hardened for enterprise.

Agents and Multi-Agent Orchestration
Single and multi-agent systems that can plan, use tools and execute in sandboxed environments. Governed by policies and end-to-end traces.
Developer Surfaces
IDE extensions, binaries and workflows that move with your engineers.
Data and Knowledge
Connectors to repositories, databases, data warehouses and private corpora within strict boundaries.
Foundation Models
poolside Foundation Models deployed in your environment. Measured against evaluations created together with you.
Delivering intelligence across your development ecosystem—from IDE to terminal, agents to custom applications.
Everywhere work gets done. → The poolside platform → The poolside platform
Your data. Your models. Your future.

Outcomes, not tokens. Inside your boundary.

Forward Deployed Research Engineers embed with your teams to design, build, and operate intelligence where your software work actually happens.

Outcome ownership

We don't hand off models. We take joint responsibility for outcomes, adoption and measurable, long-lasting business impact.

Inside your security boundary

Deploy on-prem, in your VPC or on workstations (defense only). Your data never leaves your control. Role-based access control for humans and agents by default.

Built for complex environments

We work across heterogeneous environments: multi-cloud, legacy systems and air-gapped networks. No rip-and-replace.

Executive-grade governance

Risk controls and auditability as a feature, co-designed in the toughest environments. All aligned to enterprise review boards and CISO requirements.

Your code. Your data.
Your model. Our velocity.

Our vision—the fastest path to AGI runs through software.

Our mission is: for artificial general intelligence to drive abundance for humanity.

We've chosen software engineering as our strategic beachhead because we believe it's the fastest route to human-level intelligence.

Software development requires understanding the world, the ability to do multistep complex reasoning, and the ability to plan across long-horizon objectives. In other words, software development mirrors human reasoning. Humans learn by grokking the why as well as the what, and reinforcement learning allows foundation models to do the same.

By building models with these capabilities, we're building toward a future where AI drives down costs of goods & services while accelerating scientific progress.

So we're starting with the hardest problems first: high-consequence software for high-consequence applications, charting the path to human-level AI.
