How we use AI in our own development process
How we use AI day to day
Our developers, designers, testers, and project managers use modern AI-assisted tools for planning, design, development, and testing. This results in higher quality and faster delivery. Every solution is still thoroughly reviewed, tested, and verified by experienced software developers and testers before delivery.
Our principle: AI supports our developers, it doesn't replace them
AI tools help our team work through repetitive tasks faster and catch certain issues earlier, but every architectural decision, every piece of business logic, and every line of code that reaches you has been reviewed by an experienced software engineer. Technology supports our developers. It does not replace their judgment.
Where AI plays a role in our process
- Faster development on standard, repetitive work, so our developers spend more time on the parts of your project that need real judgment and experience.
- Earlier detection of issues, automated checks that catch certain problems during development rather than after.
- More consistent code quality, helping maintain coding standards across a project.
This is true across the technologies we work with, ecommerce platforms, custom software, mobile apps, and AI integrations alike.
What doesn't change
- Every solution is reviewed, tested and verified by an experienced software engineer before it reaches you.
- Architecture and technical decisions are made by our developers and architects, not automated.
- Your Project Manager remains your single point of contact, with full accountability for what's delivered.
- Our commercial model doesn't change based on how a task gets built: Continuous Monthly Development and Fixed Price Projects work exactly as described on our service pages.

Commonly asked questions
Does using AI tools mean I get faster delivery or a lower price?
Our commercial model, Continuous Monthly Development and Fixed Price Projects, is built around predictable business value, not internal process detail. Care and Care Plus deliver the kind of ongoing output you’d expect from one experienced developer, backed by a whole team of specialists; Care Ultimate prices every task or group of tasks for your approval; a Fixed Price Project delivers an agreed scope at an agreed price. AI is one of the tools our team uses to work efficiently and maintain quality within that model.
Is my code or data used to train AI models?
We take data confidentiality seriously across every project. If you have specific requirements around data handling or confidentiality, raise them with your Project Manager and we’ll address them directly.
Does AI replace human review on my project?
No. Every solution is reviewed, tested and verified by an experienced software engineer before it reaches you, regardless of which tools were used to build it.
