Grit

Grit is a revolutionary software tool designed to tackle the issue of technical debt in modern software development. By leveraging advanced AI and static analysis, Grit allows developers to perform large-scale code modifications efficiently. Developers can set high-level goals, such as migrating from AngularJS to Angular 15 or converting JavaScript codebases to TypeScript, and Grit's AI agents handle the intricate implementation details. This flexibility enables broad code modifications while allowing precise control over sensitive areas using deterministic, declarative rules.

Grit's approach is akin to using bulldozers rather than scalpels, making the process of refactoring large codebases less cumbersome and time-consuming. This has already resulted in significant time savings for beta customers like Faire and PromptLayer, transforming projects that would take months into tasks completed in days.

The company recently raised a $7M seed round to expand its capabilities, with plans to support every major programming language by the end of the year. Currently, the open beta supports JavaScript, TypeScript, Python, CSS, and Terraform. Grit aims to make software development more reliable and scalable, addressing the technical debt accumulated over the past decade.
