Hello 🫡
We’re Paul and Mikkel, the cofounders of Async.

TL;DR
We build coding agents to do the gruntwork. They’re already better than Cursor and Claude Code in a few ways:

1. Mobile. We’re not just a Slack bot. We built a mobile app that’s intuitive, simple, and actually works.
2. Parallelism. Fire and forget. Don’t stare at your monitor — work on many tasks all at once.
3. Accurate: We run asynchronously, i.e., that means we can take more time to get things right.
4. Secure: Don’t worry about our agents messing up your laptop, we run in the cloud.

Problem

It’s easier than ever to prototype a new idea. But it still isn’t easy to scale.
Work crops up: bug fixes, papercuts, migrations. And neither you, nor your team, want to do it.

And it’s not only painful, it’s expensive to do.
Context switching is costly. Asking your engineers (or being the engineer) to work on urgent requests from Slack drains productivity and kills morale.

Solution

Async does what you don’t want to do. Just ask Async.

And once it’s done, Async will send you a PR to review.

We built our own coding agent that achieves 66% accuracy on SWE-Bench verified (#3 as of writing).

• It indexes your entire repo to learn things like your coding style, preferred libraries, design patterns, and file structure.
• It consists of many small agents that are specialized to a particular task, such as environment setup, execution planning, and implementation.
• It does what engineers normally do before raising a PR: it runs build, runs lint, runs tests, and creates preview deployments from within the app.

Next steps:

• We’re going to hit #1 on SWE-Bench verified and open source our agent.
• We’re going to start QA testing your code, if you use Async, you’ll get screenshots of the changes it made

Team

We’re old friends (known each other since college) and we’ve both worked in tech for almost ten years now in various places (Amazon, Meta, Stripe)

We’re builders. We like building products that solve problems for people.
But the reality is, we didn’t always get to do that.

With Async, we’re going to change that.

Our Ask

1. Give us a shot and try us out. It’s available now.
2. If you know any other managers, directors, or founders that could relate with the above, please send them our way: founders@async.build

Thank you and cheers.
-Paul & Mikkel.
