AI-accelerated. Human-led.
AI-accelerated software, built responsibly
We combine the speed of AI with the judgement of experienced developers and the reliability of proven technology.
AI can write code in seconds. Writing the right code still takes discipline.
Secure, maintainable software that fits your business doesn’t come from a prompt. It comes from experienced people who know when to trust the tool and when to question it. We have been building software for our clients for ten years.
AI on its own
- Code that works in a demo, then breaks in production
- Guesswork about how your tools and systems actually work
- No tests, no review, no audit trail
- Quick to start, expensive to maintain
AI with Stratusolve
- Every change starts from an agreed specification
- AI applies our skills, best practices and project guidelines
- Extensively tested, then reviewed by experienced developers
- Built on foundations refined over ten years, so your system stays easy to maintain
Three things that make AI work for you
Good software practice
Every change is planned, tested and reviewed. On every project, AI works within our written development guidelines.
- Written guidelines that every AI agent follows
- Every change ships with automated tests
- Small changes that are easy to review
- Automatic style checks on every change
- New code checked against the conventions already in place
Proven technologies
We build on tried-and-tested tools that thousands of businesses already rely on. On top of them sits a foundation we have built and refined by hand over ten years, so every project starts well ahead.
- Widely used, well-supported building blocks
- A foundation of our own, hand-built and refined over ten years
- AI tools that check the official guides for the exact versions we use
- Reliable cloud hosting, with every update easy to roll back
- Projects planned and tracked in Divblox (opens in a new tab), our sister company’s delivery platform
Experienced guidance and design
After ten years of building software for our clients, experienced developers still own the architecture, the design and every decision. AI helps us get there faster.
- Ten years of building software for our clients
- Discovery and system design led by experienced developers
- People approve the architecture and any new third-party software
- Every change reviewed by AI and by a developer
- Design decisions made together with your team
How AI fits our delivery
AI speeds up every stage. Our team stays in charge of every one.
01Discover and design
Our experienced developers sit with your team to understand the processes behind the problem. AI helps us research and prototype quickly, and people make the design decisions.
02Plan
We agree the scope and write it down. Each project has written development guidelines that every AI agent must follow. They cover how the code is written, how it is tested and what needs human approval.
03Build
Our developers build on the foundations we have refined over ten years, working with AI coding agents that check the documentation for the exact versions we use. Every project gets a strong starting point and consistent code.
04Test
Every change comes with automated tests, and all the tests run again before anything is accepted.
05Review
An AI review catches issues early, then a developer reviews every change before it is accepted.
06Ship
Each release goes through testing and acceptance environments before it reaches production. Every release is recorded, so we can roll it back quickly if needed.
How we keep AI use responsible
These rules are part of how we work on every project.
People are accountable
AI makes suggestions and our team makes the decisions. Every change that ships has a developer who understands it and takes responsibility for it.
Least privilege for AI
AI agents can see the state of production systems to help diagnose issues, but they can’t change them.
Nothing ships unreviewed
Changes pass automated tests and are reviewed by AI and by a developer before they reach production.
Fully auditable
Every release is recorded and versioned, so we can always see what changed and roll it back if needed.
Transparent about AI
AI-assisted work is marked in our commit history, so it’s always clear how a change was made.
Your data, handled with care
Client data and credentials stay out of AI tools unless you’ve agreed otherwise, and we only use business-grade AI services.
Proven technology, chosen to last
We choose technology carefully, so what we build today is still easy to run, change and support years from now.
We build on technology that thousands of teams already run in production. Most problems have been solved before, and the solutions are well documented.
Questions we hear
Will AI build my software?
No. Our team builds it, with AI as one of our tools. AI speeds up research, testing and review, but people own the architecture, the design and every change that ships.
Does using AI make projects faster?
Yes. AI takes on a lot of routine work, and our established foundations mean we never start from a blank page. More of the effort goes into what matters most: understanding your processes and getting the design right. We scope every engagement with you up front, so you know what to expect.
Is my data safe when you use AI?
Yes. Client data and credentials stay out of AI tools, and every change is reviewed by an experienced developer before release.
Can you help us use AI in our own business?
Talk to us. Automated workflows, connected data and real-time dashboards are what we build every day, and they are often where AI can add the most value next.
