In the software industry, entrepreneurs have to go through 4 phases of innovation to build a product:

Idea: What change are they trying to make?

Design: How will their users interface with their product and services?

App: Build the core software using LLMs, and other building blocks

Product: Build the distribution engine to distribute their App to rest of the world

For the last mile to go from (Agentic) App to Product, organizations have to build multiple software distribution channels. The Control Plane is nothing but an Operating system for those software distribution channels.

In our previous post on BYOA/BYOC, we discussed different approaches to SaaS distribution and specifically discussed BYOA/BYOC model in detail.

However, many of our BYOA/BYOC customers have the need to distribute their software on-premises, who are looking to retain full control and get assistance on an as-needed basis. Introducing OnPrem CoPilot, a way for your support team to automate their OnPrem operations.

Like BYOA/BYOC, you deploy your application in the customers' account. Unlike BYOA though, your customers will retain the full control and whenever they need help — whether it’s for initial installation, software upgrades, security patches, infrastructure updates, troubleshooting support, etc.— they can connect securely and get help for specific operation(s). Once done, they can continue to have full control and continue to operate independently.
