Smplify raises $1M to move device management beyond the admin console
Smplify lets people, scripts, and AI agents manage Apple, Windows, and Linux fleets, with built-in approvals and a record of every change.

Every compute surface is becoming an endpoint
Enterprises are putting sensitive data and intellectual property on AI workstations, model servers and rented compute. Smplify is building the last-mile control plane for that environment: deterministic control where policy becomes reality, starting with endpoints.

A mixed fleet should not require three operating models
Apple, Windows and Linux will remain different because their protocols, capabilities and evidence models are different. Plate 001 shows how an endpoint team can declare one outcome, compile it into native policy for each applicable platform and bring the resulting state back into one governed loop.

Device management is the last layer that still assumes a person is watching
Endpoint and IT platform teams are being asked to let scripts, pipelines and models act on the fleet without giving up human control. Plate 000 shows the control plane this requires: callable from every surface, governed at execution and accountable after the device changes.
