What they do

Problem

Engineering teams are overwhelmed by the volume and trustworthiness of AI-generated pull requests, making code review harder and slower.

Solution

Haystack is an agent-native control layer on top of GitHub that evaluates each pull request using context and verification evidence to route it for automatic progression, fixes, or human review.

Who it's for

Software engineering teams using GitHub and coding agents to generate code changes.
