⚡️ The 2026 Software Factory Infra Stack — Zach Lloyd, Warp.dev

Zach Lloyd, founder and CEO of Warp, explains how software factories turn tasks into pull requests, measure cost, throughput, and quality through centralized agent traces and scorers, and improve themselves through benchmarks and self-improvement agents. He reports cutting Warp's cost per PR from about $80 to $15–20 while raising throughput, and argues that the factory should be defined, observed, and tuned as code.
