Gitar, a startup using AI agents to secure code, has raised $9 million to address code overload from AI-generated code.Summary
Gitar, a startup founded by Ali-Reza Adl-Tabatabai, has emerged from stealth with $9 million in funding led by Venrock. The company's platform uses AI agents to perform code-quality operations like reviews and continuous integration workflows, aiming to manage the influx of AI-generated code and its associated issues. Gitar's approach focuses on "code validation" to ensure code is trustworthy and ready for production, with the goal of automating most human code reviews in the future. While other companies are in the automated code review space, Gitar differentiates itself by focusing on post-generation code management. The new funding will support hiring for engineering and product teams and scaling the company's services.
