GitHub friendly
Fine-tune permissions to your repos, manage organizations, trigger pipelines on PRs, and send status checks to secure code before merging – Buddy is the perfect match for GitHub.
A tool for years
Embrace newest tech
Build frontend and backend with your favorite framework, attach databases for tests, orchestrate containers on Kubernetes, develop Android and iOS apps – whatever you do, Buddy got you covered.
Control your budget
With Buddy you don't have to hire a full-time DevOps engineer to keep an eye on your CI/CD process. It's so easy even the office cat can do that.
Configuration-as-Code
If you prefer traditional scripting, you can define pipelines top-to-bottom in the terminal – or build a pipeline via the UI and export the configuration to YAML.
Your work is safe
Full control
Define the scope of access to your source code and pipelines. Create developer groups and assign team managers to track progress.
SSO and 2FA
Secure your workspace by enforcing Single Sign-On and Two-Factor authentication.
SOC 2 Certified
Buddy is officially SOC 2 Type 2 certified and runs on PCI-compliant AWS architecture, with regular audits by SecurityMetrics.

“Buddy really does great in doing the advanced more simple. They make us play with it in a whole different way. Before you had to code your pipelines, now you just drag and drop your pipelines. What's more to ask for?”
