About
We're building Aide, an AI-native IDE designed for engineers to enjoy problem-solving with agents by their side. We're currently a team of two, based in London, United Kingdom. Between us, we have been tech leads with experience building testing infrastructure at Meta, payment systems for 150k merchants in India, been an ACM ICPC world finalist and Open-Source contributor to critical infrastructure including gRPC and the Bazel build system. We love dev tooling, and enjoy thinking about the future of programming.

Currently building CodeStory. I have worked extensively in the devtooling and AI space for the last 5 years as the tech-lead for testing infrastructure at Meta and as the founding engineer for Findly.ai (YC S22). Passionate about making developers more productive and want to build for a world where developers have powerful AI agents working together to ship more value. I love making computers do things. 👾

Launch
CodeStory is a full-blown AI-powered IDE built to tackle any complex task, so you can accomplish your goals faster.
CodeStory launches an AI-first IDE (as a VSCode extension) that integrates with AI assistants, enabling engineers to collaborate with AI agents across the codebase using language-server features, terminal access, and a code graph. It targets developers building complex tasks and aims to improve how AI helps complete and debug code.
From the original launch (Aug 2023) — may be outdated.
