Kilo launches an enterprise-focused AI coding platform

Kilo has introduced Kilo for Enterprise, positioned as an enterprise-grade AI coding platform that emphasizes governance, transparency, and control. The announcement frames the product as a response to widespread Bring Your Own AI (BYOAI) practices in engineering organizations, citing research and reporting that developers are already adopting external models and tools to boost productivity.

BYOAI and why governance matters

Several recent reports indicate that developers are increasingly using external AI tools—often through personal accounts or unmanaged integrations—to speed up development workflows. The product positions itself as a solution to the risks associated with unmanaged adoption, addressing potential concerns around code security and regulatory compliance.

What Kilo for Enterprise provides

Kilo for Enterprise is a platform aiming to centralize AI coding in organizations. Key technical and governance features called out include:

  • Model and provider flexibility: Admins can restrict which models and providers are available from a broad catalog — including links to an external models listing — and can bring their own keys for frontier providers via Bedrock or Vertex, as well as use self-hosted models.
  • Auditability and visibility: Complete audit logs and AI usage metrics broken down by user and model are highlighted as central to governance and optimization.
  • Security and compliance features: The platform offers SCIM provisioning, SSO/OIDC authentication, a SOC 2 compliance–ready architecture, and claims of real SLAs and dedicated support channels.

The announcement frames these capabilities as tools not only for compliance teams and CISOs but also for CTOs and engineering leaders seeking to enable developers while retaining control.

Pricing and availability

Kilo for Enterprise is stated to be available today. The published price is $299/user/month. A link to schedule a demo is included in the original announcement.

Context and positioning

The product emphasizes avoiding inference markup and charges by seat instead of token-based subscriptions, and positions itself as an alternative to solutions characterized as “black boxes.” The messaging centers on balancing developer productivity gains with enterprise-grade governance and auditability.
