With tools like Qodana, TeamCity, and YouTrack, the company focuses on developer experience, standing against the industry's 'most features' race. ## Responsible Code Generation in AI Era The company emphasizes code controllability over rapid generation. In an era where AI increases complexity, it develops tools that let developers easily review and take responsibility for their code. This aims to maintain balance between productivity and code security. ## What Customers Say Users describe JetBrains tools as the 'premium choice.' TeamCity receives praise for its 'dependency-aware intelligent CI/CD,' while YouTrack stands out for its flexible structure and customization ease. ## AI Realism and Practical Approach Instead of releasing half-baked AI features, JetBrains observes how engineering practices evolve. The company follows a principle of not offering beta software to developers, adding only features that address concrete needs. ## Open Ecosystem Investment The company is building an open ecosystem for the AI age. It enables developers to use their preferred models while maintaining existing engineering features. AI innovations like JetBrains Central, Air, and Junie CLI are part of this vision. ## Future-Oriented DevOps Vision JetBrains prioritizes preserving developer experience in an AI-transformed landscape. Its long-term goals include seamless integration and powerful features to help teams produce higher-quality software. ## Sources covering this story - https://blog.jetbrains.com/blog/2026/07/20/why-focus-matters-in-a-crowded-devops-landscape/ — --- _Summary written by Brifing from the original reporting.
