A.Kilo Code started as a fork of Roo Code, which itself is a fork of Cline—the two fastest growing and most popular open source alternatives to Cursor.

A.Kilo Code is developed by JP, Justin, Darko, Brendan, Aleks, Adam, Olesya, James, Johan, Kevin, Eamon, Chris, Coen, Christiaan, Tru, and Remon. With help from Owen, Jonno, and Jelle.
A.We're not actively hiring, but we're always looking for top talent. Email us at hi@kilocode.ai if you're interested. We're remote-first, but with offices in SF and Amsterdam. Expect to work really hard and have a ton of fun.
