Kiro

Kiro

Kiro is an AI-powered integrated development environment (IDE) powered by AWS that creates a full-process experience from prototype to production for developers. It uses a spec-driven development model that automatically converts natural language prompts into detailed requirements, system designs, and specific tasks, and performs code generation, documentation maintenance, unit testing, and performance optimization through intelligent agents. Built-in agent hooks support event-driven automation (such as saving file triggers) and Steering files to give users custom control over AI behavior. Kiro natively integrates Model Context Protocol (MCP) to connect to multiple tools and services (e.g., databases, documents, APIs), and is compatible with VS Code plugins and settings, supporting multimodal inputs such as image indication UI or architectural logic. Currently in preview, the core features are open for free, and tiered subscriptions are available for professional users.
