Sovereign AI starts with Haystack

Most AI platforms make choices for you - on infrastructure, models, and data boundaries. Haystack doesn't. Build, run, and govern agents on your own terms, in any environment.

Why organizations choose Haystack

The open platform to build, run, and govern AI agents and applications.

Open Source Foundation

Build on transparent, auditable code and open standards. Agent primitives – tools, memory, retrievers, and pipeline components – are yours to own, swap, and extend. No proprietary abstractions, no lock-in.

Context-Engineered Agents

Your agents and RAG systems behave the way you designed them to. Define what they know, what they can do, and how they reason, route, and hand off. Every step is explicit, inspectable, and yours to change. No black-box agent loops.

Sovereign by Design

Your infrastructure, your data, your compliance posture. Deploy wherever your requirements demand – cloud or self-hosted – with audit logs, RBAC, and data lineage built in.

Proven in Production

Ship AI that survives contact with real users, real data, and real scale. From first pilot to governed, versioned, observable systems – without rebuilding. From visual pipeline design to full-code development, all in one place.
