| Stepsize | Stepsize is a technology company that builds tools for people to create better software faster. Agile teams of 100-1000 people use their first product to automatically document their code so they can spend more time creating value for their customers. Software development is extremely knowledge intensive which makes it slow, expensive, and errorprone. And if you’re non technical you can’t bring your ideas to life yourself. Their purpose is to change that by gradually reducing the knowledge and expertise you need to create software.Their first product Layer is a search tool for engineering team. The desktop application helps software developers who work in teams get their own work done and reduces the friction in collaborating with team mates. Layer achieves this by structuring data from the main tools they use every day (version control, code hosting, project management tools, continuous integration, and communication tools) and making it searchable via a search interface, but also directly from the code itself, git hooks, or via a CLI. |  | Pre-Seed | Mar 29, 2016 | http://stepsize.com/ |
