> Infrastructure that lets agents autonomously operate businesses. Pick a company template, deploy it, and watch an agent team run it on the Vetta runtime, using 53 governed primitives across 9 categories.

## Core
- [Homepage](https://usenaive.ai): Product overview
- [Agent manifest (skill.md)](https://usenaive.ai/skill.md): **Read this first.** The onboarding manifest for a coding agent, how to clone a template, claim it, and run `naive up`. Where this index and skill.md disagree, skill.md wins.
- [Docs](https://usenaive.ai/docs): CLI, SDK, and REST reference
- [Pricing](https://usenaive.ai/pricing): Standard ($20/mo, 7-day free trial) and Pro ($200/mo) plans, each with its price included as credit, and the meters

## Templates
- [Templates directory](https://usenaive.ai/templates): Company templates, each a public repository with a naive.config.ts
- [Naive Short Form v1](https://usenaive.ai/templates/ai-media-channel): Short vertical video, every piece original: briefed, scripted, generated in the channel's own look, and queued for you by an agent team on a schedule.
- [Naive Long Form v1](https://usenaive.ai/templates/long-form-channel): One subject a piece, researched until every claim has a source and planned against real videos of the same length, then rendered a minute at a time and joined into one finished file. (coming soon)

### Runtime
- [Computer](https://usenaive.ai/primitives/computer): A disposable Linux box with a shell, a filesystem, and a real browser.
- [Completion windows](https://usenaive.ai/primitives/completion-window): One model, three prices. Wait longer, pay less. The cheap lane never silently upgrades.
- [Cron](https://usenaive.ai/primitives/deployments): Wake on a schedule, spend a budget, deliver. Recurring work without a machine left on.
- [Sessions](https://usenaive.ai/primitives/sessions): A durable run: wake, take a turn, commit, sleep. Interrupt and steer over REST.

- [Model routing](https://usenaive.ai/primitives/model-router): Name any model. Vetta routes it. Swap providers without changing the agent.
- [Budgets](https://usenaive.ai/primitives/budgets): A USD cap quoted before every call. The run stops rather than overspending.

## Blog
- [Blog index](https://usenaive.ai/blogs)
- [Vetta: the most efficient managed agent for long horizon tasks](https://usenaive.ai/blogs/introducing-vetta): Same model, same tasks, only the stack changed: Vetta finishes a task 2.7x cheaper than the next-best harness while completing more of them. We built every layer of the stack to make that number possible.
- [Introducing the computer: a micro-VM for every agent session](https://usenaive.ai/blogs/introducing-sandbox): Every Vetta session gets an isolated Linux micro-VM with a shell, a filesystem and an optional real browser. It pauses between turns, so an idle agent costs storage only. Here is how it works and what it costs.
- [What is an AI-native cloud? The hosting slice an agent operates](https://usenaive.ai/blogs/what-is-an-ai-native-cloud): An AI-native cloud is the hosting and data slice an agent can provision by API: apps, Postgres, storage, functions, auth, compute, queues and sandboxes, gated by allow / ask / deny policies and a USD budget.
- [What is AI agent infrastructure? The runtime and gateway layers](https://usenaive.ai/blogs/what-is-ai-agent-infrastructure): AI agent infrastructure is the runtime an agent loop runs on plus the gateway primitives it acts through, with policy enforced at every tool call. A map of the nine categories.
- [Naïve inside your agent framework: skill.md, MCP tools, policies](https://usenaive.ai/blogs/naive-inside-your-agent-framework): Keep the coding agent or orchestrator you already use. Point it at usenaive.ai/skill.md, reach every Naïve primitive as an MCP tool, and gate each one with allow, ask, or deny.
- [How to revoke an AI agent's access instantly](https://usenaive.ai/blogs/how-to-revoke-ai-agent-access-instantly): Six ways to cut an agent off on Naïve: interrupt or cancel the session, delete the vault credential, revoke the connection, revoke the API key, deny the tool. Why network-boundary injection makes each one instant.
- [How to add human approval to an AI agent](https://usenaive.ai/blogs/how-to-add-human-approval-to-an-ai-agent): Gate an AI agent's risky tool calls with an ask policy: the session pauses, a person approves it over a webhook, the dashboard or the CLI, and a USD budget caps spend regardless.
- [Hosted vs bring-your-own harness for AI agents](https://usenaive.ai/blogs/hosted-vs-bring-your-own-runtime-for-ai-agents): In Vetta the harness (the agent loop) is the layer you pick and the runtime is always managed. When to keep the default harness, when to bring your own, and what each choice does to cost per completed task.
- [Building AI agents into your SaaS: the multi-tenant playbook](https://usenaive.ai/blogs/building-ai-agents-into-your-saas): How to give every SaaS customer an isolated, governed agent: one organization per customer, a budgeted agent, allow/ask/deny policies, personas, a write-only vault, and webhooks back into your product.
- [Introducing Vault: write-only secrets your agent uses but never sees](https://usenaive.ai/blogs/introducing-vault): The Vault primitive stores API keys and tokens an agent needs but must never read. Values are sealed once, injected at the network boundary, and never returned by any route.
- [What is an autonomous company? A founder's guide](https://usenaive.ai/blogs/what-is-an-autonomous-company): An autonomous company is a repo: a naive.config.ts declaring the apps and the agent team, provisioned by naive up, run by a coordinator under per-agent budgets and approvals. Here is how one works.
- [LLC formation for AI agents: a real US company, KYC to EIN](https://usenaive.ai/blogs/introducing-formation): Form a real US LLC for an agent's identity. Verified founders go in, a company with an EIN comes out, and the entity becomes what the persona's domains, inboxes, numbers and cards attach to.
- [Introducing KYC: identity verification for your agent, done once](https://usenaive.ai/blogs/introducing-kyc): Verify the human behind an agent once, then let that identity hold domains, inboxes, phone numbers, cards and a company. Here is what verification unlocks, and what it never exposes to the agent.
- [Introducing Domains: DNS, email and apps for your agent's identity](https://usenaive.ai/blogs/introducing-domain): Every organization gets a working system domain at signup. Connect a domain you already own, verify it, and hang inboxes and apps off it through the Vetta API, SDK and CLI.
- [Top 10 platforms to build autonomous companies in 2026](https://usenaive.ai/blogs/top-10-platforms-autonomous-companies): An even-handed 2026 review of ten platforms people use to build autonomous, agent-run companies: app builders, agent frameworks, and company templates that deploy an agent team.
- [Naïve and Paperclip: attribution, MIT, and what we actually build](https://usenaive.ai/blogs/on-paperclip-and-open-source): How Naïve attributes the open-source software it builds on, why MIT-licensed code in a commercial product is the point of the license, and where the line sits between upstream code and the stack we built ourselves.
