About HIC AI

HIC = Humans In Charge.

We enable human developers to thrive by giving AI agents the tools they need to be better assistants. Mouse is our flagship product: a precision file-editing toolkit that makes AI coding agents more accurate, efficient, and trustworthy.

Our Vision

HIC stands for Humans In Charge. We believe humans and AI agents should work collaboratively, guided always by the principle that humans remain in charge of all critical decisions.

AI agents assist in building and overseeing automated workflows, relieving humans of burdensome and routine tasks while helping achieve their intended goals. By giving AI agents precision tools that actually work, we make AI-assisted development reliable enough that humans can trust agents with bigger tasks, review their work efficiently, and stay in charge of what matters.

Where We're Headed

Now: Mouse

Precision file editing for AI coding agents. Coordinate-based addressing, atomic batching, full rollback, columnar operations.
