Breakthroughs in agentic coding
Our AI Steering Group continuously evaluates new tools and refines how we build software, seeking new ways to increase both our speed and quality.
Over the past few months, we’ve rolled out an AI-assisted delivery workflow that is already driving major efficiency gains across client projects. By reducing time spent on documentation, administration, and setup, our teams can focus more on solving real business problems and shipping production-ready features.
Our process starts with a lightweight feature brief and clear requirements. From there, our AI workflow helps generate the materials needed to move quickly and safely, including user flows, implementation notes, and draft code. Engineers and Product Managers remain fully in control by validating decisions, refining logic, reviewing outputs, and ensuring everything meets production standards.
The result is a delivery approach that:
- Delivers working software faster
- Reduces repetitive setup and handover work
- Improves consistency and quality across teams
- Allocates more effort to features and outcomes, not overhead
Our core AI toolstack includes Cursor, Lovable, Granola, Figma MCP, Confluence MCP, and Mermaid.
Highest-performing teams within scaling product organizations
Over the past year, we’ve had the greatest impact by partnering with growth-stage startups from Series A to D. We support CTOs and CPOs who define and execute ambitious product roadmaps.
Today, our teams are embedded within five high-growth US companies that have collectively raised over $1.5B in funding. We help them move faster, scale effectively, and deliver critical product outcomes. The consistent feedback we receive is that our teams operate as the highest-performing units within their product organizations!
Building this level of execution, trust, and leverage for product leaders is central to our mission, and we’re energized by the results.
