Arcten is a platform designed to enable companies to integrate AI copilots into their applications quickly. It allows teams to deploy intelligent agents without developing extensive infrastructure. The service focuses on simplifying the process of making products AI-native through embedded copilots that handle multi-step workflows.
Arcten provides an SDK and distributed edge runtime that manage deployment, scaling, persistence, safety, and monitoring. Users can connect copilots to knowledge bases including databases, documents, and APIs. The platform supports hosted RAG, data connectors, guardrails, and analytics with session replays. Copilots integrate directly into applications, understanding context such as user preferences, application state, and history.
Deployment occurs in minutes by embedding the copilot with minimal code. It lives within the application, enabling natural language interactions for complex tasks spanning multiple functions, services, and APIs. Features include low-latency edge serving, model routing, observability, and enterprise security. Teams can build custom UI or use provided components.
