Codegen, Inc.

Our Mission

Our mission is to build fully-autonomous software engineering - the equivalent of self-driving cars for code.

We believe the highest leverage path to autonomous development is enabling AI agents to “act via code.”

Just as self-driving cars need sophisticated sensors and controls to navigate the physical world, AI agents need powerful, precise tools to manipulate codebases. We’re building that foundational layer: a programmatic interface that lets AI agents express complex code transformations through code itself.

This approach creates a shared language that both humans and AI can use to:

  • Express powerful changes with precision and predictability
  • Build sophisticated tools from primitive operations
  • Create and maintain their own abstractions
  • Scale transformations across massive codebases

The Team

Based in San Francisco, we’re a team of engineers and researchers passionate about:

  • Making large-scale code changes more accessible
  • Building tools that work the way developers think
  • Creating the infrastructure for AI-powered code manipulation
  • Advancing the state of the art in program transformation

Open Source

We believe in the power of open source software. Our core library, codegen, is freely available and open to contributions from the community.
