AI agents are a new paradigm that requires a new programming language, just like in the past:

  • Hardware→Assembly
  • Operating Systems→Java
  • Web→Javascript
  • Agentic Coding→BAML

BAML is a language designed to prevent context pollution and churn when coding with AI. Every feature opts to prevent mistakes at runtime (like Rust), while maintaining the dynamism necessary for writing and running code (like Python).

In one sentence: BAML feels like TypeScript, but with better error handling, no any, and more.
