For platform teams
Unblock the org. Run common ops. Stay sane.
The tension between velocity engineers and platform teams is structural, not adversarial. Both sides are doing their jobs. Restriction does not resolve the tension; a governed path does. The governed path needs to be the path of least resistance, and the platform team needs something they can actually operate.
Speed, with Control
Move at AI speed without the discovery debt
Every technology investment is a balance of speed, cost, and risk. AI has pushed speed to the top of the agenda, and agents now ship in days rather than quarters. The platform team's job is to make sure that velocity doesn't manufacture cost and risk in equal measure.
Speed and control trade off only when the governed path is harder than the ungoverned one. Dome makes registration self-service, attaches policy by default, and emits audit at the call site. Velocity engineers keep shipping. Platform keeps up. Security keeps the evidence chain.
The job is to say yes, by default.
Value
What platform teams get from Dome
Make the governed path the default
Velocity engineers build agents faster than you can review them. The ungoverned path is the only path most teams have. Dome makes registration a self-service step, with authentication, authorization, and audit attached by default.
One ops layer across every surface
SDK, CLI, API, and MCP all sit on the same control plane underneath. You don't pick the surface the org adopts. You make sure all of them resolve back to one tenant, one identity model, and one audit trail.
Compose, don't replace
Dome reuses your IdP, your SIEM, your secrets store, and your APM. Agent identity rolls up to your enterprise identity. Audit streams to your security data lake. The systems your team already operates do the work for agents too.
Policy as code, lifecycle like code
Cedar rules live in a repo. Versioned. Simulatable against the last 24 hours of traffic before they roll out. Rolled back the same way you roll back any other deploy. Platform discipline applied to a surface that has rarely had it.
Outcomes
What changes in the first 90 days
The work in the first quarter looks like infrastructure work usually does: register, observe, attach policy, integrate with the systems you already run. The compounding payoff is that the path you build now is the path every future agent flows through.
First governed agent in an afternoon
A working SDK call, a registered agent, a Cedar rule, an audit query. The path your velocity engineers will reach for next time.
Discovery without restriction
Every agent that registers shows up. You can scope, observe, and reason about what's running without saying no to the team that built it.
Common contract with security
Security gets authentication, authorization, and attribution in shapes they already reason about. Your meetings turn from incidents into roadmap discussions.
Headroom as the estate grows
Adding an agent is a registration. Adding a tool is a configuration. Adding a model is a pool entry. None of these scale the team that operates them.
