Founded by the team behind DataFleets ($100M+ exit), Memex is an Everything Builder empowering tech-savvy professionals to create technology without coding expertise.
Memex is an Everything Builder platform that empowers tech-savvy professionals to create sophisticated software without coding expertise. It functions as an autonomous AI collaborator that can drive the entire development process based on natural language instructions, handling everything from code generation to execution and debugging.
Unlike AI coding assistants that require programming knowledge or no-code platforms with limited flexibility, Memex works as a true AI pair-programmer that handles technical implementation while users focus on their vision and domain expertise.
With Memex, users can build any kind of software by simply chatting in natural language. It supports any programming language, any tech stack, and can deploy to any platform—all from your desktop. Whether creating web applications, mobile apps, data analysis tools, or automation scripts, Memex serves as the bridge between innovative ideas and functional software.
Memex is especially valuable for technically inclined professionals like product managers, researchers, data scientists, solutions engineers, and tech-savvy business owners who understand technical concepts but lack formal coding training.
Memex is launching out of stealth with an Everything Builder platform that empowers tech-savvy professionals to create sophisticated software without coding expertise. After a successful closed beta with thousands of users across 100+ countries creating over 3,000 projects, Memex is now publicly available.
Memex is already transforming how tech-savvy professionals create software:
A hotel chain manager with limited technical experience used Memex to replicate and modernize antiquated Microsoft framework tools over two months, avoiding costly software procurement and migration.
A surgery resident and public health researcher at a leading university medical center used Memex to develop a custom OCR solution for processing hundreds of handwritten medical forms from rural Africa, accomplishing in hours what would have taken weeks of learning and troubleshooting.
A user with financial trading concepts but no experience with coding created and deployed an automated trading bot that analyzes data every five minutes to execute trades based on market conditions.
Other Notable Projects by Tech-Savvy Professionals:
Market Opportunity: Memex targets tech-savvy professionals like product managers, solutions engineers, small business owners, researchers, data scientists, and others who understand technical concepts but lack formal coding training. According to Gartner, these semi-technical professionals outnumber professional developers by 4:1 in 2025, representing a massive untapped market.
Expanding Developer Pool: AI is dramatically expanding who can create software. While there are roughly 27-29 million professional software developers worldwide today, the semi-technical cohort could easily reach 150-200 million globally by 2030. Memex is positioned to capture this growing segment of builders.
Hot Market: The Everything Builder space is experiencing explosive growth. Peer companies like Cursor.com recently set the record for fastest growth to $100M ARR in history, while companies like Lovable and Bolt are seeing similar wildfire adoption. Conservatively, the global generative AI in software development market will reach $2.83 billion by 2030, growing at 35%+ CAGR.
Unique Approach: Unlike coding assistants that require programming knowledge or no-code platforms with limited flexibility, Memex functions as an autonomous collaborator that can drive the entire development process based on natural language instructions, handling everything from code generation to execution and debugging.
Memex is founded by the team behind DataFleets, a privacy tech company acquired for over $100 million less than three years after founding:
Together, the team holds over a dozen patents in AI and privacy technology. Memex has secured backing from David Gilmore himself (contributing the bulk of the capital) along with Peterson Ventures, AME Cloud Ventures (led by Jerry Yang, founder of Yahoo! and former chairman of Alibaba Group), Morado Ventures, MVP Ventures, and other investors who previously backed DataFleets.

Our founding team explains the inspiration behind Memex and how it's transforming software development for tech-savvy professionals worldwide.
The opportunity for tech-savvy professionals is massive and growing:
As AI lowers barriers to entry, Memex is positioned at the forefront of what CEO David Gilmore calls "the Jevons Paradox of software development" – where making development more efficient doesn't reduce demand for developers but instead dramatically increases demand due to falling costs of building software.
The founding team has been featured in prominent publications:
"AI is fundamentally changing who can build software. We're witnessing the emergence of a new class of builders – tech-savvy professionals who understand technical concepts but previously couldn't execute their ideas due to coding barriers. Our Everything Builder gives these users the power to create sophisticated applications through natural language, effectively functioning as an AI pair-programmer that handles the technical implementation while they focus on vision and domain expertise."
