Netlify has launched Agent Runners, a groundbreaking feature that integrates leading AI coding agents into its platform, enabling developers and teams to efficiently manage live web applications. This innovation allows seamless collaboration between humans and AI, streamlining updates and reducing production delays.
Netlify introduces Agent Runners for AI-driven web development.
Integrates Claude Code, Codex, and Gemini in Netlify Dashboard.
Enables parallel task handling and cross-team contributions.
Saves developers ~3 hours weekly, reducing backlog delays.
Enhances production with real-time codebase and deploy access.
Available now for all credit-based Netlify plan users.
Netlify's Agent Runners bring AI coding agents like Claude Code, Codex, and Gemini directly into the Netlify Dashboard, allowing developers to run these agents on live projects. Unlike standalone AI tools limited to prototyping, Agent Runners support both new and existing applications, enabling any teammate to contribute without deep technical expertise. This integration ensures updates are applied swiftly, with access to the codebase, logs, and deploy pipeline.
"I've seen plenty of AI coding assistants that can code, but the real challenge has always been validation in an environment that truly matches your live infrastructure. Netlify's new coding agent completely changed that. No surprises when you deploy, no waiting for staging, no mysterious production-only bugs." — Gus Fune, CTO, BÆRSkin Tactical
Netlify’s platform connects every stage of AI-driven web development, addressing post-launch challenges where backlogs often grow. Developers can start with prototypes from partners like Bolt or Rocket, deploy instantly, and scale projects using tools like Copilot and Cursor through Netlify’s MCP Server or Git workflows. Agent Runners extend AI capabilities to production, enabling parallel task execution and safe updates across teams.
"Developers everywhere are exploring new ways to bring AI into their day-to-day work. That's why OpenAI models are available on Netlify, in the environments where developers already build and deploy." — Marc Namara, Head of Startups, OpenAI
Agent Runners deliver measurable results. Marketing teams can ship campaign updates ten times faster, with tasks like adding redirects completed in under three minutes. Early adopters report clearing weeks of maintenance debt in days, recovering approximately $18,000 in annual capacity per developer. This efficiency minimizes production bugs and accelerates iteration.
"AI coding agents are transforming how software gets built and who gets to build it," said Matt Biilmann, co-founder and CEO, Netlify. "We're in a moment of time where we can go from developers and stakeholders to one team of collaborators, with humans and agents working together from previews to production. Agent Runners make this shift practical today and is a core pillar of our AX strategy."
Agent Runners are accessible to all Netlify users on credit-based plans, with new users able to sign up and start using AI features within minutes at netlify.com. This launch sets a new standard for agent experience (AX), enabling teams to collaborate, update, and ship at scale.
Netlify is the platform where agents and developers build together. More than 8.5 million developers, creators, and teams use Netlify to build, launch, and scale sites and applications on a single platform. Whether building with AI or writing code, Netlify makes it simple for any developer to bring ideas to life on the web. As the company that coined the term agent experience (AX), Netlify is leading a new era where humans and AI agents work together to shape the future of the web. Global brands including Bolt, Figma, Mattel, and Riot Games trust Netlify to power their digital experiences. Learn more at netlify.com.
