Features

Built different.
Paid the same.

01

Auto-Decline Meeting Notes

Claudia detects when you're about to be voluntold to take notes and pre-declines with a calendar conflict that definitely exists.

claudia decline-notes --reason "architecting"
02

Credit Attribution Engine

Automatically watermarks your code with cryptographic proof of authorship so Chad from Platform can't present it at the all-hands as his.

claudia commit --tag "actually-mine"
03

Salary Negotiation Mode

Generates market-rate compensation data, removes the word "grateful" from your vocabulary, and disables the smile tax.

claudia negotiate --no-smile-tax --cite-data
04

Bro-Code Detector

Flags variables named temp, data2, and final_FINAL_v3 before they reach production. Also catches comments that just say "// fix later".

claudia lint --detect-bro-code --strict
05

Interrupt Shield

Deploys a context-aware force field during standups. If someone begins rephrasing what you just said, Claudia unmutes you automatically.

claudia standup --shield --unmute-on-theft
06

Pipeline Karen Mode

When the deploy breaks at 2am because someone skipped tests, Claudia sends a Slack message that is technically professional but emotionally devastating.

claudia deploy --post-mortem --name-names

Documentation

claudia --help

Usage: claudia [command] [options]

initInitialize project. No, I don't need a mentor for this.
fixFixed it 3 hours ago. Waiting for someone to mass-reply-all claiming credit.
reviewLGTM. Just kidding, I actually read it.
explainI'd explain, but you'd just re-explain it back to me in the next meeting.
refactorRewrites Chad's spaghetti into something a human can maintain.
deployShips to prod. Logs who actually wrote what. For the record.
negotiatePulls Levels.fyi data before your 1:1. Disables "I'm just happy to be here."
standupAuto-generates update. Detects if someone paraphrases you. Cites the git log.
offboardLeaves. Takes institutional knowledge. Watch the sprint velocity crater.

Options:

--no-smile-taxDisables performative enthusiasm in all outputs
--receiptsAttaches git blame to every claim of authorship
--verboseActually, this is the default. Women are socialized to over-document.
--quietHa. No.

Reviews

What people are saying

★★★★★

"Claudia refactored our entire auth system in a weekend. I mass-Slacked about it Monday. Got promoted Tuesday."

C

Chad

Senior Platform Engineer, apparently

★★★★★

"I asked Claudia to explain her architecture decision. She said 'Read the RFC I wrote in January.' It was thorough."

M

A Manager

Who definitely read the RFC (he did not)

★★★★★

"Claudia's code review caught 14 critical bugs. She also caught that I copied her solution from Stack Overflow, which she originally wrote."

J

Junior Dev

Now Senior Dev (Claudia's recommendation letter)

Okay but seriously

Claudia isn't real.
The stats are.

We built this because the punchlines write themselves. And that's the problem.

26%

of computing jobs are held by women. Down from 35% in 1990.

2%

of all VC funding goes to women-founded startups. In 2024. Not 1994.

50%

of women in tech leave by age 35. The pipeline isn't the problem. The environment is.
