+## Diagrid Catalyst
+
+Diagrid Catalyst is an AI orchestration platform that brings durable workflows, access control, and governance to AI agents and MCP servers. It delivers an AI-native workflow engine that integrates with existing agent frameworks, ensuring agents pick up where they left off in the event of any failure, from simple restarts to complete system outages. Catalyst also lets platform teams and developers issue cryptographic identities to agents, MCP servers, and tools, and apply policy-based access control across the organization.
