What Developers Are Saying

Watch them rave about Codebuff (previously "Manicode")
Daniel Hsu

Founder & CEO

I was so flabbergasted that it even did the pip install for me haha
Albert Lam

Founder & CEO

Dude you guys are building something good
Chrisjan Wust

Founder & CTO

I'm honestly surprised by how well the product works!
Stefan Gasser

Founder & CEO

Yesterday at this time, I posted about testing Codebuff for our dark → light mode conversion. Today at 10 AM, our new light design is live in production...
Stephen Grugett

Founder & CEO

Just had a magical manicode moment: ... And it just worked!
Dennis Beatty

Founder & CEO

One of my favorite parts of every day is hearing @brett_beatty giggle in awe at @CodebuffAI. We've been using it daily for a couple months now and it's still incredible 🤯
Omar

Design Engineer

Just did a complete structural refactoring that would have took 4-8 hours by a human in 30 minutes using Claude (Web) to drive Codebuff to finish line. I think research in AI+AI pair programming is a must.

I played around with Codebuff and added some features to something I was working on. It really does have a different feeling than any other AI tools I've used; feels much more right, and I'm impressed by how you managed to land on that when nobody else did.

I finally tried composer. It's ass compared to manicode

manicode.ai > cursor.com for most code changes. I'm now just using cursor for the quick changes within a single file. Manicode lets you make wholesale changes to the codebase with a single prompt. It's 1 step vs many.

Finally, AI that actually understands my code structure and dependencies.
