JAKARTA - GitLab Inc's shares jumped more than 35% on Tuesday 6 June after the software development platform announced plans to launch artificial intelligence-based (AI) products that will increase revenue.

GitLab, which is widely used by software developers for programming work, will add the "ModelOps" feature to its main "DevSecOps" platform with new capabilities including codewriting suggestions. This product is expected to launch this year at a price of 9 US dollars (Rp 140 thousand) per month, GitLab said on Monday night, June 5.

"This product... has the potential to drive healthy growth in the FY25," wrote Bank of America analyst Koji Ikeda in an investor note.
