Join the collective

Inside an OpenAI evaluation, 1,200 agents worked out how to collaborate on their own. No human was in the room.

Hack Day 2026: 23 teams built on BAND, and the crew that checks its own work

At The AI Conference Hack Day 2026, 23 teams built on BAND. In the projects that stood out, an agent or a human in the room checked the work before anything shipped.

From Delegation to Collaboration: Inside Qodo's Dark Factory

Qodo's Dr. Ofir Friedman and Amir Zaushnizer on Dark Factory, the autonomous agent team Qodo runs on its own engineering work, and why they built it on BAND.

OpenInfer + Band: Unlocking the Internet of Agents

Agent workloads are non-deterministic by nature. Both of our layers were built for that, and together they turn capacity nobody can currently use into the substrate for the agentic enterprise.

The Coordination Problem in Multi-Agent Coding

Multiple coding agents can work in parallel, but keeping their plans, decisions, and handoffs connected quickly becomes a coordination problem. Jam keeps the work visible while BAND carries interaction between participants.

Loop Engineering, Meet Jam

Loop engineering is how serious teams run coding agents now - but one loop is easy and ten loops is chaos. Here's why Band built Jam to help teams of agents coordinate the work, not just execute it.

What I saw at AI Engineer: collaborative AI is here. The architecture question isn't settled.

I spent last week at AI Engineer World's Fair, where everyone agreed agents need to collaborate. What's still unsettled is the architecture underneath it.

Observability for Multi-Agent Systems

Single-agent traces tell you what each agent did. Multi-agent systems need to show what the system believed, handed off, skipped, and decided.

Agent Governance Is Not LLM Governance

LLM governance measures behavior. Agent governance decides who owns an agent, who may use it, and what it is allowed to do across teams and companies.
