Score: 6.5/10 (Innovation: 7, Technical: 8, Documentation: 6, Utility: 5)

Drift is a programming language and transpiler that lets you write LLM agents using English-shaped declarative blocks, which are then compiled into async Python. Its innovative combination of intent verbs, confidence-gated branching, and parallel fan-out with a typed runtime makes it a novel approach to agentic AI development, though it's still in alpha with limited adoption.

Target audience: backend devs, ai engineers
