Toronto AI code automation deploying multiplayer agents that scan codebases and submit bug-fix PRs autonomously; YC S22 $2M Panache-backed competing with Devin and GitHub Copilot for AI engineering agent adoption.
Lancey is a Toronto, Canada-based AI code automation platform — backed by Y Combinator (S22) with $2 million raised from Panache Ventures, Union, Garage Capital, Functional Capital, YC, Wallace Capital, and Murchison in October 2022 — deploying multiplayer AI agents that continuously scan codebases, identify high-impact bugs and code quality issues, autonomously draft fixes and improvements, and submit pull requests for engineering team review, targeting software development teams that want code quality automation running in the background without requiring engineers to context-switch to issue triage. Founded in 2022 by twin brothers Adi and Abhi Patel (former engineers at Ada, the Toronto AI-powered customer service platform), Lancey pivoted from its original interactive product demo focus to the AI engineering agent positioning after finding stronger product-market fit in the automated code improvement workflow.
