About

Hi! I'm Bence, co-founder of Hoplite. I've been into computers for ~9 years now (since I was 11!), but only got into serious programming 3 years ago with betterexams.ie -- the project that got me accepted into Immersive Software Engineering (ISE), Ireland's top CS course 🙂 In the second year of ISE, I dropped out with my co-founder, Ryan, to go full-time on our startup. A couple months after that, we were accepted into the YC S26 batch! I'm eternally grateful to everyone who has helped me pursue this dream of mine.

Why are you still using local coding agents?

We launched Hoplite today - it's a passion project driven by our love for dev tools (especially ones that feel incredible to use, like Linear).

In simple terms, Hoplite allows you to 'effortlessly' use cloud coding agents. We port over your local sessions/memories/MCP servers, so you can just pick up right from where you left off, but now you can close your laptop lid!
