San Francisco, November 7, 2018 — Today source{d}, the company enabling Machine Learning for large scale code analysis, announced that Michael Fromberger, former senior software engineer at Google, and technical lead/manager for the Kythe open source project (internally named Grok at Google), will join the company to lead its Language Analysis efforts.

source{d} is now uniquely positioned to be the first independent company that brings the power of Kythe to developers in the open source community and enterprise. By combining the power of Kythe with the source{d} Engine, source{d} offers the most extensive Code As Data product in the market.

“source{d} has developed some unique, powerful, and insightful open-source projects for language-agnostic source code analysis. After spending the past eight years designing and developing the Kythe project at Google, source{d} is a really compelling opportunity for me,” said Fromberger. “Historically, developers and engineering teams have had to reinvent a lot of the same wheels. As someone who’s passionate about both developer tools and open-source, I’m very excited to help address that issue. I believe the source{d} code-analysis and retrieval projects, combined with Kythe integration, will help boost developer productivity substantially.”

Prior to joining source{d}, Michael spent eight years at Google working full-time on the Grok project, a high-quality graph-structured semantic index of source code. He was instrumental in re-designing and releasing Grok as an open-source project named Kythe.

“Michael joining is a major milestone and vote of confidence for the company considering that Kythe is the data layer that powers all of Google’s static analysis over code,” said Eiso Kant, source{d} CEO. “With him on board, source{d} will be able to leverage Kythe’s capabilities to further help companies analyze and modernize their codebases, making it a more productive asset and facilitating the adoption of Inner Source practices.”

About source{d}

source{d}, the only open core company to turn code into actionable data and business intelligence, is building the tech stack that enables large-scale code analysis and machine learning on code. Used by top engineers at world leading companies, source{d} develops projects transparently, collaborating with the broader community of Machine Learning on Code researchers. Headquartered in Madrid, with US offices in San Francisco, source{d} has raised $10 million from Otium, Sunstone Capital and others. To learn more, visit sourced.tech.
