Ethan Schechter reposted thisEthan Schechter reposted thisWe are excited to share that Qodo has raised $70M, led by Qumra Capital 🎊 But this is not the story. The story is this: Software development has fundamentally changed. But this tectonic transformation is still in its early days, especially for real-world, enterprise-grade systems. Every engineering leader we speak with is asking the same questions: 1. "Can I trust what is being shipped?" 2. "Am I using the right tools and processes for this new AI-native world?" 3. "As PR volume and size continue to grow rapidly, is the code correct, aligned with our standards and intent, and not tomorrow’s technical debt?" This is the shift: From writing code, to agentic code generation, to governing it systematically. At Qodo, we are building the missing layer: A system for code review, quality, and governance in the age of AI-generated software. Not just more output, but trusted output. This is a long-term mission. The tooling, processes, and interfaces will evolve rapidly, and we are just getting started. --- Imagine a world where: > You plan features with AI, and Qodo reviews those plans to optimize them before a single line of code is written. > You execute with coding agents that continuously interact with Qodo to verify correctness, integrity, and alignment with intent. > Every code change comes with a full verification report, backed by hundreds of signals, so you know if it's good to go, or exactly what needs attention. Imagine a world where: > at any moment, you understand the health of your codebase. > Not through guesswork, but through clear, actionable insights into integrity, compliance, maintainability, and security. This is the future Qodo is building, together with our ecosystem and you. --- We are incredibly fortunate to be on this journey with: • Customers pushing the boundaries of modern engineering • A deeply mission-driven team • Partners and investors who think boldly and act with conviction Thank you to everyone building this with us 💜 The transformation of enterprise software development has just begun. Stay tuned for our April product announcements.

Ethan Schechter reposted thisEthan Schechter reposted thisThe hardest problems in software development are still unsolved. Code quality. Governance at scale. Making AI actually raise the bar instead of lowering it. These aren't easy problems, and that's exactly why we're working on them at Qodo We're building a new team, and we're looking for the founding engineers to build it with us: a a Tech Lead and a Senior Engineer in NYC (hybrid). If you want to own complex problems, ship fast, and care deeply about the quality of what you build, I'd love to talk. Drop a comment or send me a DM :) #Qodo #Hiring #SoftwareEngineering #AICode #NYC

Ethan Schechter reposted thisS Ventures is excited to back Qodo in their $70M Series B. Over the past few years, the industry has been obsessed with how AI can generate more code, faster. Far less attention has been paid to what happens next. Qodo is tackling one of the most important challenges in the AI software stack: not how code gets generated, but how it gets reviewed and governed. As AI accelerates software development, speed is no longer the constraint; quality, consistency, and trust are. Qodo’s approach reflects a deep understanding that enterprises don’t just need more code, they need systems that can evaluate it, contextualize it and uphold standards across the entire lifecycle. We’re proud to support Itamar Friedman, Dedy Kredo and the entire Qodo team as they deliver the platform for high-quality software in the age of autonomous agents.Ethan Schechter reposted this🚀 🚀 Today Qodo is announcing $70M in Series B funding to lead the market in AI code quality and governance. A year ago, AI was suggesting code. Today it's shipping it autonomously. The quality gap we saw coming is now landing in production at scale, and most engineering teams don't have a governance layer built for that reality. Qodo was built for this moment. Review, quality, and governance for the agentic era. "As we expand the use of AI-assisted development across our platforms, Qodo ensures every line of code meets our standards for performance, security, and compliance. The layer of governance Qodo provides is critical to delivering seamless, reliable travel experiences at a global scale. We are innovating faster while maintaining the trust our customers place in us at every stage of their journey." — Christian Rudolph, Head of Platform Services, TUI Group. The future of software is autonomous. But it also has to be wise. Huge thank you to Qumra Capital for leading this round!! 🚀 Read the Full announcement → https://lnkd.in/e9CKs9-R?

Ethan Schechter reposted thisEthan Schechter reposted thisBig news: Qodo just raised $70M in Series B funding. 🚀 But what I'm most proud of isn't the number, it's who's in our corner. NVIDIA. Walmart. Red Hat. Intuit. Texas Instruments. Monday.com. JFrog. World-class companies trusting us to make AI-generated code something they can actually ship with confidence. And a team that wakes up every day to solve one of the hardest problems in software: not writing code faster, but knowing it works. AI is generating billions of lines of code a month. Verification is the next frontier. We're built for it. Proud to be part of this ride. The best is ahead. #Qodo #SeriesB #AICode #SoftwareDevelopment Itamar Friedman Dedy Kredo https://lnkd.in/gZAwfaFqQodo raises $70M for code verification as AI coding scales | TechCrunchQodo raises $70M for code verification as AI coding scales | TechCrunch

