AI agents

Stage

Stage is a new code review platform designed to help engineers better understand and review AI generated code. Engineering teams are shipping faster than ever with agents, but now they’re drowning in an endless backlog of PRs to review. Stage reorganizes the code review process around how engineers naturally think, enabling you to review (and merge!) PRs 5x faster. Used by top engineers at Legora, n8n, Branch, and more.

Similarity graph

Local clusters rerank extracted product concepts and description terms. The generated graph remains the fallback for sparse descriptions: offline reciprocal product-similarity graph: extracted concepts + description terms + bounded category/affiliation boosts. Minimum fallback score: 0; max competitors: 6.

Haystack

match 77

Haystack helps engineering teams manage the growing volume of AI-generated pull requests. Coding agents make it much easier to produce code, but they also create a new problem: teams now have more changes to review, many of them larger, more frequent, and harder to trust at a glance. Haystack sits on top of GitHub and acts as the control layer for AI-generated code changes. For every pull request, it looks at the codebase, the diff, the agent trace, the author’s intent, and any verification evid

cubic

match 74

Code review is a major bottleneck for software teams, and the rise of AI-generated code is making the problem worse. Reviewing large volumes of code slows devs down, and increases the chances of bugs slipping through. That's why we're building cubic: an intelligent code review platform that helps devs merge PRs 28% faster. How? - When you open a PR, cubic automatically reviews it. It learns from your codebase's patterns, points out bugs, suggesting fixes, and frees you from low-level review task

Sourcebot

match 67

Sourcebot is an open source code understanding platform for massive codebases. We’re used by thousands of engineers in some of the largest companies in the world, including NVIDIA, Red Hat, Wikimedia, and Arista Networks. Understanding code, not writing it, is the primary bottleneck for large engineering teams. For developers, this means onboarding onto complex codebases faster. For AI agents, it means getting the necessary code context to minimize hallucinations and maximize cohesion within the

Webvizio

match 58

Webvizio accelerates the web development process by generating one-click bug reports enriched with visual context and technical data. This data gathered for each bug is used to create AI prompts for AI dev copilots like Cursor, Tabnine, and Codeium, enabling developers to implement code fixes in seconds rather than days.

REV1

match 48

REV1 is Claude code for mechanical engineers, starting with automating the process of turning 3D designs into 2D manufacturing drawings – which is more than 25% of all of what a mechanical engineer does - our software does it in minutes. Compressing hours of work into minutes while delivering consistent, higher quality results.
