Code isn't the bottleneck. Coordination is.

What Korey is

Korey is an AI agent that orchestrates project context across the tools software teams already use: Slack, GitHub, Shortcut, docs, and more. It writes specs from rough conversations, keeps stories and tickets current as work progresses, and flags the blockers and risks that would otherwise hide in a stand-up.

The goal is simple: keep humans focused on the work that requires judgment, and let an AI handle the coordination tax.

Built by Shortcut Software

Korey is made by Shortcut Software, the company behind the Shortcut project management platform (formerly Clubhouse). Shortcut has spent over a decade building tools that thousands of engineering and product teams use every day to plan and ship software.

Korey isn't a thin LLM wrapper bolted onto a new domain. It's built by people who have spent ten years watching how engineering teams work, what slows them down, and what's worth automating.

Why we built it

AI tools have made the act of writing code faster. But the work around the code hasn't gotten any easier. Teams still spend just as much time aligning on what to build, keeping plans current, communicating progress, and handing off context. In many cases that coordination overhead has gotten worse, not better, as code gets faster to write.

We built Korey because the new bottleneck for software teams isn't typing. It's keeping engineers, PMs, and leadership looking at the same picture of the work as it changes minute to minute.

How we think about safety

Korey is SOC 2 Type II certified, operates with Zero Data Retention, and never trains models on customer data. Every interaction passes through safeguards designed to detect prompt injection and other LLM-specific threats.
