// AI applied to critical systems
Squads of autonomous agents that build and modernize software for banks, payments and high-volume operations, with bank-grade security and a senior architect accountable for every delivery.
// 01 domains
We work where mistakes are expensive: money, data and availability.
// 02 the squad
Each agent has its own role, tools and exit criteria. Together they work like a senior team: in parallel, no queue, no pause.
Reads the existing code, breaks goals into tasks and defines contracts, patterns and boundaries.
mapping module dependencies
Several in parallel, in Java, TypeScript, Python and the stack you already use.
adding retry with backoff
Generates and runs unit, integration and regression tests on every change.
48 tests generated
Static analysis, exposed secrets, vulnerable dependencies and OWASP patterns.
SAST on 312 files
Rigorous code review: readability, architectural fit and maintainability.
reviewing PR #318
Pipelines, staging deploys, observability and automatic rollback.

Approves plans, makes the trade-offs and owns the delivery. Autonomous AI, human accountability.
// 03 how it works
A 24-hour cycle, with the plan approved by a human before execution and the delivery validated before it reaches your team.
A feature, a bug, a migration. In plain language, with your business context.
Agents break down the work; a human architect validates the approach.
Code, tests, review and security scans in parallel, nonstop.
A tested pull request that passed the Sentinel gates, ready when your team wakes up.
// 04 security
Autonomy without control is risk. Every agent action is scoped, logged and verified before it reaches your code.
Your credentials, with the minimum access needed, revocable at any time.
Every plan, decision and commit logged and traceable.
Nothing reaches the main branch without a person’s approval.
Work within the data rules and policies of your environment.

// 07 faq
An engineering team made of specialized AI agents (architect, developers, QA, security, reviewer and DevOps) working together and in parallel on your code, coordinated by a human senior architect.
No. Agents execute autonomously, but plans are approved by a senior architect before execution, and nothing reaches your main branch without human review.
Yes. Our architects come from financial and payment platforms at global scale, and the process was designed for environments with audit, compliance and data-privacy requirements.
Every change passes the four Sentinel Method gates (tests, security, performance and maintainability) before it becomes a pull request. Anything that fails goes back to the agents.
Agents work with least-privilege access, using credentials you control and can revoke at any time. Every action is logged and auditable.
It depends on scope and squad size. We start with a short assessment; then an architect sends a proposal with the recommended squad, plan and investment.
