I've been using Talos Linux for Kubernetes, and I'll never look back
Platform teams today are struggling with the immense complexity of their cloud estates. Despite using modern IaC tools, they are constantly fighting a losing battle against infrastructure drift, undocumented changes, and the operational messiness that comes from using various tools and sources of truth.

That's where formae comes in. It's an IaC (Infrastructure-as-Code) platform that unifies your live environment into a single, versioned system of record, giving you the power to safely manage and evolve it with code.

What makes formae different is that it's the only platform that accepts reality, constantly and automatically discovering and codifying your entire environment into a single source of truth. This is what provides the ultimate benefit: the confidence to manage and evolve your infrastructure safely, without the messiness and toil of the past.
