Grit debuts with $7M round, offering AI that auto-analyzes and updates software codebase for devs

Aug 15, 2023 - venturebeat.com
Grit, a startup that has developed a generative AI-powered developer assistant, has emerged from stealth with a $7 million funding round. The assistant automatically analyses a program's codebase, tracks it over time, and suggests updates and improvements. The tool can be installed as a Github app or connected to GitLab, where it scans a company's code repository and builds an index of it. It then uses a highly optimized search tool to understand where to make changes in the application codebase according to pre-set goals.

The tool has already saved customers like Faire and PromptLayer a significant amount of time. Grit's primary customer base are later stage technology companies and some firms in Fintech. The startup's open beta currently supports application codebases written in JavaScript, TypeScript, Python, CSS and Terraform, and plans to cover every major programming language by the end of the year.
