Root eliminates the CVE grind by delivering open source that is clean of vulnerabilities, secured by default, and ready to use without engineering effort. Powered by thousands of specialized AI agents, Root detects, patches, tests, and delivers fixed components across any stack in minutes, with full transparency and no forced upgrades or vendor-locked images. AppSec teams get instant remediation without waiting on developers. Engineers stay focused on building instead of patching. And organizations finally close exposure windows by moving security at AI speed. Root is creating the backbone of the agentic software supply chain, where open source arrives secure from the start.
