We're building a coding agent that isn't afraid to stop and ask questions! It checks in with you before it makes key product and engineering decisions, so you can trust it with more open-ended tasks than you can with other coding agents.
Before Compyle, we were building SmartAppetite (AI agents for insurance). Using tools like Claude Code / Cursor, we had a demo in days - then spent weeks cleaning up a codebase we no longer fully understood.
We had to pause feature development just to refactor. That pain is why we built Compyle.
We built Compyle by essentially orchestrating a bunch of Claude Codes. We have multiple "overwatcher" agents checking for various things, as one main coding agent is working. We check for things like bad patterns (based on your project rules) and mismatches between what the coding agent is doing and your plan / decisions.
We also generate artifacts, like research and planning documents.
We built it on top of the Claude Agent sdk (with Sonnet 4.5 on all the agents) and Fly machines to be able to spin up sandboxes quickly.
Compyle keeps you in control through a question-driven approach: - You describe the task - Compyle asks questions until it fully understands - It produces research and planning artifacts before writing code - During implementation, it validates changes against your decisions - If something doesn't match up, it stops and asks
Our vision is to keep engineers in the driver's seat the entire time. We feel that other agents, like Replit, Devin, and even CC are pushing hard to go in the opposite direction (having agents run for 6+ hours autonomously); As engineers, we want more control, not less!
We'd love for you to try our open beta! It's totally free right now -
I would love to hear what you think if you get a chance to test it!
