*Executive summary:* Factory is on a mission to bring autonomous software engineering to the enterprise, moving developers from micromanaging code to directing high-level systems. By leveraging Gemini Enterprise Agent Platform, Factory created "Droids," AI agents capable of operating autonomously for days to execute complex migrations and full-lifecycle tasks. This agent-native approach allows organizations to scale their engineering capacity as if they were adding thousands of employees overnight, with Factory providing the essential governance and security layers needed for enterprise-grade deployment.

*Challenge:* Today, 90% of a software developer's work is repetitive, rote labor, from managing source control shortcuts to documentation and code review. As organizations grow, managing these tasks across 45,000+ engineers becomes a massive governance hurdle. Traditional AI tools often stop at simple code suggestions, failing to handle the multi-step, long-term migrations that keep large enterprises stuck in technical debt. Enterprises need an agentic solution that can operate in sensitive, air-gapped environments without sacrificing auditability, logging, or security — and that’s where Factory steps in.

*Solution:* Factory built its autonomous agent, Droid, as a model-agnostic system that relies heavily on Gemini for its massive context window and reasoning capabilities. Through a research partnership with Google DeepMind, Factory optimized Gemini to navigate complex file systems and execute multi-step plans just like a human engineer. By partnering with Google Cloud for hyperscale inference and NVIDIA through the Inception program, Factory provides the compute power and secure frameworks necessary for agents to operate autonomously for weeks at a time.

*Result:* The impact of Factory’s Droids is transforming software development across the globe. In one landmark success, autonomous agents executed a 16-day code migration involving 10 million lines of code — including data models, QA, and testing — completely without human intervention. This shift has enabled Factory’s larger partners to achieve 7-10x velocity in shipping products to market. Today, hundreds of thousands of enterprise developers are using Droids to handle everything from project management to deployment, allowing human engineers to spend 100% of their time on the rewarding parts of development: high-level creative problem solving.

*Highlights and key takeaways from our interview with Eno Reyes, CTO & Co-founder at Factory:*

→ “Right now we have hundreds of thousands of enterprise developers who are fully shipping code autonomously with Droids… There's only one company that has Gemini at that scale of inference, and partnering with Google to achieve that has been an unbelievably smooth ride.”

→ “Our work with Google Cloud and with NVIDIA has enabled us to solve a totally new set of business challenges for the largest enterprises in the world.”

→ “We chose to work with Google Cloud and NVIDIA because they're two of the organizations that are leading the charge in frontier enterprise AI deployment.”
