One dev team. Measurably faster with AI. In 90 days.
Your developers already use AI. The measurable gains are still missing. We transform one team of yours, with written success criteria and money back if we miss them.
The assessment takes 3 minutes. You get your team's level and a peer benchmark by email.
Trusted by engineering leaders in healthcare, cybersecurity, and enterprise software. As heard on Fraunhofer IEM and the AI Agents Podcast.
Everyone bought the tools. Almost nobody gets the gains.
The numbers from 2025 are blunt. AI adoption in software teams is nearly universal. Real, measured impact is rare.

The gap is not the models, and it is not the tools. It is habits, workflows, and organization. Licenses get you autocomplete. Everything beyond that is a transformation, and transformations don't run themselves.
Six levels of AI-assisted engineering.
Like driving automation, AI-assisted software development has defined levels. Knowing your level is the first step. Knowing you can't skip levels is the second.

Two hard truths
You can't skip levels.
Each level builds on the discipline of the one before: coding standards, CI/CD, review culture, test coverage. Level 4 on a Level 1 codebase produces expensive chaos.
Every level up is more organizational than technical.
Level 1 needs a legal sign-off. Level 3 needs shared standards. Level 5 needs new roles and new incentives. The technical effort shrinks per level. The organizational effort grows.
A path, not a pitch.
Each step stands on its own and earns the next one. Start with the free assessment, and stop whenever the numbers stop convincing you.

The Golden Team Program
From autocomplete to agentic engineering in 90 days.
We take one of your teams, 5 to 10 developers, and move them from AI-as-autocomplete to task-oriented agentic engineering: scoped ticket in, reviewed PR out.
Not training. Embedded change. Your workflows get redesigned around agentic delivery, your top developers become certified internal champions, and you get hard before and after numbers you can show your board.
At day 90 you have
- A team working agentically as the default
- 2 to 3 trained champions who carry the practice
- A production-grade AI setup that is an organizational asset, not a per-seat tool that walks out with people
- A measurement dashboard with your before and after numbers
- A written playbook for rolling the same transformation to your next teams
Success criteria, written into every contract
- 1 AI weekly-active usage above 70% of the team by week 6
- 2 PR throughput +15%, or more than 3 hours saved per developer per week, measured
- 3 Positive movement on at least 2 of 4 DX Core 4 dimensions vs baseline
- 4 AI code churn within 2 weeks below 8%, because speed without quality is theater
Measured, or your money back.
If we miss 2 of the 4 success criteria at day 90, you get 50% of the program fee back. That clause is in every contract we sign. It is also why we only run two programs at a time.

What engineering leaders say.
"We were using Claude Code but treating each session as a one-off, with no shared conventions across the team. Now we approach it as an orchestration model, not a coding assistant. The goal shifted from AI helps us code faster to AI handles implementation while we supervise architecture and outcomes."
Bryan Scown
Director of Software Engineering, Valant
"We save hours each sprint with dependable story refinements and test plans, without adding complexity to our workflow. Codeligence has been reliable and easy to work with."
Adam Lundqvist
CEO - Cybersecurity Company
"Working with Codeligence was completely uncomplicated. We were able to evaluate and start using AI technology quickly and with minimal effort. Getting started was effortless."
Tobias D. Kern
CEO - Digital Agency

We ship with agents daily
30 years of shipping software. Our methods come from our own production work with AI agents, not from a framework binder.
Measured, in writing
Baseline first, success criteria in the contract, before and after numbers at day 90. If we miss, you get money back.
Champions, not dependency
We convert your best developers into champions who carry the practice. The capability stays when we leave.
Vendor-neutral on tools
Claude Code, Codex, Copilot. We set up what fits your stack and measure what matters. We never sell tool training.
