AI Coding isn't just replacing developers

When we set out to create Fine, our plan wasn’t to “replace developers” or to get AI to write code for the sake of AI writing code.

We wanted to create an "AI teammate" experience of collaborating with AI like you'd collaborate with a colleague developer.

Well, developers need their own dev environment - with the source code, build tools, dependencies and customizations.

If we could create this AI teammate, with a dev environment of its own, in the cloud, the benefits would be awesome:
Working i

  • n parallel on multiple tasks
  • Switching between tasks with a much lower overhead
  • Get tasks done (or started) on-the-go
  • AI can work for you asynchronously, not just whilst you’re involved
  • Easy to test and verify the AI generated code

We’ve been working on Fine for a long time but we’re now at a stage where we can look back and see that we achieved this goal and developers are able to use their AI Teammate in their day-to-day work and not just for hobbies.

We’ve got a full roadmap of features, integrations and improvements coming over the next few months, to make your AI Teammate as versatile and useful as possible. If you’re interested in trying out coding with AI for your startup - check out fine.dev
