The journey of AI software development

From first pilot to autonomous fleets, without losing the codebase

We help engineering organizations transform safely across three phases, holding Code Health to the 9.5 rule at every step of the journey.

9.5The 9.5 ruleThe bar every merge clears, end to end.

Phase 1

Pre-AI

No AI in production dev work or AI only in walled-off test teams.

The 9.5 rule

Code Health 8.1/ 9.5

Set your Code Health baseline and gate every merge before AI lands.

Govern & steer Assess AI readiness, set guardrails

Purpose

  • Define your productivity baseline
  • Prioritize technical-debt remediation
  • Gate your code at the 9.5 bar

Leadership tools

Risk

Risk without us Code health decline and being unable to adopt AI safely.

Customer proof

-32%critical hotspots

"We mapped our baseline and cleared a third of our worst hotspots before rolling out AI."

Phase 2

AI-Assisted

AI coding assistants in daily use, from team rollout to org-wide governance.

The 9.5 rule

Code Health 9.2/ 9.5

Hold every AI-assisted PR to the 9.5 rule, no drift, no exceptions.

Govern & steer Org-wide policies, gates & PR standards

Purpose

  • Safeguard AI-generated code
  • AI-assisted uplift of your code
  • Measure productivity performance

Developer tools

Leadership tools

Risk

Risk without us Up to 60% higher defect risk. Productivity gains hard to prove.

Customer proof

-38%time in code review

"Every AI-assisted PR now clears the 9.5 bar and review time fell by more than a third."

Phase 3

Agentic & Autonomous

AI agents take action across supervised, scoped tasks through autonomous fleets.

The 9.5 rule

Code Health 9.6/ 9.5

Bind autonomous agents to the 9.5 rule before any merge reaches main.

Govern & steer Steer agent fleets, trust calibration

Purpose

  • Safeguard & guide agents
  • Deploy and scale agentic workflows
  • Optimize AI performance & token spend

Developer tools

Leadership tools

Risk

Risk without us Degrading agent performance. Token spend climbs 25% to 50%.

Customer proof

-41%token spend

"We scaled supervised agent fleets and cut token spend while throughput kept climbing."
