OUR HISTORY
Our mission is to help customers unlock endless digital possibilities by harmonizing the delivery of software.
Our objective is both to help our customers facilitate a more integrated software development lifecycle, and to derive a better understanding of business value through the application of analytics, machine learning, and artificial intelligence. We do this with our AI-powered DevSecOps Platform, which enables customers to unify, secure, and generate predictive insights across the software lifecycle. While the technology we provide enables customers to digitally transform, it is also important to note that with the help of hundreds of Digital.ai worldwide employees, we help answer, implement, and guide our customers through technology and strategic decisions.
The company began as a collection of individual products derived from a series of acquisitions in 2020.
