Depot

About

Depot gives engineering teams the fast source control, builds, CI runners, sandboxes, caches, and registries they need to ship reliable software they trust at AI speed. Companies like PostHog, Inference, Wistia, PlanetScale, Poolside, Astral, and Semgrep use Depot to power their entire software delivery stack. Kyle and Jacob worked together as staff engineers for 4.5 years at Thorn and Era Software, before founding Depot. Depot is their take on what software delivery and a replacement for GitHub could look like in the world of AI.
