Mission Our mission is to create a world in which everyone can code. A world where everyone, not just ~0.1% of the world population, can code will see faster and more broadly beneficial technological progress.
For thousands of years after writing was invented, most people remained illiterate. Universal literacy seemed unlikely. Is it really possible that every human would be capable of reading and writing? How would literacy benefit the average person? As we now know, every human is capable of and benefits immensely from literacy.
More recently, around 1976, just 0.2% of the world’s population used computers. Two tiny companies sought to make computing universal: Apple’s vision then was to create a “bicycle for the mind” in the form of a computer, and Microsoft wanted to put a computer “on every desk and in every home”. Though it seemed unlikely at the time, as we now know, everyone is capable of and benefits immensely from having a computer (or a phone).
Today, only about 0.1% of the world’s population can code. That tiny group has built software that runs the modern world and improves the lives of billions of people. Think of the possibilities if everyone was able to code. All around the world, more people would be able to solve problems and improve their lives by building software. We don’t know exactly what these billions of coders will create, but we know that this will bring faster and more broadly beneficial technological progress.
Description Sourcegraph’s code intelligence makes it easy to read, write, and fix code. With Sourcegraph, you can search all of your repositories across all branches and all code hosts. Beyond that, you can navigate code, find references, see code owners, trace history, and roll out large-scale changes to many repositories at once and track big migrations.
Sourcegraph's AI coding assistant, Cody, writes code and answers questions using your own code graph as context—even in complex codebases with multiple code hosts.
Our customers include many of the world’s leading companies, such as Amazon, PayPal, Uber, Lyft, Yelp, Atlassian, and Indeed. The all-remote company is backed by Andreessen Horowitz, Sequoia Capital, Craft Ventures, Redpoint Ventures, and Goldcrest Capital.
