PolyAI launches Agent Development Kit to bring AI-native development to enterprise CX

Published

A new developer-first approach gives teams full control over building and continuously improving AI agents

NEW YORK, April 22, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — PolyAI today announced the launch of its Agent Development Kit (ADK), a new way for teams to build, deploy, and improve agentic AI for customer experience.

The ADK introduces an AI-native development model that brings coding assistants into the core of how agents for customer service are built. Rather than relying on static configurations or manual implementation, teams can generate, test, and evolve agents using the latest generation of coding assistants and development practices.

Built for how developers actually work
With PolyAI’s ADK, developer teams can now:

Work in their own environment with full control, using their preferred programming language and IDE with complete visibility into the codebaseUse AI coding assistants to accelerate development, integrating tools like Cursor or Claude Code to generate and refine production-grade logicBuild from any input in minutes, including diagrams, spreadsheets, and APIsManage agents like enterprise software, with version control, code reviews, and collaborative workflows

“Most AI platforms for CX force developers to work inside a UI, cut off from the way real software gets built,” said Shawn Wen, co-founder and CTO at PolyAI. “With the ADK, we’re changing that. Developers can now build AI agents with the same tools, workflows, and flexibility they use to build any other critical system.”

From weeks of development to hours
The ADK delivers a step-change in development speed and productivity for PolyAI’s enterprise customers: Enterprise customers using PolyAI’s ADK have achieved:

One of the world’s largest utility companies built complex flows in hours, compared to multiple weeks previouslyOne of the UK’s largest banks processed hundreds of FAQs in minutes, instead of hours of manual work

By building directly against PolyAI’s platform and codebase, developers can also reuse proven production patterns for integrations, logic, and behavior instead of starting from scratch. These patterns are informed by over 500,000 hours of real-world deployment work, built on PolyAI’s years of experience building and optimizing agents for the world’s most trusted enterprises.

“On top of our customers’ success with the ADK, we’re also seeing major impact internally. More than 60% of our engineering work at PolyAI is now done autonomously through ADK-powered workflows, with developers reviewing and guiding the output,” Wen added. “Now, we’re making that same capability available to our customers so more teams can build high-quality AI systems faster.”

Self-improving systems that learn from every interaction
Beyond initial development, PolyAI’s ADK enables self-learning loops.

By connecting to monitoring tools and automated QA pipelines, AI agents can identify performance gaps and continuously self-improve.

This represents a major shift in how agents for CX are built: from static automation to systems that continuously learn and adapt without ongoing manual effort.

A new standard for building enterprise-grade AI
While most CX AI vendors require developers to work inside closed systems with little or no code access, version control, or integration with modern development tools, PolyAI’s ADK takes a fundamentally different approach that reflects how serious engineering organizations actually build.

Combined with the no-code and low-code capabilities already available in the company’s core Agent Studio platform, PolyAI is the only enterprise AI for CX solution that meets technical and non-technical users where they are.

PolyAI’s Agent Development Kit is now generally available. Visit our developer site to get started.

About PolyAI
PolyAI is transforming customer experience with AI agents that help enterprises show up as the best versions of themselves in every conversation. We are trusted by global leaders including Marriott, Caesars Entertainment, PG&E, and UniCredit to handle their most complex customer interactions. Our agents deliver human-level understanding with enterprise-grade reliability, and many of our largest deployments already do the work of 1,000+ full-time employees.

Krelva Accepted Into the HBS Foundry Bootcamp at Harvard Business School

Published

on

By

Foster Britton spent four years learning to trade. Jerry Klamm grew a website to $100,000 a month in high school. Their bootstrapped, pre-launch company, Krelva, joins the new program in October and opens Krelva Meet, small live rooms where day traders trade the market together at their respective skill levels.

BUFFALO, N.Y., Sept. 12, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Krelva, a bootstrapped, pre-launch Buffalo company built for futures day traders, has been accepted into the HBS Foundry Bootcamp at Harvard Business School, a new online program for founders working toward their first check. Foster Britton started trading in 10th grade, at 15, before settling on futures trading. Jerry Klamm, 19, built Geometry Spot at 16, grew it to more than 175 million pageviews and $100,000 a month in revenue before he finished high school, and left the University at Buffalo to run Krelva full time.

“Krelva Meet is the room I wish I had at 15.” Foster Britton, co-founder, Krelva

Krelva exists because of how hard Britton’s first four years were. Trading is highly complex, the internet is full of people teaching it, and most of what a beginner finds is confusing, contradictory, or sold by someone with something to sell. The question is never whether there is enough information. It is where to start and who to listen to.

“I started trading in 10th grade, in forex before anything else, and it took me four years to get it right,” Britton said. “It was not that the charts were hard. It was that there is so much online, most of it is confusing, and there is no way to know where to start or who to listen to.”

Today Krelva has two things. The first is a free beginner course that shows people where to start; it teaches the basics without promising anyone a payday. The second is Krelva Meet, which opens in October at $50 a month with a 14-day free trial: a new way to trade Nasdaq-100 and S&P 500 futures, not alone and not in a crowd of strangers, but in a small live room with people at your own verified level.

Krelva Meet started with a frustration anyone who has spent time in a trading Discord will recognize. People post their results, and some of those results are real. Screenshots are easy to fake, a few prop firms now issue verified payout cards, and none of it tells a beginner whether the person answering their question is actually where they say they are. So the beginner guesses, and the loudest voice usually wins.

Krelva Meet checks. Every trader has a level that Krelva verifies before they enter a room, and the company is building direct brokerage verification so the check happens automatically. Rooms are built from traders at the same level. Someone who has never passed a prop firm evaluation sits with others who have not either. Pass one, and you move up to rooms with traders who have passed. Get paid out, and you move up again. Alongside the rooms, Krelva is launching a rating: simple, earned over time, and moved by how you answer questions during the session rather than by what you claim. Rooms are not a signal service and tell no one what to buy or sell. They are about the process: reading the market before the open, talking it through with people at your level, and finding out afterward where and why you were right or wrong.

Krelva does not claim to make anyone a better trader faster. It is trying to give people a place to start.

“Krelva Meet is the room I wish I had at 15,” Britton said.

The HBS Foundry Bootcamp at Harvard Business School has drawn attention since its launch for its $699 price and its format, which from Krelva’s understanding pairs weekly live sessions with HBS faculty and guests with AI versions of those same professors, built to push back on weak ideas.

“I’m interested in this new program at Harvard Business School. I think using AI tools to learn is the future, but I’m curious to see how Harvard does it and if it actually works,” Klamm said. “I like that it says the AI professors are built to challenge weak ideas, so I’m going to push it to the limit and see how it performs compared to a real professor.”

The waitlist for Krelva Meet is open now at https://krelva.com.

“Most traders look at the chart at 9:30 every morning by themselves. There are thousands of other traders just like you,” Klamm said. “Why would you trade alone if you could trade with a group you trust? That is the whole idea.”

About Krelva

Krelva is a Buffalo, New York company built for futures day traders. Its free beginner course, built by co-founder Foster Britton, teaches the basics of trading. Its paid product, Krelva Meet, puts traders in small live rooms with other traders at the same verified level to trade Nasdaq-100 and S&P 500 futures together, for $50 a month with a 14-day free trial. Krelva was founded in 2026 by Jerry Klamm and Foster Britton. Learn more at https://krelva.com.
