GitOps done right
Integrate pipelines with Argo CD and centralize visibility across clusters.
Centralize and simplify GitOps secrets management.
Harness Pipelines allow you to quickly integrate
build/test/verify with GitOps
Fully automate the path to production: Easily create pull requests, sync applications, update application config, and trigger rollbacks from the pipeline
AI Verification & Rollback
Verify deployment success
AI analyzes Logging and APM telemetry to track the health of your deployments. Works with 12+ tools
Automatic configuration
Choose your own metrics & queries, or let Harness AI work it out with your observability tooling automatically.
Rollback or Notify
Stay in control. Trigger rollbacks automatically or contact an engineer to take a look at clear data.
Release Orchestration:
The Pipeline for Your Pipelines
End-to-End Visibility
Visual process flows with a shared calendar centralize all activities and eliminate surprises.
Automated & Standardized Workflows
Enforce best practices with reusable blueprints and embedded approvals. Generate release plans from documents with AI.
Effortless Compliance & Governance
Simplify audits with a complete, immutable history of every release.
Build powerful pipelines
Visual and code editor
Harness provides elegant drag-and-drop and developer friendly as-code experiences. Toggle between them as you like.
Once you have a great pipeline, save it as a template to allow versioned, parameterized reuse. You don’t have to repeat yourself.
Advanced controls
Synchronize key events across services using Barriers to ensure the database is up before service is rolled out.
Leverage looping or matrix actions to hit every combination.
Workflow integration
Harness integrates with ticketing systems to automatically raise tickets for approval and proceed when they’re approved.
Customize what happens when an approval is waiting too long or approvals for similar deployments stack up.
Guardrail your deployments
Flexible policies using Open Policy Agent
Give developers permission to edit pipelines and environments while central teams dictate rules like, “All production deployments must have an approval step”. With OPA, teams can be empowered while scalable guardrails ensure compliance.
Deployment freeze
Want to prevent deployments during sensitive times? Deployment freezes allow you to block deployments of specified services and environments for a specific window of time.
Enterprise grade role-based access control
Fine grained Role-Based Access Control defines who can access your resources and what actions they can perform.
Audit trails
Harness provides clear and easily accessible audit trails so you know who made a change. With better visibility, you can meet your compliance requirements.
Template library for standardization
Provide users with a process template to follow your enterprise standards and reduce configuration effort.

Visualize your
DevOps data
Harness dashboard provide visibility into your continuous delivery performance. Out of the box overview dashboards provide DORA metrics known to predict high performance in technology teams. Service-level dashboards detail what’s where, and bring recent deployments to your fingertips.
For those that want to customize, our Looker powered custom dashboards make it easy to craft custom dashboards and automate sending them to interested parties on a schedule or a conditional alert.
More integrations, less scripting
Trusted by DevOps and Developers
Hundreds of DevOps and engineering teams are powered by Harness to become elite performers in velocity, quality, efficiency, and governance.

United
Harness gave us a lot of best practices right out of the box with reusable templates so developers don’t need to perform any guesswork to determine how the best pipeline should be built.
Skillsoft
We barely had to train anyone on Harness. There’s a big green flag for successful deployments, and if something goes wrong, they can just read the Harness log.

Ulta Beauty
Time-to-market for our eCommerce platform was a huge benefit of Harness. We saved months of time. Months. Harness really came through in a big way for that project.
UWM
In a past position I tried to set up a simple-to-use integration in Jenkins and it took months. We needed a tool that would take minutes.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a software delivery platform?
A software delivery platform is an end-to-end solution that unifies all the tools and processes needed to build, test, secure, and deploy software. Harness CD is the anchor of this platform, integrating seamlessly with CI, security testing (STO), and cost management. It provides a single, cohesive experience to eliminate toolchain chaos and move from code to production with speed and safety.
How does Harness handle complex deployments, like database delivery (DB DevOps)?
Harness is designed to manage any app and any architecture, including complex, stateful services. You can easily orchestrate database deployments as a stage within your pipeline, ensuring schema migrations run in the correct order relative to your application. This allows you to verify and, if needed, automatically roll back both the application and the database change, all from a single, unified platform.
What does AI-powered Continuous Delivery actually mean?
AI-powered Continuous Delivery means moving beyond basic automation. Harness’s context-aware AI acts as an expert partner to:
- Generate pipelines: Use the AI DevOps Agent to create production-ready continuous deployment pipelines from natural language. You should be able to ask, “Create a deployment pipeline targeting AKS with my team’s normal testing and scanning tools.”
- Verify deployments: As you roll out a deployment, automatically analyze observability data in real-time to detect anomalies and verify release health.
Explain failed steps: Instead of you digging through logs, the AI should explain failed steps to you.
Do I need a separate Continuous Delivery (CD) tool if my CI tool has deployment features?
Yes, you will need a separate Continuous Delivery (CD) tool even if your CI tool has deployment features. CI tools are not built for the complexities of enterprise deployment. Using them for CD results in brittle, hard-to-maintain scripts, slow rollouts, and risky manual rollbacks turning your delivery process into a bottleneck.
A purpose-built software delivery platform like Harness is designed specifically for deployment. It provides a context-aware AI partner, script-free management of any architecture (Kubernetes, VMs, etc.), and intelligent safety features, such as automated rollbacks, that CI tools simply don't offer.
What is GitOps and how does Harness work with Argo CD?
GitOps is a methodology that uses Git as the single source of truth for declarative infrastructure and application deployment. While a GitOps tool like Argo CD is good for managing cluster state, enterprises often struggle with "Argo sprawl" - hundreds of unmanageable instances with no centralized governance or visibility.
Harness acts as an Enterprise Control Plane for GitOps. It enhances your existing investment in tools like Argo CD by providing centralized visibility, powerful promotion orchestration, and AI-powered release verification for all your deployments.
What is the difference between Continuous Integration (CI) and Continuous Delivery (CD)?
Continuous Integration (CI) is the practice of automating the building and testing of code every time a developer commits a change.
Continuous Delivery (CD) is the separate, more complex practice of automatically preparing and reliably releasing that tested code to through test environments and into production rapidly and safely. Harness provides distinct Continuous Integration and CD capabilities. They work together or you can leverage Harness CD from where your existing CI tool leaves off.
