# Upgrade to Kiro
<a name="upgrade-to-kiro"></a>

The Amazon Q Developer CLI has been rebranded to Kiro.

What does this rebrand mean for you?
+ **If you're a user with a personal account**: Optionally upgrade the Q CLI and Amazon Q extension in your IDE to Kiro to take advantage of all the updates that will only be available in Kiro going forward. On upgrade, your extension and Q CLI installation will be rebranded to Kiro, and you'll also get additional features.
+ **If you're an administrator of Amazon Q Developer Pro subscriptions**: Start using the **Kiro** console to manage your users' subscriptions. The Kiro console is a rebrand of the Amazon Q Developer console, with all the same functionality. Have your users upgrade their Amazon Q IDE extensions and CLI installations to Kiro to access the rebranded interface and receive additional features. After upgrading, all Amazon Q components will automatically update to their Kiro equivalents.
