Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to common questions about Zof platform and control layer for autonomous software reliability.
What is Zof?
Zof is the control layer for autonomous software reliability. It orchestrates 100+ AI agents that test, validate, monitor, and remediate enterprise software systems under human control.
How is Zof different from test automation tools?
Test automation runs scripts you maintain. Zof orchestrates agents that author, run, and prune coverage as your system evolves, with governed remediation and a live System Graph. You get continuous validation, not just pass/fail in CI.
What is the System Graph?
The System Graph is a real-time model of your software architecture-services, APIs, dependencies, workflows, and data paths. It provides the context that enables intelligent agent validation.
How many validation categories does Zof support?
Zof supports 19 validation categories: Accessibility, API, Compliance, Compatibility, Endurance, End-to-End, Internationalization, Interface, Integration, Load, Localization, Regression, Reliability, Sanity, Scalability, Security, Smoke, Stress, and Unit.
Can I add custom agents?
Yes. Enterprise plans include custom agent support. Integrate proprietary agents into the platform with full System Graph context, workflow orchestration, and execution engine capabilities.
We already use Selenium or Playwright. Why Zof?
Selenium and Playwright run tests you write and maintain. Zof orchestrates 100+ agents that author, maintain, validate, and remediate under human control. Your existing scripts stay in the stack, Zof removes the maintenance tax and adds governed remediation.
AI agents sound risky. How do you govern them?
Every agent action requires human approval. Nothing ships without a named reviewer and audit trail. RBAC controls who can approve what. SOC 2 Type II certified with full evidence export for auditors.
Can humans approve changes before they apply?
Yes. Remediation agents draft typed diffs with impact estimates. Approval routing sends them to the right reviewer under RBAC. Changes apply only after explicit approval. Post-fix verification reruns the validation suite.
Can Zof work in regulated environments?
Yes. Designed for banking, healthcare, and other regulated sectors. SOC 2 Type II, evidence packs aligned to FFIEC, PCI, DORA, HIPAA, and ISO 27001. Every action is queryable and exportable.
How do we measure ROI?
Track test maintenance hours saved, MTTR reduction, escape rate, and release confidence scores. Use the ROI calculator to model savings. Customer benchmarks show 60-80% reduction in test maintenance.
How long does deployment take?
Enterprise deployments typically complete within hours. Zof deploys in your environment-code never leaves your infrastructure. The System Graph builds automatically during initial agent analysis.
What integrations are supported?
Zof integrates with source control (GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket), CI/CD (Jenkins, CircleCI, GitHub Actions), issue tracking (Jira, Linear), communication (Slack, Teams), and cloud providers (AWS, GCP, Azure).
Is my code secure?
Yes. Zof deploys in your environment-code never leaves your infrastructure. We are SOC 2 Type II certified and GDPR compliant.
What is the difference between autonomous and manual mode?
Autonomous mode validates the entire system with all applicable agents automatically. Manual mode lets you target specific agents or workflows for focused analysis. Both modes share the same System Graph context.
What support is available?
Support varies by plan: Starter includes email support, Professional includes priority support, and Enterprise includes dedicated success managers and priority engineering support.
