Getting Started

Everything you need to build, deploy, and manage production-grade AI agents with Meridian.

Introduction to Meridian

Meridian is the infrastructure platform for building, deploying, and managing production-grade autonomous AI agents. Whether you're building a code review bot, a customer support agent, or a complex multi-agent workflow, Meridian provides the tools and runtime to ship with confidence.

Why Meridian?

Building AI agents that work in demos is easy. Building AI agents that work in production — reliably, safely, and at scale — is a completely different challenge. Meridian bridges that gap.

Production-First

Built for reliability from day one. Automatic retries, graceful degradation, and circuit breakers are baked into the runtime.

Observable

Every agent decision, tool call, and state transition is traced and logged. Debug production issues in seconds, not hours.

Secure by Default

Role-based access, sandboxed execution, and audit logs come standard. Meet SOC 2 and HIPAA requirements out of the box.

Framework Agnostic

Bring your own LLM provider — OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, or self-hosted. Meridian is the orchestration layer, not the model layer.

How It Works

Meridian follows a simple mental model: you define Agents that have access to Tools, are constrained by Guardrails, and retain context through Memory. The Meridian runtime handles everything else — scheduling, scaling, monitoring, and recovery.
