A contract, not a wish
Before anything gets built, the task carries written acceptance criteria. “Done” means it meets what we agreed — not “it seems to work”.
Service
Autopilot — we develop your software, you make the calls
Autopilot is supervised software development as a service. We agree on scope and acceptance criteria, an agent factory does the work on our side, and you receive finished, verified changes — described so precisely that accepting one takes minutes, not hours.
This is not “a chatbot that writes code”. Every task passes independent verification: tests, scope control and a review by a second instance. Only what cleared every gate reaches your review desk — and the final “yes” is always yours.
Workflow
From task to acceptance
- 1. Task goal and acceptance criteria agreed in writing
- 2. Plan big asks split into measurable steps
- 3. Build in an isolated environment, no access to secrets
- 4. Verification tests + independent second reviewer
- 5. Your review change described step by step
- 6. Acceptance ships only after your “yes”
Warranties
What this factory guarantees
The builder is not the judge
Whatever gets built is checked by an independent instance: the full test suite, a second code review, and a scope check confirming the change stayed inside the agreement.
A trail you can audit
Every change leaves a chain: task → decisions → test results → review → your acceptance. Weeks later, you can see exactly why things are the way they are.
The last word is yours
No change enters your system without a human on your team accepting it. That is a safeguard that cannot be switched off “by accident”.
Two phases
Development is only half the job
Phase one — development
The full flow from task to acceptance: written criteria, isolated build, independent verification, your decision. This is how new features arrive.
Phase two — maintenance
The work does not end at deployment. The factory watches the system already living with you: error alarms, rotting tests, stuck integrations. When something breaks, it follows the same path as a new feature — reproduce, fix, verify, propose for your acceptance. Before anyone on your side spends an evening on it.
Self-healing
The factory also watches itself: when a failure appears on its own line, it does not wave a white flag — it repairs itself within a bounded retry budget, and if it cannot, it wakes a human with the case already written up. Your money never pays for pointless retries, and an incident never turns into weeks of silence.
Security
Guardrails, not guarantees-on-paper
Agents build in isolated environments with no access to your secrets, your production or your repository settings. They may change only the designated code, and only propose a change — they never approve one.
Automatic gates reject anything reaching protected areas: authentication, payments, configuration, data. And if the same task fails verification three times, the factory stops itself and a human takes over — your budget never burns on a fourth “maybe this time”.
Proof
We learn from our own failures — cheaper for you
One of our priciest lessons: a badly worded task in a trading system triggered 43 pointless build attempts in three hours. By the next day the factory learned to reject such tasks before they start — and to this day it receives a written “why not”, never silence. Every cost we absorbed on our own projects became a safeguard on yours.
Engagement
From demo to rhythm
Step 01
Demo
One live hour: a single task of yours → a verified change ready for review. No slides.
Step 02
Pilot
Two weeks, 3–5 real tasks from your backlog. Billed on delivered and accepted, not on “progress”.
Step 03
Rhythm
A steady task package, a weekly report with numbers: accepted, rejected, in flight — each with its proof. Pricing after the pilot.
