The Authority Layer
In an era of distributed systems and autonomous deployments, reliability is no longer an individual responsibility—it is a systemic requirement. Mortar provides the governance layer that ensures every change is compatible, safe, and policy-compliant before it ever touches production.
To eliminate "probabilistic production"—where teams ship code and hope for the best. Mortar replaces guesswork with evidence-based authority, giving engineering leaders absolute certainty in their release cycles while allowing developers to move at maximum velocity.
Modern CI/CD pipelines check if code *works* (tests), but they rarely check if code *belongs*. In microservice environments, the gaps between services are where 80% of outages occur. Mortar seals those gaps by treating every API change as a contract that must be verified against the entire organizational graph.
Operating Principles
We don't believe in "best practices" that can't be enforced. Every decision Mortar makes is backed by a deterministic score derived from actual schema drift and consumer impact analysis.
Your source code is your intellectual property. Mortar's kernel is designed to analyze metadata and artifacts, not your implementation details, ensuring security by design.
A release gate should never be a "maybe." We provide binary outcomes (ALLOW/BLOCK) based on rigid, machine-readable policies that align with your business risk tolerance.
Mortar is being adopted by teams who value deterministic outcomes over chaotic rollouts.
