About Us

Adaptiva, the autonomous endpoint management company, delivers the fastest way to patch and manage endpoints at scale.

We offer OneSite, the first fully adaptive autonomous endpoint management platform. IT and cybersecurity leaders use OneSite to gain a hands-free, fully automated approach to speeding the continuous delivery of software, patches, and vulnerability remediations.

Founded two decades ago, hundreds of today’s largest global organizations rely on Adaptiva to increase operational efficiency, reduce risk, and maximize patching velocity across millions of endpoints.

Adaptiva is headquartered in the Greater Seattle area—in Kirkland, Washington—and has team members around the world with deep expertise in enterprise endpoint management and innovation.

Our philosophy is simple: Humans should define strategy and process, and software should do the rest.
