Grounded generation
Every test artefact traces back to a source document. No hallucinated test cases.
Solutions
The accelerators inside every ASTRA engagement.
QA, Forge, and Gate are not licensed software. They are the proprietary IP that ASTRA Forward Deployed Engineers deploy inside enterprise engagements — compressing time-to-production from quarters to weeks.
How they fit
Three accelerators.
One engagement arc.
Every ASTRA engagement runs through four stages — Diagnose, Roadmap, Pilot, Scale. The three accelerators activate at different points, deployed by Forward Deployed Engineers who stay embedded across the whole arc.
- 01DIAGNOSE
Map the workflow. Identify the high-leverage agentic use case. One-page diagnostic.
- 02ROADMAP
Sequence the operating model. Architect the agent. Decide what gets built first.
- 03PILOT
Live agentic delivery in production. Real users, real data, real outcomes.
- 04SCALE
Productionise across the organisation. Hand off to operations. Continuous calibration.
You don't license these accelerators. They're deployed by an FDE inside your engagement.

Agentic Test Automation · Powered by AIFT
Agentic QA that decouples testing volume from headcount.
Understand. Design. Execute. Three stages, every output reviewable, every step backed by evidence. Deployed inside ASTRA FDE engagements — your team doesn't license it, doesn't operate it, benefits from it.
- 01
Understand
Ingests requirements, design docs, change tickets — and the system's own source code — and produces a structured map of what to test and the risk shape behind it.
- 02
Design
Converts the map into a reviewable test plan and detailed, executable test cases — scoped, sequenced, with expected outcomes and edge cases — anchored back to the source.
- 03
Execute
LLM-vision-assisted reasoning drives the application — modern web or legacy Windows-style UI alike — captures structured evidence, and validates outcomes against business rules.
Capabilities
Bounded autonomy
Reviewer gates at every stage. The platform never executes without human approval.
Self-healing execution
Vision-assisted reasoning adapts to UI changes. Brittle locator scripts are eliminated.
Evidence-first
Screenshots, logs, validation outcomes — the audit trail is part of the deliverable.
Outcomes
From days to hours. QA effort moves from drafting and clicking toward judgment and exception handling.
Why ASTRA QA is agentic — grounded, bounded, self-healing — and what that means for testing AI-era features that traditional automation has no answer for.
ASTRA Forge
AI-Readiness · Enterprise Knowledge Platform
AI is only as good as the knowledge it learns from.
Ingest. Curate. Structure. Ground. Govern. Deployed inside ASTRA FDE engagements with security and compliance fulfilled by design — not licensed, not operated by your team, used by every agent we ship.
- 01
Ingest
Connects to SharePoint, Confluence, network shares, ticketing, CRMs, knowledge bases. Handles PDFs, Word, slides, structured data, audio transcripts.
- 02
Curate
Deduplicates, version-resolves, removes stale content. Classifies sensitive data. Routes confidential material through approved-access paths only.
- 03
Structure
Extracts entities, relationships, ontologies. Builds knowledge graphs where domain shape matters. Decomposes long documents into retrievable units with preserved context.
- 04
Ground
Produces high-quality, retrieval-ready knowledge — vector indexes, knowledge graphs, decision rule sets, structured SOPs. Every artefact traces back to its source.
- 05
Govern
Enforces access policy, retention, residency. Every retrieval is logged. Every artefact carries its provenance. Compliance-grade audit trails by default.
Capabilities
Enterprise-scale ingestion
Built to process knowledge at organisation scale — not a desktop RAG tool.
Security & compliance built in
Identity, access control, audit, residency, encryption — not bolted on.
Structured, not just embedded
Beyond vector retrieval — entities, relationships, and decision rules.
Reusable
One investment in AI-readiness; many agents and applications consume it.
Outcomes
Stop building per-project data pipelines. Build one ground truth that every agent uses.
Why ASTRA Forge is a KAG-class platform (Knowledge-Augmented Generation, not RAG-only), and what that means for agentic AI in regulated, multi-hop reasoning domains.
ASTRA Gate
Enterprise Control Plane · Policy · Audit · Identity · Token · Model
Run agents at enterprise scale without losing control.
The agent layer needs the same discipline as the rest of the enterprise stack. ASTRA Gate is how an FDE gives it that discipline — deployed inside the engagement, not handed over as another platform to operate.
- 01
Policy & guardrails
Declarative rules that bound what agents can do, what data they can touch, what they can say back. Enforced at request time, not after the fact.
- 02
Audit & compliance trails
Every prompt, every response, every tool call, every retrieval — logged with full lineage. The audit trail compliance has been asking for.
- 03
Identity & access
Agents inherit user identity through SSO. RBAC at the agent layer. No more shared service accounts.
- 04
Token routing & cost guardrails
Every call routed to the right model for the job. Per-team / per-use-case spend caps. Real-time cost visibility.
- 05
Model selection & multi-model
Vendor-neutral orchestration across hosted and self-hosted models. Model decisions are configuration, not code.
Capabilities
One layer, not five point solutions
Unified control plane — identity, policy, audit, token, model — in one place.
Enforced at request time
Pre-flight, not post-mortem.
Vendor-neutral
Switch models without rewriting agents.
Cost, visible and bounded
Token spend attributable to its actual purpose, not a mystery line on the AWS bill.
Outcomes
Stop re-implementing identity, logging, and policy in every agent.
Why ASTRA Gate is the enterprise control plane — five surfaces, request-time enforcement, and what that means for the audit, cost, and multi-model stories your governance owners are already asking about.
Together
Three accelerators. One embedded FDE team.
Sold separately. Composed together. A typical enablement engagement sequences them: Forge makes knowledge ready, QA validates each release, Gate keeps the running system inside policy and within budget.
