Infield combines automation with expert developers to manage open source software upgrades safely. The platform scans projects to break upgrading into incremental steps, calculates a living upgrade plan that accounts for risk, effort, and interdependent dependencies, and either automates the process or provides a self-serve tool for internal teams. It tracks progress over time on a dashboard to show how dependency posture improves. Infield differentiates itself from dependency automation tools by handling the full upgrade lifecycle, including remediation of breaking changes, rather than just flagging outdated packages.
