Welcome to the Seedcamp Nation, Recurse ML! Code maintenance accounts for around 30% of all software engineering time spent globally. Especially in big enterprises that have custom systems and many repositories, software engineers face the gargantuan task of understanding how these interlock or using a reinforcement learning model to understand it. This is why we are excited to partner with Recurse ML, a UK-based startup on a mission to fully abstract mundane tasks away from software engineers. Founded by Jack Jackson and Armins Stepanjans, Recurse ML streamlines the development process by seamlessly integrating into the workflow, automating tedious tasks, and allowing software engineers to maintain the codebase with a single command. We are excited to co-lead Recurse ML’s £2.5 million funding round alongside. Read on to find out why we partnered with Recurse ML: https://sdca.mp/RecurseML
