# Warp Factories overview

Warp Factories give engineering teams open, flexible infrastructure for building and operating their own cloud software factories.

\[STUB — pending content from HYC/content team for the 8/18 closed-beta soft launch. Owner: HYC. This page is the Factories tab landing page (`/factories/`).

Cover, per the launch positioning:

-   What a software factory is (automation loop around the SDLC: triage, spec, implement, review, verify) and why teams are building them
-   How Warp Factories relates to Warp Agent / Warp Terminal / the CLI (decoupled products that interoperate)
-   The “open, flexible infrastructure” positioning: AI sovereignty, bring-your-own inference/hosting, factory definitions as code
-   Closed beta status + apply/waitlist CTA (mention the $10k qualified-org usage offer if approved for this surface)

See `.agents/references/terminology.md` → “Warp Factories terminology” for the baseline glossary (factory, software factory, work item, Factory MCP, control room, etc.) to write against.
