# Harness

A DevOps platform selling AI-powered CI/CD, testing, security, and cost-optimization tools to engineering teams.

**Route:** surfaced by the Web Application and Frontend Hosting Platform lane's de-branded queries → substitute to vercel.com.

**Why it's on the map:** A buyer evaluating Vercel's deployment and developer tooling could use Harness's CI/CD and GitOps automation instead, achieving the same job of shipping code with a different, pipeline-first approach.

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

> Harness delivers intelligent AI automation, so your team ships code faster, safer, and smarter.

**Edges:**

- discusses [[x-com]]
- competitor [[launchdarkly-com]]
