# Kiro

Kiro is an agentic development environment from Amazon Web Services that turns prompts into requirements, designs and sequenced tasks, then implements them with parallel agents. It uses property-based tests to check behavior across many inputs, not just a few examples. It runs as an IDE, a CLI, a web interface and cloud sessions, and offers Anthropic, OpenAI and open-weight models under credit-based pricing.
