When Jesal Gadhia co-founded a software company a year ago, he expected that the AI agents he had developed would save his customers a lot of work.
He never imagined that the same tools would save his own team at startup Cora so much time.
Agents have written all of the code the company uses – something that wouldn’t have been possible before last year, he told Business Insider.
The company’s six-person team produced what Gadhia describes as “unprecedented” amounts of code in the first 12 months. Five years ago, he said, achieving the same level of productivity would have required 20 to 30 engineers.
“It was unlike any other time I can remember,” Gadhia said of the agents’ impact.
