The opportunity: AI coding agents now write code 100x faster than humans can review it, but new bottlenecks mean companies aren't shipping as fast as their agents can write code. We believe the major bottleneck is correctness, and it’s shifting from human code review to continuous, production-grounded validation at every stage of software delivery. Bits Release is an early-stage product that carries every change through the release lifecycle: it reviews the code, validates the change before merge, follows the rollout through staging and production, detects regressions, simulates and proposes fixes, and converts what it catches into permanent safeguards. It fuses Datadog's production signals coupled with newer capabilities like Bits Testing and Live Debugger in a single agentic harness, so companies can ship at the speed their agents write. At Datadog, we place value in our office culture - the relationships and collaboration it builds and the creativity it brings to the table. We operate as a hybrid workplace to ensure our Datadogs can create a work-life harmony that best fits them.
