Show HN: A cloud harness for long autonomous work

Bourne, a new cloud harness for long autonomous AI work, enables companies to build, deploy, evaluate, and collaborate with self-improving agents that can work for days, remember everything, and deploy themselves. The platform inverts the human-agent relationship by prompting users when needed and supports running teams of 100,000 agents with governance.

One cloud workspace to build, deploy, evaluate, and collaborate with self-improving agents. Built for the most ambitious problems.

Agentic AI has failed to move past “summarize my meeting and update the project tracker” in most deployments. If that resonates, it’s not just you. Making agents productive in messy, complex lines of work requires a completely different set of tools.

Meet Bourne. Onboards the customer. #

Bourne works for days.

Real work does not fit in a chat session. Bourne stays on a problem through the night and through next week until it’s solved.

Bourne remembers, everything.

It retains and retrieves valuable memory about you, your company, and all business entities you interact with, which increases the accuracy and speed of work.

Bourne deploys and improves itself.

Talk to it about the business outcomes you want, watch it build itself, run itself, and reflect on its own work to get better.

Bourne is consistent.

When it learns a repeatable procedure, the procedure runs deterministically and quickly, by turning your prompts into precise software.

Bourne prompts you.

We inverted the relationship between human and agent. Bourne works on its own, and proactively comes to you for questions and approvals if needed.

Bourne connects to everything.

Your company’s reality lives in disparate systems, which Bourne learns to efficiently query and use.

Bourne is governed.

Run a team of 100,000 on a single flexible harness without security or cost concerns.
