Understand why Ramp built their own AI coding infra (agent, sandboxes, integrations) and you’ll understand why other companies independently did the same (eg Stripe, Uber, Block etc.) We’ll soon see Codex / Claude Code / Cursor etc “copy” what these places have already built!

It's rate to see a non-AI frontier lab build an in-house AI coding tool that works so much better than what frontier labs have to offer. Ramp did this with Inspect: an AI coding harness fully intergrated with their systems, running on cloud machines, and being a smash hit inside the company. Ramp basically runs full-blown cloud development environments (CDEs) for agents to build code on, and validate it, and has made this tool "multi-player" by default, with no opt out. We find it likely that the likes of Codex, Claude Code and GitHub Copilot will build similar tooling in a few months' time to what Ramp already has in-place. Deepdive: https://t.co/kzMw6fDgtj
