Top Software Engineering Startups in 2027

IR Labs is an applied AI studio and a venture of Integrated Research Limited. We build products where AI meets hard engineering problems, and we run them as real businesses. Our first product, Agentic SQA, is live. It investigates pull requests in C codebases and reports likely defects with evidence: the suspected failure mode, the exact scope and the next step. When nothing clears the bar, it stays silent. It runs on real repositories today, it is generally available and customers pay for it. It was built for the hard layer. Kernel modules, device drivers, firmware, embedded targets and the C libraries everything else stands on. The code where a bad merge costs weeks, not minutes. AI solved writing code. Trusting it is the harder problem, and verification is the scarce layer. That is the company. We are a small senior team, US based and fully remote, working in cross-functional squads across AI and ML, data infrastructure, systems, compiler engineering and product. We look for deep technical ability, strong systems judgment and a bias toward proving ideas in working systems. We are comfortable being wrong fast and changing direction when the data says to. Before you talk to us, use the product. Form your own view. Every conversation we have starts with what you saw.

SheCanCode is on a mission to close the Tech Gender Gap. We help women to enter, remain, and excel in the tech industry. We help companies to attract and hire a more diverse workforce. We started as a women-in-tech blog, and over the last three years have grown our platform into an active women-in-tech support hub, providing tools and resources for women who are in careers in tech or are considering entering or transitioning into a career in tech. We now have a lively and active community of over 100,000 women worldwide and see that increasing every day. We are a small group of highly motivated and entrepreneurially minded individuals that have a shared love for celebrating women in technology. The problems we are solving are not easy, but we believe that by using innovative, creative, and collaborative approaches, and leveraging our strong network we have the potential to make a difference in the future of women in technology.

We are building some cool stuff using AI that will help anyone prepare for interviews more efficiently

Every AI team, more efficient. AI writes more code than ever, but no one can tell if it's worth it. Tools like Cursor, Claude Code, and GitHub Copilot are now standard, and spend on them is climbing fast, yet leaders still can't see how AI is being used, where it's being wasted, or whether it's improving how teams ship. Cloud got its observability layer a decade ago. AI coding doesn't have one yet. Planckspace is building it. We give engineering teams one place to see and manage everything about their AI coding: cost attribution across developers, teams, and repos, efficiency and cost-per-shipped tracking, cost and token optimization, budgets, governance, and verified savings proven from real usage. It works across every major AI coding tool, and only usage metadata ever leaves the machine. Never your code, never your prompts.
