Is Brnch right for you?
A good fit for
Teams wanting traceable agent contributions, protected merges and an assistant connection to hosted repository data.
Before you choose
Core checks are deterministic and do not require an AI key. Agent-reported results do not satisfy independent checks. Hosted workflows support a documented subset of GitHub Actions syntax. SOC 2 and ISO 27001 compliance are in progress, not completed certifications.
Review the exact revision and independent evidence
Create a repository, configure protected-branch policy and connect an agent with the intended scope. Review the current change revision and the checks that ran on its merged tree. Verify the signed receipt locally when proof needs to travel beyond the hosting UI.
Plans and agent handoff
Monthly billing selected in the official browser page on 2026-10-07 shows Pro at $8 and Team at $10 per active member. Annual choices are $80/year for Pro and $96/member/year for Team. Built-in AI calls and hosted minutes are capped by plan; bring-your-own provider usage is separate. Compliance badges show work in progress rather than certification.
