## Description

Learn how Leapter is bridging the trust gap in AI generated code. 

Using AI tools to write code is table stakes now. It’s not a huge leap to start imagining a future where AI writes all the code. 

Let’s look back in order to move forwards in the right way.  A legacy codebase that no one understands is a liability in production, the same is true for AI generated code that no one understands. 

But the temptation of “vibe code” is very real. It works.

Most AI tools measure success by how much they can generate. At Leapter, we care more about what you can understand. Understanding leads to trust. Trust leads to speed.
