About Lens
Lens is a desktop app for viewing, debugging and operating Kubernetes clusters. It also gives organizations a separate product, Lens Agents, for running AI agents on enterprise systems under policy and audit.
What it does
Lens shows your clusters in one desktop workspace, so you can inspect resources and work on problems without switching between many tools. The app runs locally with your own credentials and respects role-based access control. An AI terminal can connect a coding agent such as Claude Code or Codex to the full cluster context, so the agent can see what you see.
Key features
- Cluster view in one desktop app
- Runs locally with your own credentials
- Respects role-based access control (RBAC)
- AI terminal with cluster context
Who it's for
Developers and platform engineers who work with Kubernetes every day. Enterprise teams that want AI agents to work on their systems, with an identity, policy and audit trail for each agent, may also look at Lens Agents.
Pricing and good to know
The Kubernetes app is downloaded from the site, and the product says it needs no backend or cloud service to run. Lens Agents is sold to organizations and is described as a governed platform. Check the pricing page for plan details before you choose between the desktop app and the enterprise product.
