## Resource

In this episode of Global Economic Press, Alex Brady delves into the innovative strides being made by GitHits in the realm of artificial intelligence and coding. GitHits has successfully raised $1.75 million in pre-seed funding to develop what they describe as the "Google of code search." This funding round saw participation from Vendep Capital, Trind, and notable angel investors such as Peter Sarlin, Zach Shelby, and LlamaIndex co-founder Jerry Liu. The company's vision is to index all public open-source code, thereby addressing a significant gap left by major players like OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google. GitHits aims to complement existing AI coding agents by providing open-source code as context, which helps in reducing retry loops and token consumption. Chief Technology Officer Olli-Pekka Heinisuo, who has a rich background in the open-source ecosystem, explains that modern software extends beyond local codebases into frameworks, libraries, and other open-source dependencies. GitHits offers tools for AI coding agents to find working examples of open-source implementations and inspect software components, including dependencies and vulnerabilities. The company is launching a free beta version of its command-line interface tool on Product Hunt. This initiative is part of their broader strategy to build an AI-native, version-aware index of all public open-source code.
