About
Kindo is an enterprise AI platform for security and IT teams — AI agents that work across the tools those teams already run.
ApolloRise is Kindo's official partner. Since January 2026 we've been working as Kindo's extended team: two engineers and a tech lead, embedded in their processes, building the integrations that connect the platform to the DevSecOps stack.
The Challenge
An AI platform for security is only as useful as the tools it can reach. Every new integration means a different API, a different auth model and different data. And testing it properly means access to the real product — which security vendors don't hand out easily.
Kindo needed integrations shipped steadily and to a high bar, without pulling its core engineers away from the platform.
How We Work
Kindo calls us its extended team, and that's exactly how we operate. We're not an outside agency that takes tickets and disappears: we're plugged into Kindo's processes and own each task end to end — from working through the task to a full testing cycle and delivery.
We work to Kindo's KPIs. When we see something that could work better — in a spec, a process or the product — we say so and propose a fix. Minimal bureaucracy, maximum result, and regular syncs so nobody has to guess where things stand.
Team
How a Task Moves
Scoping
We work through every task with Kindo's team first: what the integration has to do, which data it touches and what "done" looks like.
Access
We negotiate with the tool's vendor to get test access. It's often the slowest part of a security integration — and one we take off Kindo's plate.
Build
The integration is built to Kindo's standards, with least-privilege scopes and careful handling of secrets and data.
Testing
A full testing cycle against the real product, before anything reaches Kindo's customers.
Delivery
Delivered into Kindo's release flow — and if we spot something worth improving along the way, it comes with a proposal.
What We Deliver
Integrations Across DevSecOps
A long and growing list of integrations across the DevSecOps stack: SIEM, EDR, vulnerability management, cloud security, CI/CD and code security, ticketing and identity. Each one lets Kindo's AI agents work with the tools security and IT teams use every day.
Test Access, Negotiated
You can't properly test an integration without the real product. We handle the conversations with vendors to get test access, so integrations are verified against the actual tool — not a guess at how its API behaves.
An Engineering Partner, Not a Contractor
Same processes, same KPIs, same standards as Kindo's own team. A tech lead who owns the quality of every delivery, and engineers who know where security APIs break — because they've built so many of them.
Results
Since January 2026 and ongoing. Integrations move from idea to delivery without Kindo having to manage them step by step, and its core team stays focused on the platform.
The partnership is also where our security integration expertise comes from: we know these tools, their APIs and their vendors — and we bring that to every AI platform and security team we work with.
