Bito believes software development will change dramatically over the next 5-10 years, driven by the incredible capabilities of Generative AI. Software developers will become 10-20 times more productive, and the amount of new software built in the world will increase dramatically. But this puts a huge burden on processes such as code review, testing, and build management, and demands totally new approaches. Bito aims to be a leader in the GenAI tools that will enable this transformation.

Bito is building accessible, accurate AI agents trusted by developers across the world. Designed to help software engineers ship faster, better code, Bito offers an AI Code Review Agent with an engine that deeply understands your code in Git or your IDE. Over 100,000 developers already use Bito’s tools every month. Bito’s AI Code Review Agent enables high quality AI code reviews that cut down human engineering time in pull requests by 50%.
