# Poolside > Enterprise AI foundation models and software agents for transforming how work gets done in organizations. Poolside is a frontier AI lab building foundation models, agents, and enterprise systems designed to transform how work gets done in organizations. The company focuses on creating the most capable AI models specifically for enterprise environments, with a strategic focus on software engineering as the path to artificial general intelligence. Poolside deploys AI solutions that help enterprises become agentic organizations, starting with software development workflows. The platform is battle-tested in high-consequence environments where reliability and security are paramount. - **Foundation Models** - Poolside deploys proprietary foundation models within your environment, measured against custom evaluations created collaboratively with your organization. - **Agents and Multi-Agent Orchestration** - Single and multi-agent systems capable of planning, using tools, and executing tasks in sandboxed environments, governed by policies with end-to-end traces. - **Developer Surfaces** - IDE extensions, binaries, and workflows that integrate seamlessly with engineering teams across their development ecosystem. - **Data and Knowledge Connectors** - Connect to repositories, databases, data warehouses, and private corpora within strict security boundaries. - **On-Premise Deployment** - Deploy on-prem, in your VPC, or on workstations with your data never leaving your control. Role-based access control for humans and agents by default. - **Forward Deployed Research Engineers** - Embedded engineers work with your teams to design, build, and operate AI intelligence where software work actually happens. - **Executive-Grade Governance** - Risk controls and auditability co-designed for enterprise review boards and CISO requirements. - **Complex Environment Support** - Works across heterogeneous environments including multi-cloud, legacy systems, and air-gapped networks without requiring rip-and-replace. To get started with Poolside, enterprises can reach out through their contact form to discuss whether the platform is right for their business needs. The company takes joint responsibility for outcomes, adoption, and measurable business impact rather than simply handing off models. ## Features - Foundation models for enterprise - Single and multi-agent systems - Multi-agent orchestration - IDE extensions - Developer workflows - Data and knowledge connectors - On-premise deployment - VPC deployment - Role-based access control - End-to-end traces - Sandboxed execution environments - Forward deployed research engineers - Executive-grade governance - Air-gapped network support - Multi-cloud support - Legacy system integration ## Integrations Repositories, Databases, Data warehouses, Private corpora, IDE extensions ## Platforms WEB, API, VSC_EXTENSION ## Pricing Paid ## Links - Website: https://poolside.ai - Documentation: https://docs.poolside.ai/ - EveryDev.ai: https://www.everydev.ai/tools/poolside
