Sourcegraph Founding Team

Quinn Slack and Beyang Liu started Sourcegraph to make large codebases easier to work with. Their early focus was code search, helping developers find definitions and references across projects.

    Suggests edits using code search and the context of an organization’s repositories.

Sourcegraph Company Development

Code Search as Context for an Assistant

Sourcegraph built tools for navigating code across large repositories before introducing Cody. Bringing the assistant into that search environment made retrieval part of the coding workflow, so a developer could ask about code spread across files rather than start from one open tab.

Sourcegraph Competitive Landscape

Repository Context and Enterprise Deployment

Sourcegraph's roots in repository search make cross-codebase context central to the assistant. Tabnine also sells coding assistance to enterprises, with particular emphasis on deployment inside private or isolated environments. That leaves buyers with two separate questions: what context the tool can retrieve and where it can run.
