ByteAsk

ByteAsk is an AI coding agent for C and C++ that works from the terminal and verifies its changes against a project’s own build, sanitizers, debugger, and tests. It indexes codebases to help locate bugs, then can write fixes, add or update tests, and produce pull requests from assigned tickets. Its integrations include LLVM, GCC, gdb, Valgrind, and CMake, while editor plugins use the same command-line interface.

Developers can bring their own model keys or use their own server. ByteAsk runs on laptops and supports on-premises, air-gapped, and bring-your-own-key deployments, with zero data retention and a stated policy that customer data is not used to train models. The company offers a free plan and enterprise options, alongside documentation, an installation guide, changelog, Discord community, and GitHub resources.

ByteAsk serves teams working in areas such as trading, embedded systems, automotive, silicon and FPGA, industrial controls, and operating systems, with support for relevant standards and toolchains
