Maintaining Software Excellence in the Age of AI Coding Assistance

In this preview of his AWS re:Invent session, Cortex CTO & Co-Founder Ganesh Datta breaks down how AI coding assistants are transforming software development, and what high-performing teams are doing to keep speed and reliability in balance. You’ll learn: If you care about AI, engineering velocity, or building sustainable systems, this is a must-watch. Full Session: December 3 at 2:30 PM Learn more about Cortex: go.cortex.io/reinvent.

Our Engineering in the Age of AI: 2026 Benchmark Report finds AI is making engineering faster, but not necessarily better

Everyone's talking about how AI is transforming software development. Teams are shipping more code, deploying more frequently, and getting features to market faster than they could a year ago. The productivity gains are real. But we kept hearing a different story from engineering leaders. Yes, velocity is up. But incidents are climbing, resolution times are getting longer, and code review processes are struggling to keep up.

New Feature Friday: AI Readiness and AI Maturity

Everyone wants to move faster with AI. But are you ready for it? In this Feature Friday, Jeff from Cortex shares how working with AI tools like Claude helped him write better code — and why true AI maturity starts with solid engineering hygiene. You’ll learn: “With great power comes great responsibility… and better tests.".

Introducing Braintrust by Cortex: Real conversations about engineering excellence

I'm excited to share that we're launching Braintrust by Cortex, a podcast I've been wanting to create for a while now. After years of building Cortex and working with engineering leaders across industries, I’ve noticed an opportunity for conversations that dig deeper into the daily work of building great engineering teams.

Developer Onboarding

Welcome to the future of developer onboarding with Cortex. In this demo, you’ll see how Cortex helps new engineers ramp up faster by giving them instant access to everything they need—context, ownership, best practices, and workflows—all in one place. What you’ll learn in this video: With Cortex, onboarding becomes a structured, data-driven, and empowering experience. Developers can explore your ecosystem confidently, follow golden paths, and start delivering value immediately—reducing ramp-up time from months to days.

Cortex and Sonar Announce Partnership to Drive Code Quality and Security at Scale

At Cortex, our mission is to empower engineering organizations to ship reliable, secure, and efficient software, faster. Today, we’re thrilled to announce a formalized partnership with Sonar, the leader in code quality and security. For years, Sonar has been one of the most popular integrations in Cortex. Teams rely on Sonar’s deep code insights to identify vulnerabilities, ensure coverage, and raise the bar for clean, secure code.
