Executive Summary

Engineering teams building with LLMs struggle to give AI agents accurate, up-to-date codebase context without sending huge code dumps that burn API tokens, increase latency, and create compliance blind spots. This is especially painful for enterprise engineering orgs and platform teams that face recurring token costs, slow developer workflows, and strict auditability requirements. You could build a developer platform that stores fine-grained, provenance-rich embeddings in a vector store and serves retrieval-based, compact code slices and cryptographically signed snapshots to agents so prompts don't include whole files. By combining targeted retrieval, on-the-fly summarization, and telemetry integration with CI/CD, the product can dramatically reduce tokens per query (often 5x+ in common scenarios) while preserving verifiability of code changes. The market looks attractive now: a $6.0B addressable market (100K organizations × $60K ACV) as teams accelerate LLM adoption across code review, refactoring, and automation and standardize on vector databases and embeddings. Enterprises' growing demand for auditability and verifiable AI workflows increases willingness to pay for solutions that provide signed snapshots and traceable telemetry. The competitive edge comes from combining a retrieval-first architecture with provenance, cryptographic signing, and tight CI/CD integration to deliver measurable cost savings and an auditable trail—features that favor enterprise purchases. Challenges include substantial engineering and security complexity, integration work to prove ROI to large customers, and medium-level competition, but if you can demonstrate consistent token savings and trustworthy provenance the $60K ACV profile makes this a viable enterprise product to pursue.

Market Opportunity

Give AI agents actionable codebase context without burning tokens targets a $6.0B = 100K organizations × $60K ACV (enterprise & large engineering orgs needing advanced code AI context) total addressable market with medium saturation and a year-over-year growth rate of 15% YoY (Gartner/IDC estimates for developer tooling and growth in AI-enabled developer productivity solutions).

Key trends driving demand: LLM adoption in engineering teams is accelerating — companies are embedding AI into code review, refactoring, and automation workflows, creating demand for efficient context delivery.; Vector databases and fine-grained embeddings are becoming standard building blocks — this enables retrieval-based, token-efficient solutions that were infeasible two years ago.; Enterprises are demanding auditability and verifiability for AI-driven code changes, which favors products that provide signed snapshots and telemetry.; Rising API and token costs have shifted buyer attention to ROI-driven tooling that can demonstrate concrete savings on cloud/LLM spend and developer hours..

Key competitors include Sourcegraph (Cody), GitHub Copilot / Copilot for Business, Cursor.
