Remove platform friction.
Enable developers.

Your devs already use AI to interact with your platform. Unlock the full potential of that shift.

Context for agentic coding

Heplon brings platform capabilities and knowledge into Claude Code and other agentic coding tools, so devs stay in flow.

iTerm2
> Generate the required K8s manifests so that the metrics exposed by my service get scraped and exported to DataDog.
I'll first check how your platform wires metrics into DataDog.
heplon_ask(question: "How does our platform scrape metrics from app pods and forward them to DataDog? What annotations or CRDs should a service add to opt in?")
Result:
We run the DataDog Cluster Agent with the OpenMetrics check auto-discovery enabled via pod annotations. Services opt in by adding ad.datadoghq.com/<container>.* annotations.
Got it. I'll generate a Deployment + Service patch using the ad.datadoghq.com/* annotations.

First-level dev support

Add Heplon to a Slack or Teams channel. An agent running in Heplon will resolve issues for developers based on live system state and knowledge of the specifics of your platform.

The pipeline passed, but k8s says the image can't be pulled. See argocd.acme.com/applications/shopping-cart-service

Heplon APP 9:14 AM

Your pipeline pushes to the legacy Harbor registry, but we switched over to GHCR last week (post in #platform-announcements).

I opened an MR to fix the CI config: gitlab.acme.com/backend/shopping-cart/-/merge_requests/482

Keep an eye on the 500s in checkout-service for the next 3 hours and ping me here if any occur.

On it. I'll watch checkout-service until 5:41 PM and DM you if there are any 500s.


Identify friction

Because Heplon sits between developers and the platform, it sees recurring questions and tasks across your org. Get a ranked view of where developers lose time to inform your roadmap.

Self-updating docs

Developer questions and conversations reveal where docs fall short. Heplon spots those gaps and opens an MR to fix them, keeping your knowledge base in sync with how things actually work.

Heads up, the new AWS Secrets Manager setup is done and we are moving off Vault for new projects.

Fast setup, no maintenance

Heplon ships with integrations for your platform and for clients such as Slack or Claude Code. You don't need to maintain the wiring.

Inherit permissions via OAuth

Heplon acts as the developer, not as a privileged service account. Every action runs with the developer's own OAuth permissions so audit trails and access controls stay intact.

Security & data protection

Your Heplon instance runs inside your infrastructure or in a dedicated single-tenant AWS environment. Your data is never used for model training.

Common questions

Why can't we just connect Claude Code and similar services to our docs, repos, CI/CD, ...?

We encourage you to try. If it works well enough for you, that's great; Heplon isn't for you. That said, in our experience:

DIY with Claude Heplon
Answer quality Retrieves knowledge from heterogeneous sources from scratch, leading to lower-quality answers Uses preprocessing on knowledge sources for more accurate answers
Integrations You set up and maintain connections to CI/CD, Kubernetes, ... Ships with deep integrations out of the box
Platform insights No visibility into platform-wide friction or where support time is spent Analytics on developer interactions and support toil
Continuous improvement Doesn't learn across conversations with different team members; the same issue gets reinvestigated from scratch each time Recognises recurring problems the second time they appear
Escalation No escalation path when Claude hits its limits Loops in the right platform engineer with full context attached
Where does my data go?

Your Heplon instance runs on-prem or in a dedicated single-tenant AWS environment. Your data is never used for model training.

Who we are

At our previous job, we built the platform for 300+ developers. We were keen to use AI to eliminate friction for developers and toil for platform engineers. But we quickly realized that doing this well would take a lot of time away from actual platform engineering work. We started Heplon to allow our peers to harness the potential of AI for platforms, without adding to their workload.
