You can make sound product decisions on your own. You have clear likes and dislikes about AI coding tools you have tried, and know what should be better. We dogfood a lot! About Us: Indent is building the platform that every software engineer begins and ends their day in. Our customers are large engineering teams who use Indent for everything from incident response to code review to data analysis. Indent is built to handle these tasks in the real world (think analyzing a 30,000 table warehouse, not vibe querying a tiny Postgres instance) with minimal setup. We are a small, engineering-focused team. We come from a background of systems and infrastructure engineering, working on things like the Swift Compiler, distributed data orchestration software, and scaled video conferencing systems. We think that rigor is an advantage in this get-rich-quick market. We are taking an ambitious approach to a massive market.
