Check Point® Software Technologies Ltd.(link is external) announced that its Infinity Platform has been named the top-ranked AI-powered cyber security platform in the 2025 Miercom Assessment.
Zencoder released its next-generation AI coding and unit testing agents, designed to accelerate software development for professional engineers.
The platform features deep integrations with industry-standard IDEs (VS Code, JetBrains), as well as JIRA, GitHub, GitLab, Sentry, and other DevOps tools—making it the most comprehensive AI solution for coding and testing on the market.
Zencoder's agents blend advanced AI-driven coding with deep contextual awareness of your environment.
"We are on a journey to turn everyone into a 10x engineer and unlock their full potential and creativity," said Andrew Filev, CEO and Founder of Zencoder. "The agents we release today are a big step forward; they are a force multiplier that can handle routine coding, letting you focus on innovation and more complex aspects of software engineering."
Native IDE Integrations & "Coffee Mode": Zencoder integrates directly into VS Code and JetBrains. This deep integration ensures a smooth workflow and easy adoption for dev teams. The newly released "Coffee Mode" feature allows developers to step away (to Slack or for a quick break) while the AI agents work in the background, automatically coding and testing solutions.
Additionally, 20+ new integrations—such as a "Solve with Zencoder" button inside JIRA—enable engineers to leverage AI assistance throughout their entire DevOps ecosystem.
Key Capabilities:
- Multi-Integration Ecosystem: Goes beyond GitHub/GitLab to include Jira, Sentry, and 20+ platforms, aligning with enterprise workflows
- Deep Codebase Understanding: Capable of complex, multi-file refactoring and merges - essential for rapid iteration in legacy systems
- Self-Repair Mechanism: Automatically tests and refines outputs, reducing debugging time
- Developer-First Design: Works natively within popular IDEs, supporting Java & 70+ languages
With a rapidly growing user base, Zencoder aims to reshape how software is built—empowering teams to do more with less.
The platform is available now.
