Code Understanding
is the Next Frontier

Code understanding consumes 75% of developer time. We're building the tools to change that.

75%

Developer Time

Spent understanding existing code — reading, navigating, reasoning about systems before writing a single line.

2027

The Coming Shift

As AI generates more code, developers become code navigators. Understanding at scale becomes the core skill.

"We see a future where most code is AI-generated and developers shift fully to code understanding tasks. We're building the tools for that world — today — for developers, PMs, researchers, and security auditors."

Not Just an Internship.
An Accelerator.

Direct mentoring from the CTO. Daily 1:1s. Real projects from day one.

Pre-PMF Startup Experience

Raising money, hiring, securing first customers — worth more than an MBA. You'll be part of the founding story, not a cog in a corporate machine.

Tools of the Trade

We build with the best tools for the job — performance, safety, and developer experience first.

Who Are You?

Level doesn't matter. Will and skill do.

Who You'll Work With

Two founders with a rare blend of deep research and real-world execution.

AN
Anicet Nougaret
CTO — Your Direct Mentor
IUT Paris → INSA Lyon → European Space Agency where he worked on black hole detection as a data scientist. Now building AI tools for developers. You'll get direct daily 1:1 mentoring from him — the kind of technical depth and research mindset that most engineers never encounter.
IG
Isaline Goudeau
CEO
Louis Legrand prépa → HEC → Quantum Physics at Sorbonne → Amazon Data Engineering → BCG Tech Strategy. A rare combination of elite academia, hard science, and business execution. She leads strategy, fundraising, and go-to-market with the same rigor she applied to quantum physics research.

The Dedale Story

From ESA and HEC to an AI company backed by the world's top startup program.

🗓️

Founded Jan 2025

Born at the intersection of space research and startup ambition. A very new company moving very fast.

🏆

Entrepreneur First

Pre-seed backed by EF — the world's top international talent-first incubator. You're joining a vetted team.

🌉

Paris → San Francisco

First product shipped. Next: paying customers, seed round, and expanding to San Francisco.
