# Solo.io

A platform offering cloud-native connectivity and AI agent infrastructure built on Istio and Envoy, sold to teams building and scaling intelligent systems in Kubernetes.

**Route:** surfaced by the AI Development and Deployment Infrastructure lane's de-branded queries → competitor to vercel.com.

**Why it's on the map:** Sells the same cloud and AI infrastructure capability—secure API connectivity and agentic workloads on Kubernetes—to the same frontend, platform, and AI developers who shortlist Vercel for building, deploying, and scaling web and AI applications.

**Receipts** (verbatim from its page this run):

> Solo is the unified platform for secure, seamless cloud operations — built to power the next generation of intelligent AI agents

> Build, manage, and scale intelligent agents securely and natively in Kubernetes

> Secure, observe, and scale any API or workload - with cloud-native connectivity built for modern, distributed systems
