Overview

CODY Systems, legally Code Systems Corporation, is an American software company headquartered in Seattle, Washington. Founded in 2006 by Kenji C. Obata, the company is best known for its Turbo product line, which includes Browser Sandbox, Turbo Studio, TurboServer, and Turbo.net. The company initially developed Xenocode, an early application virtualization engine for Microsoft Windows, and later rebranded as Spoon in 2010 before adopting the Turbo name. Its technology packages conventional Windows applications into portable, virtualized formats that can be delivered as a single executable or streamed over the web, with files and settings synchronizing across devices via patented virtualization technology. The company offers free accounts that allow users to stream hundreds of brand-name applications without installation, as well as cloud storage. Turbo.net hosts an application library of free and open-source software, and Browser Sandbox enables cross-browser testing by running multiple browser versions on a single machine. The company is employee-owned and remains private.

History

Code Systems Corporation was founded in 2006 by Kenji C. Obata in Seattle, Washington. Obata, a Yale University graduate (1999) and former Microsoft development lead, returned to Seattle to grow the company after earning a Ph.D. in Computer Science from the University of California, Berkeley. From 2006 to 2009, the company developed Xenocode, one of the first application virtualization engines for the Windows platform, focusing on application deployment via preconfigured executables. In 2010, the company launched Spoon as a reintroduction of Xenocode's virtualization engines and became commonly known as Spoon. The company later rebranded its products under the Turbo name, with Turbo combining application and storage virtualization with web-based network and synchronization protocols, machine learning algorithms, and semistructured large data storage systems. Turbo.net hosts an application library and offers free accounts for streaming applications. The company is employee-owned and remains headquartered in Seattle.
