Hud addresses a key gap in AI agentic coding and software engineering: building code that actually works in complex, real-world production environments at scale. Our Runtime Code Sensor installs in under a minute, with zero configuration or maintenance required. It automatically captures live service and function-level data from production- providing the missing context to detect and fix issues, and to build production-safe features.
