• Weave

  Participated · Series A · Jul 2026

  Weave offers an engineering intelligence platform that analyzes pull requests, code reviews, deployments, and AI-generated contributions to produce a unified measurement of engineering output. The company uses machine learning models to connect coding activity with business progress and to estimate the AI spending required to produce an hour of completed engineering work. Features include recommendations for lower-cost AI models based on production data and metrics that surface AI adoption, engineering quality, and cost of AI-generated work. Weave reports having analyzed more than 2 million contributions across over 20,000 engineers at more than 500 organizations, and counts Robinhood, Reducto, and PostHog among its customers. Based in San Francisco, the startup aims to curb what it calls “tokenmaxxing” by shifting focus from volume-based metrics to outcome-based measurements.

  Namespace was built to address the unique characteristics of code workloads, which the company describes as bursty, latency-sensitive, incremental, highly parallel, and requiring reproducibility, provenance, and security. The team says existing infrastructure was not designed for these needs, so it built a compute platform tailored for code across both software and hardware. Namespace publicly announced the $23M Seed and Series A funding led by NEA with Susa Ventures and Burst Capital. The company is actively hiring and has stated it will scale its team, indicating growth plans following the raise.

The company relies on a series of AI models, with heavy tuning of a Llama-based text-to-text pipeline to improve formatting and personalization. Founded by Stanford dropouts Allan Guo and Lawrence Liu, Willow graduated from Y Combinator’s Spring 2025 batch.
