Production-grade platform operations.
Engineered to scale.

For infrastructure engineers, administrators and governance specialists: one platform for operational and research workloads that scales to zero when idle, runs on-premises and in the cloud, enforces security as code, and automates routine administration.

Scale to Zero

Idle workspaces scale to zero, so compute spend tracks activity rather than provisioned capacity. Baseline infrastructure costs remain.

Infrastructure-Agnostic by Design

KARECTL is in production on-premises and on Microsoft Azure, from a shared configuration with small environment-specific additions, so organisations can choose, and move to, the most suitable infrastructure.

Security as Code

Security and compliance rules are defined in code, not documents: policy enforcement, runtime threat detection, network isolation and configuration scanning, all versioned, auditable and continuously enforced.

AI-Assisted Remediation

AI agents interpret alerts and platform telemetry, then propose fixes for engineers to approve or apply pre-approved routine ones. Their actions are logged, and repetitive work for engineers is reduced.

Automated Workspaces

Many TREs rely on manual administration of every workspace. KARECTL automates provisioning, configuration and decommissioning, so administrators govern by policy rather than by hand.

One Platform, Many Uses

Operational AI and research share one architecture, one set of controls and one operating model, each in its own governed environment.

Maintained and Observable

Version-controlled configuration, dashboards and real-time alerting make the platform maintainable as an ongoing service, helping surface issues before users are affected.
