About Hud

Hud is a startup that builds a Runtime Code Sensor, a tool that connects live software running in production with AI-powered coding assistants. By adding a lightweight software development kit (SDK) to their applications, developers can stream detailed, real-time information about how their code behaves — including errors, performance, and function usage — directly to AI tools like GitHub Copilot or other code generators.

This connection allows AI systems to generate code that is aware of real-world conditions, making it safer and more reliable when deployed. Instead of relying on static code or outdated logs, Hud’s technology provides ongoing feedback from the live environment, helping developers create software that better matches actual usage and requirements.

Founded in 2020, Hud aims to transform software development by making AI coding assistants smarter and more context-aware. This approach, called production-aware development, helps teams build higher-quality software faster, with fewer bugs and better performance, bridging the gap between AI-generated code and real-world applications.
