Mission

We don't sell AI tools.
We measure them.
In the dollars your board cares about.

Beliefs

Measurement, not marketing.

Mission

Built to answer a question that needed an honest answer

We started Backlight because the most important question in engineering — is this AI tool worth what we're paying? — had no honest answer. We built one.

Method

The data, unfiltered

We connect to the platforms your team already uses and surface what the numbers show. We do not smooth, score, or sell conclusions. You read the data; you decide.

Independence

We don't sell the tools we measure

Backlight has no commercial relationship with any AI coding vendor. That independence is the product. An honest benchmark requires an independent scorekeeper.

Company

Backlight is built by Accent Labs, Inc.
