Engineering studio · since 2009

Senior engineers, multiplied by AI — with full accountability.

A small team of senior engineers, each paired with an AI agent network. We ship product roughly 10× faster than traditional teams — without skipping code review, security audits, or ownership of the result.

Why this works

Code itself is no longer the product — anyone with Claude can write code. What you hire us for is the people deciding what to build, what to verify, and who is responsible when it ships.

How AI changes our work — and where humans stay in charge

Six steps from discovery to operate. For each step we publish what an AI agent runs autonomously, what the human engineer owns, and how we verify the AI did not hallucinate.

Step 1
AI agent

Drafts a structured requirements doc from the call transcript, suggests edge cases.

Human engineer

Senior product engineer interrogates the goals, removes scope, signs the doc.

Verification

Sign-off captured as a commit on the spec repo; nothing is built without it.

Step 2
AI agent

Generates candidate task breakdown, estimates, dependency graph.

Human engineer

Senior re-orders by risk, kills nice-to-haves, sets weekly demo milestones.

Verification

Public sprint plan in your tracker; we report against it daily.

Step 3
AI agent

Writes the first draft of code, tests, and migrations off the spec.

Human engineer

Senior reviews each PR line-by-line, rejects anything they cannot explain.

Verification

Two-key rule: AI proposes, human merges. No exceptions.

Step 4
AI agent

Runs static analysis, dependency audit, secret scan, security review on every PR.

Human engineer

Senior triages findings, fixes them or accepts risk with a written note.

Verification

CI report on the PR; you can see it any time without asking us.

Step 5
AI agent

Pre-deploy: regenerates changelogs, drafts rollback plan, dry-runs migrations.

Human engineer

Senior approves rollout, watches the dashboard during the staged release.

Verification

Rollout marked in a public log; first failure rolls back inside one minute.

Step 6
AI agent

Tail-watches logs and metrics, opens issues for anomalies it spots.

Human engineer

Senior owns the incident — wakeable, named, and accountable.

Verification

Post-incident review published; what AI caught, what it missed, what we fixed.

Engagements, not "developer rentals"

Pick the scope you need. Each engagement is run by a senior engineer end-to-end — never resold to a junior pool.
