About

Codeium was founded to democratize AI-powered coding assistance by making high-quality code generation and understanding available to every developer, not just those at well-resourced enterprises. The company built its own proprietary AI models trained specifically on code, allowing it to offer a fast, accurate coding assistant without depending on third-party model providers. Codeium's core technology supports over 70 programming languages and integrates natively into more than 40 IDEs, covering the full range of developer workflows from autocomplete to multi-file edits.\n\nCodeium's platform offers both a free tier for individual developers and an enterprise product — Windsurf for Teams — that provides shared context, admin controls, codebase-aware suggestions, and compliance features for engineering organizations. The assistant performs inline autocomplete, chat-based code Q&A, and autonomous multi-step code generation, enabling developers to move faster without sacrificing code quality. Enterprise customers benefit from air-gapped deployment options and fine-tuning on proprietary codebases, making Codeium viable in regulated and security-sensitive environments.\n\nCodeium reached $40 million in ARR with over 700,000 developers and 1,000-plus enterprise customers, processing more than 100 billion tokens daily at the time of its acquisition by Cognition in July 2025 for $2.85 billion. Total funding prior to the acquisition was $243 million. The acquisition by Cognition, the AI software engineering company behind the Devin AI agent, positions Codeium's infrastructure and customer base as a foundation for next-generation autonomous software development.

About

International Business Machines Corporation (IBM) is an Armonk, New York-based global technology and consulting company — publicly traded on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE: IBM) as an S&P 500 component — providing hybrid cloud infrastructure, artificial intelligence software, and enterprise IT consulting through approximately 270,300 employees in 170 countries with $62.8 billion in annual revenue. Founded on June 16, 1911, as Computing-Tabulating-Recording Company through a merger orchestrated by financier Charles Ranlett Flint, renamed IBM in 1924 under Thomas Watson Sr., IBM has undergone multiple strategic transformations over its 110+ year history: building the System/360 mainframe platform (1964), launching the IBM PC (1981), selling the PC division to Lenovo (2005, $1.75B), and completing the $34 billion Red Hat acquisition (2019) that repositioned IBM as a hybrid cloud platform company. CEO Arvind Krishna (appointed April 2020) has focused IBM's strategy on three areas: hybrid cloud (powered by Red Hat OpenShift, the enterprise Kubernetes platform), AI (the watsonx platform for enterprise AI model development and deployment), and enterprise consulting. Under Krishna, IBM recorded $12.7 billion in free cash flow in 2024 (a company record), surpassed $6 billion in generative AI bookings since June 2023, and saw the stock price double — trading at all-time highs through 2024-2025. IBM announced the DataStax acquisition in 2025 to deepen watsonx's data layer with AstraDB (vector database for AI applications), DataStax Enterprise (Apache Cassandra), and Langflow (low-code AI agent development).
