Former GitHub CEO Thomas Dohmke has raised a record-breaking $60M seed round for Entire, a new open-source developer platform focused on tracking and managing AI-generated code that is increasingly shipped without direct human review.
The details:
Dohmke stepped down from Microsoft-owned GitHub last August after four years, noting that the developer tools he helped build were not designed for a world where autonomous agents write and ship code. Entire is his answer to that shift.
The company’s first release, Checkpoints, logs AI agent activity during the coding process — including prompts, decisions, and outputs — giving developers a transparent audit trail and greater confidence in what AI systems produce.
Checkpoints currently integrates with Claude Code and Google Gemini CLI, with support for OpenAI Codex and GitHub expected soon.
Entire’s $60M seed round is the largest ever for a developer tools startup, valuing the company at $300M at launch.
Why its important?
Dohmke helped shape the platform where much of the world’s software is built. His move to build infrastructure for an agent-driven development era signals a major shift in the tooling stack. As AI begins generating more code than humans can realistically review, the ability to monitor, audit, and trust machine-written software may become as critical as the agents creating it.