Ethan Schechter shared thisVery fired up to be part of Qodo’s $70M Series B!!! This raise bring our total funding to $120M and it goes without saying that I’m incredibly excited for what’s ahead. From my side of the business, leading Sales and Customer Success, I get a front row seat to what engineering teams are dealing with right now. AI is helping teams move faster, but it is also creating a real need for better code review, testing, and governance. That is a big part of why I’m so excited about what we’re building at Qodo. Huge shoutout to @Itamar and @Dedy for the vision and leadership and a big thanks to @Qumra, @FNX, @Maor Investors, @TLV Partners, @Square Peg, @SentinelOne, @Vine Ventures, and @Susa Ventures for being part of this next chapter. Proud of the team, grateful for our customers, and excited for everything ahead. #Qodo #SeriesB #AICode #CodeQuality #CodeGovernance

Ethan Schechter liked thisAnother day, another benchmark where Qodo is #1. Love seeing the team’s work recognized. 💥Ethan Schechter liked thisQodo Is #1 on the Martian Code Review Benchmark We've been heads-down building the most accurate AI code review system on the market. The Martian benchmark, an independent, third-party evaluation of code review quality, just confirmed we're leading the field on both precision and recall. Qodo ranks first in F1 score. What the benchmark measures F1 score is the harmonic mean of precision and recall. Both have to be strong to produce a high F1. That matters because in real code review, optimizing for one at the expense of the other creates real problems: High precision, low recall means your tool rarely cries wolf, but it misses bugs. The issues that slip through go to production. High recall, low precision means your tool catches everything, but it floods engineers with noise. Signal gets ignored. Review fatigue sets in. The tool gets turned off. We've been saying for a while that code review needs its own dedicated AI, architecturally independent from the tool that generated the code. The Martian benchmark is proving that this approach produces better results for real-world, heavy duty software development.

Ethan Schechter liked thisEthan Schechter liked this🚀 I still can’t believe we’re doing this. At Qodo, we’re opening up free AI-powered code review scans for public repositories and making them available to the community. 👉 https://lnkd.in/gazsYYCg We’re offering this to the first 1,000 repos. If you’ve ever wondered about the real health of your codebase, this is a chance to get objective, automated insight. What I’m most interested in: Did we surface issues that actually matter? Did we find anything worth fixing immediately? Were there any “how did we miss this?” moments? If you run a scan, I’d genuinely value your feedback. And if we uncover some juicy bugs, even better. Let’s squash them. #AI #CodeReview #DeveloperTools #SoftwareQuality #EngineeringExcellence Qodo

Ethan Schechter liked thisEthan Schechter liked thisI ran Qodo's Anti-Slop Scanner on my OSS repo. It came back with 7 bugs confirmed live on main. 3 critical findings. These bugs merged and have been sitting in production. 🫠 If you build with AI and ship frequently, I'd run this on your repos to see if your last 10 PRs are clean. 90+ OSS repos have already been scanned. The average right now: ~2 issues per PR that code review workflows didn't catch. Here's a clip of my first reaction 📽️👇🏽

Ethan Schechter liked thisAI has fundamentally changed software development. The volume of code being generated right now is staggering, and as that output explodes, we’ve hit a massive bottleneck: trust. As generating code becomes trivial, the challenge shifts to code review and ensuring that code is actually reliable, secure, and production-ready. This is why we’re so excited at Qumra Capital to lead Qodo's $70M Series B. Qodo is building the governance and integrity layer that gives teams confidence they are shipping bug-free, precise code at scale. It’s a vision Itamar and Dedy have pursued long before others, and seeing their product resonate with some of the world’s largest enterprises underscores how critical this problem has become. Huge congratulations to the entire Qodo team on this milestone! We’re thrilled to partner with you and our friends at TLV Partners (Brian Sack), Square Peg (Yonatan), Vine Ventures (Daniel), Susa Ventures (Seth), Phoenix Financial (Tomer), Maor Investments (Ilai), Ethan, Adam, Leigh, Sarit, Daniel, Ofer Vishkin Lior LahavEthan Schechter liked this🚀 🚀 Today Qodo is announcing $70M in Series B funding to lead the market in AI code quality and governance.

Ethan Schechter liked thisEthan Schechter liked thisEvery data team I've spoken to in the last few months is grappling with how to leverage AI and agentic tooling in their organisation, and we wanted a home for folks to show what they're building and share the knowledge! So we're launching Demo Night for Agentic Analytics in London. The format will be different from other meetups, with short lightning talks and live demos of real tools in action, food and drinks on us. Sign up for London's first-ever session on April 30th, link in the comments! 🔗 👇👇👇
