Today, our benchmark, Legacy-Bench, joins @FireworksAI_HQ’s Specialized Intelligence Index. Frontier models have blind spots for legacy code, what’s benchmarked is improved. Legacy-Bench tests how well AI models can debug, extend, and migrate historic systems, to drive the future of software.

Value is created when intelligence is deployed. Today, we’re launching the Factory Partner Network, supported by a $100 million investment in partnerships to help enterprises deploy their software factory. We're deeply invested in the success of enterprise customers. Moving AI from pilot to production takes more than AI-powered code generation; it takes trusted and talented partners who understand the organization, the technology, and the stakes.

Security-sensitive teams should not have to move source code, context, or execution outside their environment to operate their software factory. Factory runs on @nvidia DGX Spark with NVIDIA Nemotron 3.5 Lightning, giving teams a local path to investigate issues, modify code, run tests, and prepare changes for review. For on-premises and air-gapped deployments.

When an alert fires (from @Sentry, @Rootlyhq, @axiomhq, @datadoghq), Droid opens a session, reads the logs, and finds root cause. Say there's a usage spike causing duplicate backend requests: it pinpoints the logic, reports in @Slackhq, and can automatically ship the fix.
