The New Stack 1 month ago 4
OpenAI hired Git AI founders Aidan Cunniffe and Sasha Varlamov to join the Codex team and use Git AI to measure how coding agents perform for businesses. The founders will start work in time for Codex on September 12, 2026. Git AI’s open-source tracking will be kept while OpenAI is expected to use its data to help enterprises verify Codex’s ROI, potentially winding down Git AI’s standalone commercial business.
