Fleet is an open-source device management platform that provides comprehensive MDM (Mobile Device Management) capabilities across macOS, Windows, Linux, ChromeOS, iOS, and iPadOS. Built on osquery, nanoMDM, Nudge, and swiftDialog, Fleet offers the industry's first GitOps-enabled MDM solution with transparent, programmable device management. Major 2025 updates include iOS and iPadOS support, enhanced patch management features, Android Enterprise integration, Volume Purchase Program (VPP) app distribution, and support for multiple Apple Business Manager (ABM) tokens. The platform now enables management of iPhones, iPads, and Android devices alongside traditional computers from a single interface. Fleet recently secured $27M in Series B funding led by Ten Eleven Ventures, demonstrating strong market validation. The company has achieved significant growth with revenue increasing six-fold over two years and serves high-profile customers including Netflix, Stripe, Fastly, Uber, and Reddit who have enrolled millions of devices. Key capabilities include cross-platform device management, automated OS updates with Declarative Device Management (DDM), zero-touch deployment via Apple Business Manager and Autopilot, configuration profiles management, automated software deployment and patching, vulnerability reporting with CIS benchmarks support, and real-time device monitoring. Fleet supports CI/CD workflows and version-controlled changes for collaborative device management. The platform addresses the limitations of conventional cross-platform MDM solutions by working directly with data and events from each native operating system. Fleet offers both free (MIT license) and commercial tiers, with the free version remaining always free and supporting unlimited devices. Organizations can deploy Fleet anywhere without vendor lock-in, making it ideal for enterprises seeking transparency, flexibility, and control over their device management infrastructure.

Key Features

Osquery-based device management platform

Leverages Facebook osquery to provide SQL-based queries against device state, enabling complex compliance checks and inventory management using familiar SQL syntax.

Real-time device querying with SQL syntax

Execute ad-hoc SQL queries across entire fleets to investigate security incidents, verify configurations, or gather inventory data with results returned in seconds.

GitOps workflow for policy management

Manages device configurations and policies as code in Git repositories, enabling version control, peer review, and automated deployment of configuration changes.

macOS MDM protocol support

Native implementation of Apple MDM protocol for managing Mac computers, including configuration profiles, app deployment, and security settings without third-party agents.

Windows MDM capabilities

Supports Windows 10/11 management through Microsoft MDM protocol, enabling policy enforcement, application deployment, and security configuration for Windows devices.

Vulnerability detection and reporting

Automatically identifies CVEs present on devices by correlating installed software versions with vulnerability databases, prioritizing patches based on severity and exploitability.

Open source device management

Fleet provides good device visibility and policy management. GitOps approach is interesting for configuration management. Still maturing but shows promise for large fleets.
