Anicet Nougaret is a founder and CEO with eight years of engineering experience building developer tools and agentic programming at the frontier of IDEs. He founded Ascii to reimagine the IDE experience after serving as Ascii’s CTO and co-founding multiple startups focused on intuitive 3D modeling and web/mobile products. His background blends production-grade full-stack engineering, data science and performance optimization—at ESA he sped an astronomical pipeline from a day to an hour and processed billions of trajectories in weeks. He’s taught computer science project-based to learners from age 12 to university level, demonstrating a talent for making complex topics accessible. Based in Paris, he pairs academic training from INSA Lyon and international study in AI with a hands-on entrepreneurial drive to ship developer-facing platforms. A detail that often surprises collaborators: he couples deep algorithmic optimization skills with user-centered product work, from accessibility-first mobile apps to next-gen IDE ergonomics.
