Qodo secures $70 million in funding to develop AI-powered code verification tools, addressing the challenge of ensuring the quality and reliability of AI-generated code.
Why it matters
As AI becomes more prevalent in generating software code, the ability to automatically verify the correctness and security of this code becomes paramount. Qodo's focus on AI-powered code verification addresses a critical bottleneck in the AI-assisted development lifecycle, promising to improve software quality, reduce bugs, and enhance developer productivity. This investment highlights the growing market demand for solutions that can manage the complexities introduced by AI in traditional software engineering.
Imagine AI writing computer code for you. Qodo is getting money to build tools that check if that AI-written code actually works correctly and is safe. This is important because as more AI writes code, we need to make sure it's good code.
