BlueRock launches builder programme to help enterprises deploy AI across non-engineering teams

BlueRock, an agentic operations company, has launched BlueRock for Builders, a programme designed to help enterprises accelerate AI development across departments. The initiative combines guided learning, starter kits, and production-ready AI building blocks to support "citizen developers" beyond traditional engineering teams. The programme integrates with existing AI coding assistant tools and provides secure cloud development environments. It includes a builder-focused curriculum with hands-on labs and free platform access, allowing employees in marketing, operations, and sales to build AI applications safely. "In today's world, everyone is a developer," said Harold Byun, BlueRock's CEO. The company aims to help organisations establish consistent development practices whilst managing operational risk. BlueRock is backed by Mayfield, Wing Ventures, and the Aziz Family Office.

BlueRock unveils NOVA Microhypervisor with AMD DMA isolation for secure AI infrastructure

BlueRock has released an updated version of its NOVA Microhypervisor with DMA remapping support for AMD platforms featuring IOMMU hardware virtualisation. The open-source technology strengthens hardware-level isolation across workloads, devices and memory in shared AI execution environments. NOVA is designed to address growing AI infrastructure demands through trusted isolation, supporting fully isolated virtual machines with up to 256TB of physical memory and 128 petabytes of virtual address space per workload. The new capabilities prevent hardware devices from accessing neighbouring workloads' memory and enforce fine-grained access controls at the hardware layer. The system aims to help organisations transition AI from experimental workloads to production infrastructure whilst managing rising inference costs and infrastructure strain. Released under GPLv2 licence, NOVA is available on GitHub.

BlueRock open sources Python tool for real-time MCP server visibility without code changes

BlueRock has open-sourced BlueRock MCP Python Hooks, a lightweight runtime observability tool for Python-based Model Context Protocol servers. The tool captures MCP server activity by inspecting the protocol, providing real-time visibility without requiring code changes or external dependencies. The tool offers MCP lifecycle visibility, runtime signals including subprocess activity, import and dependency tracking, and structured event output in JSON/NDJSON formats. Developers can begin capturing events in minutes using a simple runtime command. Released under the Apache 2.0 licence, BlueRock MCP Python Hooks addresses the growing need for visibility into MCP systems as adoption accelerates. The tool enables teams to understand tool execution, debug issues and integrate with existing observability stacks including OpenTelemetry and Grafana. The project is available on GitHub.

BlueRock launches Trust Context Engine to help developers deploy agentic AI systems faster

BlueRock has launched its Trust Context Engine, a new context layer for agentic AI systems that helps development teams deploy agents into production with greater confidence. The San Francisco-based company's engine classifies each action an agent executes, enriching execution paths with structured context including component metadata, trust signals and runtime behaviour. The engine is powered by the MCP Trust Registry and runtime sensors, providing visibility into how agents interact with tools and MCP servers. Teams can use trust context signals to inform automation, approvals and policy decisions across development and production workflows. BlueRock enables developers to build agents connected to trusted MCP servers whilst giving security teams the ability to define boundaries and prioritise risks. The platform is now available, with demonstrations scheduled for the MCP Dev Summit in New York on 2-3 April 2026.
