Permanence today announced that the Permanence AI Coder™ is being utilized by RDK Management to enhance software integrity and accelerate feature development, leveraging dozens of completely AI generated pull requests. This advanced use of AI enables human engineers to focus their efforts on accelerating feature development while still achieving and exceeding stability and software integrity targets.

RDK is an open-source software solution deployed on more than 200 million devices that standardizes core functions used in video and broadband connected devices. By packaging and open sourcing these functions in a single standard software stack, service providers can develop, deploy, and manage a consistent set of broadband services across SoCs and OEMs for use across their networks and geographic footprints. RDK enables service providers to control their device diagnostics data, business models, and apps to improve the customer experience and drive business results.

Permanence’s contributions reflect a shared commitment to open-source software and accelerating software engineering through AI while improving the work of engineers by automating maintenance work. This work builds on over a year of contributions to the broader open-source community and strengthens the coder’s reputation for delivering trustworthy, high-quality code changes.

Joseph Hackman, CEO, Permanence:

“We are excited to be a part of such a vibrant development community and are thrilled to bring value to RDK software engineers. We look forward to continuing to support development and software integrity efforts for various RDK projects. Our success with RDK reflects both the growing demand for AI-driven development and the strength of the Permanence team’s technical capabilities.”

Glee Abraham, Head of Technology, RDK:

“Permanence AI is a welcome addition to the RDK community. Their impressive technology allows RDK software engineers to safely apply AI to automate tedious yet valuable code improvements, and we look forward to Permanence AI’s continued contributions to the community.”

The RDK community is comprised of more than 700 companies including CPE manufacturers, SoC vendors, software developers, system integrators, and service providers. Globally, RDK is deployed by dozens of service providers across North America, Europe, Latin America, and Asia. RDK software is available at no cost to RDK licensees, and RDK community member companies can contribute software changes and enhancements back to the community. Additional information about RDK is available at www.rdkcentral.com.
