Harness
Application
Engineering-intelligence module that tracks DORA metrics, developer productivity and AI coding-tool spend together: which AI tools teams use, token consumption by developer, team, agent and model, AI-authored code and its effect on delivery.
AI Firewall blocks prompt injection, evasion, and malicious payloads targeting AI applications.
AI and Cloud Costs translates natural-language governance intent into cloud rules and remediates violations automatically.
Detects and blocks API attacks, bots and Layer 7 DDoS with behavioral AI trained on live traffic, covering credential stuffing, account takeover and business-logic abuse such as BOLA and mass assignment.
AI agent
Developer tool
Reviews pull requests by grouping diffs by risk so the riskiest changes come first, enforcing required checks that cannot be bypassed, and citing delivery history and the knowledge graph for context.
AI SCA applies reachability analysis and EPSS scoring to open-source risk detection.
Creates intent-based tests and runs them within CI/CD pipelines with AI-assisted failure analysis.
LangWatch
Application
A LangWatch component that evaluates stored agent conversations, traces, and LLM calls against questions expressed in plain language.
AI agent
LangWatch's automated AI engineer: it reads production traces, clusters failures, writes tests and opens a pull request with CI checks, running on the customer's own model keys; you review and merge.
Developer tool
LangWatch LLM observability traces model calls, tool calls and retrieval steps while displaying costs, latency and errors.
No counterpart
Harness sells these in a stack layer with no product recorded for LangWatch yet — nothing on the other side to compare them against.
Agent platform
Governed AI agents defined in a committed file that run inside Harness pipelines on events such as CI failures and pull requests, with prebuilt agents for autofix, code review, code coverage, feature-flag cleanup, manifest remediation and IaCM remediation.
Platform
AI-native software delivery platform: pipelines and canary deployments, AI security testing, runtime API and AI protection, cost management and policy governance, driven by AI agents that recommend while people decide.
LangWatch sells these in a stack layer with no product recorded for Harness yet — nothing on the other side to compare them against.
API service
Gateway that puts every LLM call through one endpoint on the customer's own provider keys, with per-person, team, project and customer spending budgets, provider fallback, a trace for every call and webhooks for billing end customers.
