Harness is an AI-driven software delivery platform for engineering and platform teams, covering CI, CD and GitOps, feature flags, infrastructure as code, security testing and cloud cost management. It is sold as modules that are bundled in Essentials or chosen individually in Enterprise. The vendor was founded in 2017 and positions it as an autonomous SDLC platform.
Teams connect repositories, artifact stores and infrastructure to Harness and define pipelines from templates. Deployments roll out with canary checks and approval gates, while security scans and cost tracking run in the same platform. An SDLC knowledge graph combines build, deployment, security and cost data to improve recommendations.
Harness serves enterprise engineering, platform and security teams. The vendor lists Citi, United Airlines, Ancestry, Morningstar, Workday, Experian, ADP and The Home Depot as customers. It lists SOC 1 Type II, SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001, FedRAMP 20x Class A, GDPR, DORA and NIS2.
Harness Free is $0 for individual developers and small teams and includes Harness Open Source and Litmus Chaos. Essentials is an all-in-one bundle of CD and GitOps, CI, IaC management and security testing orchestration, priced by quotation. Enterprise lets buyers choose from 14 modules with premier support and is also quoted. The vendor does not list a free trial beyond the free plan.
Harness says it integrates deeply with builds, deployments, security scans, artifacts and infrastructure, and its cost tracking covers Anthropic, OpenAI, AWS Bedrock and Google Vertex. The vendor does not name specific tools on its homepage.
Buildkite runs CI on agents you host and does not include feature flags or cost management. CircleCI is a hosted CI/CD service with a simpler setup, and TeamCity is JetBrains' CI server. Harness differs by covering CD, security and cost in one platform.
