Twitter has acquired TenXer, a software startup that helps companies manage their engineering projects. Twitter plans to use the tech internally versus offering it up to developers as it has done in the past with acquisitions like Crashlytics. The TenXer product will be shut down, which means Twitter is likely going to fold the tech into its existing workflow. TenXer CEO Jeff Ma tweeted the news Thursday morning, which was first reported by VentureBeat; a Twitter spokesperson declined to comment on deal terms.

Will you support Vox’s explanatory journalism?
Most news outlets make their money through advertising or subscriptions. But when it comes to what we’re trying to do at Vox, there are a couple reasons that we can't rely only on ads and subscriptions to keep the lights on.
First, advertising dollars go up and down with the economy. We often only know a few months out what our advertising revenue will be, which makes it hard to plan ahead.
Second, we’re not in the subscriptions business. Vox is here to help everyone understand the complex issues shaping the world — not just the people who can afford to pay for a subscription. We believe that’s an important part of building a more equal society. We can’t do that if we have a paywall.
That’s why we also turn to you, our readers, to help us keep Vox free. If you also believe that everyone deserves access to trusted high-quality information, will you make a gift to Vox today?
