TLDR; Pythagora is a VS Code Extension that writes all the code for the app you want to build and talks to you whenever it needs a creative decision or feedback. It is focused on building production-ready apps that you can deploy and use, so to achieve that, it keeps you, the human, in the loop throughout the entire development process. Pythagora manages the entire codebase and talks to you in natural language.
Today, new AI dev tools come out almost weekly. While many showcase impressive demos, very few prove their worth in building real-world, production-level applications. We think that this is because they don’t put the human in the loop enough. There is a notion that apps can be built just by writing 2 sentences of what kind of an app you want, and then you just wait until AI comes back with a fully built application.
We believe that humans have to be involved in the entire process of app development to give timely feedback so that AI can make changes as it works on specific features.
Pythagora talks to the user throughout the entire development process. First, it creates a plan for building the entire application. Then, it goes task by task, implementing each one, but before going on to the next one, it asks the user to test whether it’s working as intended. We noticed that very often, Pythagora implements a feature correctly, but users, once they see how a feature works, decide they want it to work differently.
If you know a company that’s looking to build internal tools, please connect us. I’d be happy to give them access to Pythagora v1 and do a demo.
Senko and Zvonimir met at a startup event in 2016. when Senko was looking for someone who would lead a side project that he started. Zvonimir accepted the challenge, we turned that project into a company, and 5 years later, in 2021., we sold the company to Miro.Leon and Zvonimir have been best friends since starting college in 2009. and after the Miro acquisition, we started learning ML together and playing with different ideas. In 2023. we created our first open-source project for generating automated tests with AI and it quickly gained 1.4k Github stars. After talking to users and observing how AI is evolving, we decided to pivot to GPT Pilot, which became one of the fastest-growing open-source projects ever.While we worked on the GPT Pilot, Senko was exploring a similar idea, so finally, in October 2023. we decided to join forces and build Pythagora together.
