About Docker

GPAgent's own fund-neutral profile, written from public information. Updated Oct 5, 2026.

Summary

Docker builds the container platform that developers, operators, and enterprises use to package and run software in isolated environments. It solves the gap between development and production by ensuring code runs the same way regardless of where it is deployed, replacing ad-hoc environment configuration and dependency management. Docker's current focus extends to securing sandboxed environments for AI agents and hardening container images for enterprise supply chains.

Business model

Free personal tier, then per-user monthly plans for Pro ($9), Team ($15), and Business ($24), plus enterprise add-ons for hardened images.

Go-to-market

Individual developers start free or self-serve into paid plans, while enterprise procurement is handled through direct sales for Business-tier and Docker Hardened Images contracts.

From the Y Combinator listing

Software development platform.

Docker is the world’s leading software container platform. Developers use Docker to eliminate “works on my machine” problems when collaborating on code with co-workers. Operators use Docker to run and manage apps side-by-side in isolated containers to get better compute density. Enterprises use Docker to build agile software delivery pipelines to ship new features faster, more securely and with confidence for both Linux and Windows Server apps.
