Enterprises use Emergent to write, maintain, and test millions of lines of code autonomously, cutting development cycles from months to days.

Headquartered in San Francisco, we’re led by repeat entrepreneurs with a proven track record of building successful startups, joined by a world-class team of Olympiad medalists, IIT & IIM alumni, and veterans from Google, Amazon, and Dropbox. Together, we’re building at the frontier of AI and systems engineering—shipping daily and setting new standards for AI-driven development.

In just 90 days, we scaled to $15M ARR, making us one of the fastest-growing AI startups in the world, with users across 180+ countries.
