Questions & Answers
Why are you excited about your company/product?
My excitement for Ocoder stems from witnessing a persistent challenge throughout my career. I've sat through countless planning meetings where product managers, designers, and engineers prioritize the upcoming roadmap. Inevitably, smaller but still valuable features get cut due to time constraints and competing priorities. I've seen the frustration this creates for product managers and designers who understand these 'small things' often make meaningful differences to users. This is why I'm passionate about what we're building with Ocoder - our vision is to empower non-technical team members to implement these changes themselves through an AI agent team that will write high quality, well tested code without burdening already-stretched engineering resources.
