The company behind Kin
Firelock is a technology company that experiments in the open and turns what works into products. Our flagship is Kin, a new code repository built around connected software.
What we do
AI shouldn't have to reconstruct the software before it can improve it. Today, coding agents rebuild their picture of a codebase every session, and reviewers see which lines changed, not what else that change might affect.
Kin keeps track of how the code fits together, giving people and AI a better starting point for the next change. It's open source and works alongside Git.
Developers and engineering teams who build software with AI coding agents, and the people who review what those agents change.
Products
Kin is our flagship. Everything else we build starts as an experiment and earns its place by being useful.
