Corporate Adoption of AI Coding Agents Surges in 2025
New data from Jellyfish shows a rapid increase in companies using AI tools that independently handle coding tasks, moving beyond assistive AI.
New data from Jellyfish, a software engineering management service, reveals a sharp rise in corporate adoption of agentic AI tools for coding tasks. These tools go beyond mere suggestions, performing actions like reviewing, authoring, and submitting code independently.
Key Findings
- 82% of companies now use agentic AI for coding tasks, up from just over 50% at the start of 2025.
- AI-powered code reviews saw even faster growth, jumping from 39% in January to 76% in May.
- Only 8% of companies are piloting fully agentic coding workflows, where AI writes and submits code without human intervention.
Popular Tools
- GitHub Copilot Reviewer, Cursor BugBot, and CodeRabbit lead the market for AI code reviews.
- Emerging tools like Graphite and Greptile are gaining traction.
Challenges Ahead
Despite the rapid growth, full automation of coding workflows remains rare. Only a small fraction of companies have embraced fully agentic systems, highlighting the technical and trust barriers that still exist.
Industry Implications
The data underscores a shift in software development, with AI agents becoming integral to corporate workflows. However, human oversight remains critical, especially for complex tasks.
