AiDE: AI-Native Delivery Engine
The New Standard for Enterprise Software Delivery
AI changed how software gets built.
Delivery has to change with it.
Enterprises are spending heavily on AI development tools, agents, and token spend, but most still can’t prove what AI changed, what it cost, or whether delivery, quality, and business outcomes improved.
AiDE is a first-of-its-kind AI-native operating model for measuring, governing, & delivering software engineering outcomes in the agentic era.
AiDE connects user stories, engineering effort, code, AI usage, quality signals, token spend, and business features into one measurable delivery system, so you can prove AI’s contribution, track its cost, trace what shipped, see what survived into production, and measure the ROI created. With AiDE, you don’t pay for headcount, hours, or activity reports. You buy guaranteed Engineering Outcomes backed by contract. No rate sheets. No timesheets. No vague productivity claims. If we miss the agreed target, our performance fee is waived!
The Industry Trap
AI tools are faster.
Why is your spend the same?
Generative AI has exposed the flaw in traditional IT consulting: speed and efficiency are actively penalized. That makes the outdated hourly services model impossible to defend.
If an AI agent writes code in a fraction of the time, traditional software vendors are not passing those savings back to you. They’re padding their margins to maintain their headcount pyramids. You are paying an “AI premium” just to maintain the status quo. In an AI-accelerated world, billable hours are the wrong unit of value.
The Broken Time & Materials Equation
Incentivized Bloat
Vendors make more money when projects require more headcount and take longer to finish.
Paying for Effort, Not Outcomes
You carry 100% of the execution risk. If the vendor misses the sprint goal, you still pay for their hours.
The AI Pricing Paradox
Vendors use AI to do the work faster, but still charge you like nothing has changed.
AiDE fixes the equation: AI Productivity + Human Effort = Cost of Business Feature
That means delivery performance can be measured, governed, and tied to the outcomes the business actually cares about.
Absolute risk transfer
In traditional consulting, if a project is delayed, the vendor makes more money.
We think that’s fundamentally broken.
Traditional Models
T&M Contracts
- You pay for headcount, regardless of feature completion
- The vendor is financially rewarded for delays & inefficiencies
- You carry 100% of the financial & execution risk
Fixed Price Contracts
- You lock in a price before the work is fully understood
- Every new requirement, edge case, & priority shift becomes a costly change order
- Vendors are incentivized to protect margin & scope, not improve outcomes
The New Standard in AI-Native Delivery
The AiDE Guarantee
- You pay only for validated Delivery Units (DUs), configured around your target outcomes & throughput
- Work Units, Outcome Units, & cost baselines are defined upfront, so performance is measured against a clear standard
- Sprint velocity, defect rates, & cost efficiencies are contractually guaranteed — if we miss the target, our performance fee is waived
- AI token consumption, specialized agents, proprietary tools, developer tools, & frameworks are included.
No extra bills. No hidden tooling costs. No vendor theater.
Just measurable delivery performance with true outcome-based accountability.
Application Modernization & Migration
Challenges
Application Modernization programs often begin with incomplete knowledge and optimistic assumptions. Documentation is outdated. Dependencies are hidden. Technical debt is poorly understood. Feature parity between source and target environments remains uncertain until execution is underway.
- Migration risks emerge late in delivery
- Hidden dependencies create scope, timeline, and cost overruns
- Unknowns derail modernization initiatives
With AiDE
AiDE combines specialized modernization agents with insight; an intelligence platform to create a continuously evolving view of the application estate and migration journey.
- Builds a living knowledge graph of applications, dependencies, business rules, data flows, and technical debt
- Maps source-to-target feature coverage and identifies gaps, architectural mismatches, and migration risks before execution
- Generates evidence-based modernization strategies, risk plans, and objectively measures migration progress, quality, delivery velocity
Impact
- Up to 40% improvement in modernization productivity and delivery efficiency
- Up to 50% faster time-to-market
- Earlier identification of migration and go-live risks
- Higher confidence in source-to-target feature completeness
- Improved technical health, maintainability, and post-migration sustainability
Not mere hoopla & industry buzzwords
We provide a suite of agents & a proprietary
intelligence platform proven to deliver.
We walk the talk. See AiDE in action.
You can’t prove what you don’t measure,
& you can’t measure what you can’t see.
AiDE Insights is the real-time analytics intelligence platform that establishes a trusted baseline across AI contribution, human effort, quality, cost, and delivery outcomes. It connects your SDLC data into one view of engineering truth, showing what AI changed, what it cost, what held up, and where outcomes can be tied to business impact.
Executive ROI
Track AI spend per engineer, AI ROI multiple, durable value per dollar, and throughput lift against a credible baseline.
Engineering Health
Measure cycle time, deploy frequency, change failure rate, MTTR, AI-versus-human defect density, adoption mode by team, and team experience.
Delivery Ledger
Connect user stories, AI-assisted code, developer modifications, model usage, code survival, shipped work, rework, reversions, tokens, and cost per ticket.
Capacity Dashboard
See effort split by work type and AI mode, sprint velocity by team, PR review burden, and capacity versus commitment.
Token Accounting
Track spend month-to-date, quarter-to-date, and annualized FTE cost. See budget status, cost by team, model spend mix, and token, license, and infra allocation.
Data Quality
Monitor link-confidence distribution, source pipeline health, repo coverage gaps, unattributed AI sessions, and ingestion lag.
AiDE embeds specialized agents across the entire SDLC, turning every Delivery Unit into an intelligent orchestration layer for execution, governance, & control.
