About Akuity

Akuity was founded by Argo co‑founders Hong Wang, Jesse Suen, and Alexander Matyushentsev. They previously built Applatix, which open‑sourced the Argo project in 2017 and was acquired by Intuit in 2018. Argo CD later became a CNCF incubating project and graduated in 2022.

Akuity provides enterprise‑grade Argo implementation, support, and the Akuity Platform for configuring and managing Argo CD.
