CodiumAI rebranded as Qodo on September 30, 2024 alongside a $40M Series A funding round. The rebrand addressed persistent confusion with Codeium (the AI coding assistant that became Windsurf) and aligned the product name with its expanded focus on code quality beyond the original test generation use case. The name Qodo combined “Quality” and “Code.”
The PR-Agent — CodiumAI’s open-source automated code review tool, which had accumulated thousands of GitHub stars — became the foundation for Qodo Merge, now offered both as a managed SaaS product and as a self-hosted open-source deployment. The community-owned fork (github.com/The-PR-Agent/pr-agent, Apache 2.0 licensed) remained actively maintained with 11,600 GitHub stars by June 2026.
Qodo Command, launched June 2025, introduced a CLI agent framework where teams defined custom agents as configuration files with triggers, tool access, and output formats — deployable to the terminal, CI/CD pipelines, GitHub Actions, or as MCP server endpoints. Qodo 2.0 (February 2026) restructured the PR review architecture around parallel specialist agents running simultaneously for bugs, security, code quality, and test coverage. The platform reached 1.5M+ combined IDE installs (878K VS Code + 636K JetBrains) and customers across Fortune 100 companies by late 2025.
