Overview
Dagger.io provides a programmable tool for automation in software development. It offers a modern API and a cross-language scripting engine that replaces manual scripts by letting developers encapsulate project tasks and workflows into reusable functions written in their language. These functions are packaged into a custom GraphQL API that can be run from the command line, a language interpreter, or a custom HTTP client. The product targets software development teams in DevOps and CI/CD, including large enterprises, to streamline automation across the software lifecycle. Dagger uses a subscription-based business model with tiered plans that scale from basic access to advanced features and dedicated support, aiming to serve both small teams and large organizations. The goal is to speed up, simplify, and customize automation for every company’s software factory, making DevOps workflows faster, more reliable, and easier to share through a community of reusable modules.
