It was a first AI coding tool that stuck for us.
It like directly solved some of the, the workflow annoyances that we had.
Um,
this is great.
Obviously this should exist.
At some point I asked, why weren't we the ones that built this?
Like we should feel bad about that.
And then we realized, okay, maybe there is like still an opportunity to do something given our experience in open source.
We kind of saw, I think what I was saying earlier, like you don't have to just ship a million products to figure out something that works.
If you sit and think,
can figure something out and we kind of looked at it from a positioning point of view like there's a market there's a bunch of coding agents out there for some reason no one has grabbed the open source territory there was no coding agent that was like we are the open source option and that obviously is a super valuable territory every single dev tool we use whether it's databases compilers whatever eventually the open source option becomes the default option right that combined with the fact there's heavy heavy competition uh for models like
Sure, Claude was popular, but there's billions and billions and billions of dollars invested.
They're not just going to let Anthropic win.
There's going to be push from OpenAI.
There's going to be push from the open source side.
So given that we saw that chaos, we saw that it's really valuable to have the open source positioning that tries to work with all the models.
So the initial push for us was to kind of ignore whatever was going on in the market and just make sure that we claimed that open source spot, which we were able to do.
And then, yeah, our numbers have been pretty crazy since then.
So it was just the three co-founders.
Yeah, and then...
