About the Company

At Straion, we’re building the future of how software gets built — by making AI coding agents truly understand your company. 🚀

Our platform enables engineering organizations to validate their internal rules, functional and non-functional requirements, and architecture guidelines across the entire software development lifecycle (SDLC). From design documents to pull requests, Straion ensures that your specs are followed, your AI agents consume fewer tokens, and your teams produce consistent, high-quality code — every time.

We believe this is how spec-driven development finally scales inside large enterprises — with AI assisting, not replacing, human expertise.

Our Mission

To empower engineering teams and coding agents to collaborate through context, not chaos — bridging the gap between human intent and machine execution.

We’re reimagining software development to be faster, smarter, and more compliant — turning documentation, decisions, and rules into living systems that power intelligent automation.
