AWS launches Kiro Crew, an autonomous agentic orchestrator for 24/7 code development

Amazon Web Services Inc. today launched Kiro Crew, an autonomous workspace that keeps artificial intelligence coding agents running all day and all night.

The company said it developed Crew to allow developers to start a task, walk away and come back when something is worth administering. It tasks multiple agents and their sub-agents on a multi-step task so developers can let them run unattended. It can also manage recurring jobs that run on a schedule, and a heartbeat monitors the system until something needs to be reviewed.

The software also provides Apps, an interface that allows developers to bring their own tooling, giving individual processes their own purpose-built UI and structure. An App can combine a custom user interface with agents, skills, schedules and backend services.

The new solution is built on Kiro, expanding on the same agent infrastructure of the software’s autonomous mode.
