We're building the place where your product lives.

Where we started

We started in September 2025 building a mobile AI IDE for iOS. The idea was simple: let developers write code on their phone with AI assistance. We shipped it, got our first users, and listened.

The answer was simple: nobody wants to code on a small screen. We needed to rethink.

We went back to our own experience. A year earlier, Alemzhan and Ilyas were building their first startup together — with no coding background. Lovable was too limited. Cursor was too complex. They had to figure out deployments from scratch, and eventually had no choice but to learn to code themselves.

That gap — between "I have an idea" and "I have a working, deployed product" — is exactly what Strayl is built to close.

What we built instead

By February 2026 we had rebuilt everything from scratch: git hosting, deployment infrastructure, database provisioning, and authentication — all native, all owned by us.

We didn't wrap an existing platform. We built the repository and deployment runtime ourselves — because that's the only way to give AI agents the full context they need to work safely, without ever touching your live app.

Where we're from

We're two 18-year-old founders building out of Kazakhstan. We're not backed by a prestigious accelerator or a famous university. We're just two people who decided to build something real — and shipped it.

What we believe

Staging should be the default, not a feature you configure. Your live app should be untouchable until you decide it's ready. And the AI agent should have its own computer — not a sandboxed tab.

Developers and vibe coders deserve better DX than "connect these five services together and hope they talk to each other." Git, deployments, databases, auth — these should be native and work out of the box. A platform that owns the full stack can give you a fundamentally better experience than one that just glues connectors together.

And honestly — GitHub's UI is outdated and frustrating. The way developers interact with their code deserves a serious rethink for the AI era.
