Meet the Team

Building the validation layer for AI-first engineering teams

We built GapTrap because we experienced the chaos firsthand. After 10 months developing the discipline and practicing Agentic Engineering in production, we learned that incomplete specs lead to AI hallucinations, wasted weeks and months, and broken production code. Engineers fill gaps in specs with experience, AI fills with hallucinations. Now we're solving this problem for every AI-first company.
