BlockBeats News, June 18 — Jack Dorsey's financial services company Block announced a new set of AI-native tools called Builderbot on Wednesday. Block states that this tool can currently execute about 15% of the company's production code changes, perform over 200,000 operations daily, and merge approximately 1,500 pull requests per week.

Brad Axen, head of Block's AI capabilities, said, "The best way to understand Builderbot is to see it as a missing layer between AI coding tools and the actual large-scale operation of engineering teams." Block claims that work that previously took months can now be completed in just days.

Builderbot is an orchestration layer that coordinates multiple AI agents working across Block's entire codebase. Unlike typical coding assistants limited to a single code repository, Builderbot understands Block's complete codebase, each service, API, and convention, enabling any engineer to make modifications anywhere within the company's system. Block states that sharing details about Builderbot is because they believe transitioning from AI-assisted coding to AI-native engineering is one of the most important discussions in the current tech field.
