About Sunrise

A production-ready Next.js starter template built to help developers ship faster while maintaining high standards for code quality, security, and maintainability — including a complete AI agent orchestration layer.

Our Mission

Modern web development involves countless decisions — frameworks, authentication, databases, deployment, testing, and more. Each choice requires research, implementation, and debugging. This takes time away from building the features that matter most.

Sunrise solves this problemby providing a complete, production-ready foundation. We've made the hard decisions, implemented best practices, and documented everything thoroughly. You get a head start measured in weeks, not hours.

And because modern apps increasingly include AI agents, Sunrise ships with a complete orchestration layer too: providers, agents, capabilities, workflows, knowledge bases, and observability. The boring stuff done well — plus the modern agentic primitives so your app can include AI agents from day one.
