<h2>The Agentic Software Factory for 10x Builders</h2>
<p> AI agents can now write 99% of the code. This changes what it means to be a developer. Our role shifts to knowing <strong>what good looks like</strong>. To do that, we need completely new developer tools. Tendril is that tool and replaces your IDE in an agentic era. </p>
