AI operations: from diagnosis to action

The trust layerfor AI operations

AI runs your production operations. You stay in control.

Human approvals. Policy guardrails. Audit trails. Rollback.

the problem

Nobody standardized the platform.

Kubernetes made the primitives standard. The layer above them never was, and it now has to answer a question it was never built for: what is allowed to run.

  1. 01

    Kubernetes made pods, services and volumes one API. That part is finished.

  2. 02

    The layer between those primitives and your customers was never standardized.

  3. 03

    So every company builds it again. And then keeps building it, because day two never ends.

  4. 04

    Standardize that layer and it stops being something you maintain.

  5. 05

    And it becomes the one place that can decide what is allowed to run.

the platform

Your infrastructure. Your blueprint.

A standard runtime and trust layer under the platform you compose. Nova operates through it for deeper context and safer execution.

Create a cluster in your account, or join one you already run.

the category shift

AI can diagnose. Production needs control.

AI expresses intent. The runtime decides what runs.

your environment

  1. 01

    You ask, in plain language, from the browser, terminal, editor, or Slack.

  2. 02

    Nova reads your clusters, apps, rollouts, CVEs, and spend as first-party state. It is not holding a tool that can change anything.

  3. 03

    A scoped plan: steps sequenced, dependencies stated, approval points marked.

  4. 04

    One approval, and the runtime is the thing that holds it, not the model.

  5. 05

    It runs inside a scope it cannot exceed, in your own cloud account.

  6. 06

    Every revision stays on the record, including the ones the platform made on its own.

how teams use it

Work with Nova wherever your team operates

Browser, terminal, editor, and Slack over one managed backend. Start in one, continue in another, with the same session throughout.

prompt to production · preview

Ship from your editor.

Describe what you want from Claude Code, Cursor, or VS Code. Your repository is read, a blueprint is resolved, and the deployment is written with the production settings most services only get after an incident.

/deploy this service to dev

localdevstagingprod

Deploy builds for the entry environment. Promotion moves the image that was already validated rather than building a new one, and an environment will not take a release until the one before it is healthy.

deploy on your terms

Keep control of your environment

Your clusters connect out, never in. Access is issued one time and never held.

  1. 01

    Your cluster opens the connection. Nothing dials in from our side.

  2. 02

    Access is issued one time and expires. Nothing long-lived to leak, nothing to rotate by hand.

  3. 03

    Scoped to your organization, and revocable from your cloud provider at any time.

  4. 04

    You choose how data is handled, including local execution that keeps it inside your boundary.

Security
Credentials encrypted at rest and in transit
Role-based access control and approval-aware workflows
Audit trails for platform operations
Organization-scoped access: operators see only their environment
Scoped cloud access, revocable at any time from your cloud provider
How it works
  1. 1Connect AstroPulse to your cloud account with scoped access
  2. 2Operate through Nova, the Astro Platform console, or CLI
  3. 3Keep operational data in your environment when using local model execution
  4. 4Revoke access or change policy boundaries at any time
