Zencoder - Integrated, customizable, and intuitive coding agent

@andrewsthoughts @masump Hey Masum, that's literally what we do. We have a robust technology (Agentic Pipeline) that will go through several steps. So, instead of just spitting out the first things that come to LLM's "mind," we run a series of steps.

We start with code validation and testing
Our pipeline checks generated code against your codebase, not just general syntax rules. Before generating any code, we run syntax and code correction, check imports and dependencies, and validate within your project's specifics.

Then, we'll do an Automated Repair Loop.
When issues are detected, agents don't give up - they initiate repair cycles. The pipeline diagnoses problems, applies fixes, and re-validates until the code meets quality thresholds - bringing you to the production-level code quality.

And it powers all our agents through our Unified Agent Infra
So, essentially the same validation pipeline powers all our specialized agents. Whether generating new files, or making changes to existing ones, or making unit tests, each agent benefits from the context of your repository and continuous improvement cycles.

@andrewsthoughts @masump @vibor_cipan The deep IDE integrations, strong AI benchmarks, and Repo Grokking tech set it apart. Congrats on the launch

@andrewsthoughts @masump @dineshan_sithamparanathan Thank you — your comments are spot on! Deep IDE integrations, 60%+ SWE-Bench scores, and Repo Grokking make Zencoder a standout for developers. We’re happy with the early response and value your support.

Stay tuned for more at our 6 PM CET webinar! Feel free to join if you are around - we'll be demoing all these things and more: https://zencoder.ai/webinars/maximize-productivity-with-zencoder

@andrewsthoughts Love it

@andrewsthoughts @pooran_prasad_rajanna And we love your support and comment.

@tigran_iii You are 100% right, but we've been working on this for quite some time, have good scores, and users love it. Thanks for your comment and feedback.

If you have any suggestions or feedback, feel free to share it with us. We reply to every comment and take it very seriously as we build the best possible agent and assistant for every engineer.

@catalinmpit, it's great to see our community members here, thanks so much for your kind words and encouragement! We are building like there's no tomorrow!

@andrewsthoughts @rocsheh Thanks for the congrats and support! I'm happy you love the IDE integrations and Repo Grokking — key for large codebases.

The 20+ DevOps integrations, including Jira and Sentry, plus the unit testing agent, are designed for that ‘speed + quality’ balance you are mentioning.

No CLI/API access yet, but we’re demoing MCP (Model Context Protocol) support at our 6 PM CET webinar—stay tuned: https://zencoder.ai/webinars/maximize-productivity-with-zencoder.

On SWE-Bench, it’s a very useful benchmark, but we prioritize real dev productivity and ease of use—SWE-Bench just quantifies those gains in some aspects. Appreciate you rooting for us!

@mihajlo_kuzmanoski, thank you for taking the time to share your comment with us. Your observations were spot on!

I believe that this combination (plus the fact that we are in IDEs that developers already use, like VS Code, JetBrains, and Android Studio) makes it an excellent tool for them. We now support 20+ different integrations - you can natively work with Jira in the IDE, mention tickets, and ask Zencoder to solve them for you. That's a vast unlock, and I don't need to spend too much time switching my mental context and widows on my computer while developing!

@vibor_cipan Absolutely! The ability to work natively with Jira inside the IDE is a huge productivity boost. Reducing context switching is such a game-changer, especially for fast-paced teams handling multiple tickets. Excited to see how Zencoder continues to evolve—any upcoming features you’re particularly excited about?

@mihajlo_kuzmanoski I think our MCP support is a pretty powerful feature (and it'll keep getting so much better!), and we'll likely add more integrations. There are many other things coming soon as well, but we have to keep some surprises for the future.

If you'd like to see how these things work together, I'm happy to invite you to our community webinar today if you have time to join us. More info here: https://zencoder.ai/webinars/maximize-productivity-with-zencoder

Is there something in particular that you'd like to us to focus on that would help you with your workflow?

@vibor_cipan That sounds awesome, MCP support and more integrations will definitely make Zencoder even more powerful. Unfortunately, I won’t be able to join the webinar today, but I’d love to check out future sessions or a recording if available. As for my workflow, anything that further enhances AI-driven debugging and code refactoring would be a huge plus. Looking forward to seeing what’s next!

@mihajlo_kuzmanoski We'll have a bunch more in the future. You can also easily join our community on Slack and Discord if that's something you find interesting and useful to stay in touch with everyone and learn about future events and all our releases.

Thanks so much for your time and feedback!

@dmitry_zakharov_ai Thanks for the question — we’re glad Zencoder caught your interest!

While we respect Cursor and its nice features, Zencoder stands out in a few key ways.

• We’re an extension to IDEs like VS Code, JetBrains, and Android Studio, so devs can stay in their preferred workflows without switching to a new IDE.

• Our Repo Grokking tech offers deep understanding of large codebases, and ...

• ...paired with agentic repair, the code we generate is reliable and production-ready.

• We also provide superior support for languages like C#, Java, and Kotlin, especially in native IDEs like IntelliJ IDEA.

• Lastly, our plans (including the free plan) are more generous, giving everyone a chance to explore how an AI assistant can boost their productivity.

That said, Cursor’s team is great, and we’re both working to empower devs to be efficient, creative, and build amazing things. Appreciate you taking a look!

@dmitry_zakharov_ai Great question! Zencoder stands out in a few key ways compared to Cursor:

• Repo Grokking(Codebase understanding/Context Awareness) is far more powerful and intuitive, making it significantly better at handling complex codebases due to how we’ve architected it.

• Higher code quality and efficacy with agents that iteratively correct the code. This is reflected in our #1 ranking on SWE-bench multi-modal and achieving 60%+ on SWE-bench verified—a major leap in AI-driven development.

• Seamless IDE integration, operating where developers already work. This is especially beneficial for Java developers using JetBrains IDEs and C# developers in the VS Code ecosystem, ensuring a smoother experience.

Would love to hear your thoughts! 🚀

Sounds exciting! Our CTO needs to see it. Do you have any trial?

@dmitry_zakharov_ai We do! You can go to https://zencoder.ai/, I suggest you sign up for a free Business plan trial (14 day, no credit card needed) and give it a go. Happy to connect with you and do a demo for you and your CTO.

 @alex_zhezherov Great question! Zencoder’s use cases are incredibly diverse—everything from “vibe coding” to freeing developers’ time for more creative work. When it comes to building apps, codebases can grow large quite fast, and Zencoder’s agent has an unmatched ability to grok (understand) these sprawling codebases like no other platform.

"Vibe coding" term applies for both 0->1 and existing code bases. Our primary audience is professional engineers, but it can be used by other curious minds as well. Our kids are using it:-)

@andrewsthoughts @archie_sharma1 @alex_zhezherov I just wanted to add to what the team has mentioned, but with a focus on integrations. We integrate with 20+ different tools - we have native (built-in) Jira integration, a Chrome extension supporting contextual (on-site) integration with tools like Sentry, GitHub, GitLab, Linear... and we have MCP support.

We constantly evaluate those and find the best possible experiences and use cases. We will soon have more on them in our docs and cover them during different events/webinars to help users get the most from Zencoder.

Thanks for your comment and for stopping by!

@ivan_vershok, I love your comment - even more so as we see Zencoder as a true sidekick and a teammate/buddy to every engineer and builder out there. Thanks for stopping by and sharing your encouragement, Ivan!
