Augment Code launches Cosmos to bring agentic AI software development to teams
Augment Code Computing Inc., an artificial intelligence agent platform provider, announced the launch of Cosmos Thursday, a service it says is designed to push beyond the era of individual AI coding assistants and into a more coordinated model for engineering teams.
In an interview with SiliconANGLE, Vice President of Engineering Vinay Perneti said that as AI has progressed, users and software engineers alike have moved along with it. It’s time that the software industry received the benefit of the technology.
“I think the eras were almost like ’24 was probably mostly chat, ’25 I think is agents, but I would actually go a little step further… ’26 is going to be agents for teams,” he explained.
To him, Cosmos represents the next phase of that cycle, where agents have been inserted into the software development lifecycle doing autonomous work for individual developers and seeing their speed increase, but teams haven’t seen that same boost because context isn’t shared between them.
