Not too long ago, at the ripe age of 25, I found myself feeling burnt out and somewhat disillusioned with engineering. Coding had been my passion since I was a teenager, but as I navigated the professional world, it had slowly but surely morphed into a burdensome chore.

We’ve already unpacked why great documentation is crucial for the longevity of any serious software endeavor. From supercharging developer productivity to de-risking sudden team changes, software docs play a pivotal role in the lifecycle of a codebase. And yet, there remains a stark gap between talk and action.

Imagine this — you’re working tirelessly on a major new project. You’ve mapped out complex data flows, woven together algorithms, and swung for the fences with a delightful user experience design. Your code is undocumented, but you’re not worried. Code documentation is avoidable, you reason.

Ever since our inception, we’ve received resounding validation from our users on Komment’s invisible approach to automating software documentation for organizations. Today, we mark another significant milestone in this journey. We are thrilled to announce our pre-seed funding of $1.
