We have worked with thousands of amazing people
Zen Agents unlocked the next level of productivity for our teams. Through integration with our tools, we've eliminated hours of context-switching and created an organization that benefits from our collective expertise.
We're delighted to roll out Zencoder's Autonomous Zen Agents. Automating bug fixes and dependency updates through our CI/CD pipeline means our developers can focus on feature creation, not maintenance.
Most CodeGen tools failed on a 1K LOC Java class—bad docs, wrong bug fixes, and broken tests. Zencoder outperformed them all, generating accurate unit tests even for complex code.
Seriously impressed by Zencoder. Spent 2 hours banging my head against the wall, trying to refactor something with Cursor, and Zencoder did it in 10 mins just now!
Zencoder is like having an Al pair programmer-it anticipates my needs, reduces repetitive tasks, and lets me focus on solving complex problems. A must-have for IntelliJ developers.
Zencoder made building RESTful APIs effortless. Just describe the API, and it finds the right libraries, writing the script for you. Huge time saver.
