Understanding why we built a new kind of version control for the age of AI-assisted coding

What is Git Version Control?

In traditional software development, Git is an indispensable version control tool. It's powerful and rigorous, suitable for large-scale collaboration, clear branching strategies, and stable deployments. Git enables development teams to track code changes, manage different versions, and coordinate multi-person collaboration—it's the cornerstone of modern software engineering.

Branch Management

Complex branching strategies and merge workflows

Team Collaboration

Conflict resolution for simultaneous development

Version History

Detailed commit records and change tracking

But the AI Era Changed Everything

We discovered that when AI began assisting people with programming, things became different.

Vibe Coding is Rising

Programming has become more like a creative process: we converse with AI, modify, experiment, and start over, constantly iterating through inspiration and feedback. This approach is both immediate and non-linear, like writing, composing music, or sketching—not an industrial assembly line.

But Git doesn't understand any of this.

It requires us to write clear commit messages at the “right moment,” remember every change point, and manually manage branches. But for many people new to programming, or developers who want to focus on creativity itself, this is an unnecessary burden.

Characteristics of Vibe Coding

Immediacy

When inspiration strikes, implement it immediately without stopping to consider version management complexity

Non-linear

The creative process is full of experimentation and rollbacks, not traditional linear development workflows

Focus on Creativity

Developers want to focus on creativity itself, not complex technical processes

AI Collaboration

Conversational programming with AI requires more flexible version management approaches

Our Solution

A new kind of “code memory” built for the Vibe Coding era

No commits, no branches

No need to understand Git's complex model. Just write code, and the system automatically records every edit, every AI-assisted change, every rollback, and every prompt.

Review, compare, and restore anytime

You can review, compare, and restore at any time, and share your entire creative process with others with one click.

Infrastructure for inspiration

We're not replacing Git, but building infrastructure for a different kind of programming experience—one oriented toward inspiration, openness, and collaboration for the next generation of code creation.

Our Vision

“Enable everyone to freely create code without being constrained by complex version control tools, focusing on turning ideas into reality”
