These products provide orchestration frameworks, sandboxed execution environments, and APIs designed to build, test, and host autonomous AI agents. They are primarily used by software engineers and technical teams deploying complex, multi-agent systems into production. Unlike general LLM tooling or consumer-facing chatbots, this cluster specifically focuses on the backend runtimes, control planes, and simulation environments required for agentic workflows.
