The deployment platform Octopus users wish they'd switched to years ago.
JawsDeploy gives teams reusable deployment flows, environment-aware variables, custom scripts, and release promotion without the legacy GUI tax.
Familiar mental model.
Sharper edges.
If you've used Octopus, Jaws Deploy will feel just like home.
Model your real-world infra
Environments, machines, tags. Scoped variables auto-apply per environment, machine, or tag.
Pipelines, not YAML soup
Compose your pipeline from built-in step templates. Use custom PowerShell or Bash logic where your deployment needs it.
Cross-platform by design
Run Jaws Deploy on Windows and Linux, use modern, cross-platform PowerShell Core scripting.
Observability that catches up to ops
Real-time logs, machine-by-machine status, deployment timelines, and retention.
Step templates and custom scripts.
In whatever language you already use.
Mix built-in step templates with your own PowerShell 5 or 7 logic — or drop in a raw script anywhere in the pipeline. Bash and Python support coming soon.

// AI-NATIVE
Jaws speaks MCP.
Your AI. Your bill.
Drive your deployments from Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, or any Model Context Protocol client — using the AI subscription you already have. No token reselling. No model lock-in. No new vendor to evaluate.
Build pipelines from a sentence
Describe what you need to deploy. The AI creates the project, adds steps from your template library, and fills in each step's settings. You review it in Jaws before anything runs.
Diagnose failed deploys in seconds
Point your AI at a red deployment. It reads the logs, the script, and the step properties — then tells you exactly what broke and how to fix it.
Works with the tool you already use
Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor, Codex, Continue — any MCP client. Set it up once. Switch AI tools whenever you want. No lock-in.
// JAWS vs OCTOPUS
We were Octopus customers, too.
The pricing made us build this.
A like-for-like comparison on a 20-machine deployment footprint.
"Jaws Deploy streamlined our deployment automation across 30 projects and over 100 servers. Migration from Octopus was straightforward, and the PowerShell Core SDK made integration with TeamCity and GitLab seamless. It's a reliable, efficient solution that just works."
