Atlantic vs Factory:
From steered Droid to autonomous delivery.
Factory (factory.ai) gives you Droids you steer through a task. Atlantic runs the whole loop from backlog to reviewed PR without steering.

Factory
Factory gives teams Droids that work through assigned tasks. The session starts after a person chooses the work and sets it in motion.
Point by point
Same repository. A different finish line.
The difference is not who can write code. It is who chooses the work, proves the result, and owns the path to review.
