What is AI-native software engineering?
AI-native software engineering is software development where AI models and agents take part in how software is planned, built, tested and shipped, under human review. It is how Scrums.com builds custom software, web and mobile apps, platforms and the systems behind them: faster, and checked by senior engineers at every step.
Every Delivery Plan runs this way inside the Software Factory.
Choose a software development service
Every service runs as scoped workstreams in the Software Factory, on the same Delivery Plan and backlog. Each page carries its scopes, fit and pricing.
Software development scopes you can queue
200+ fixed-outcome scopes across every service, on one Delivery Plan and one backlog. Queue a few here, browse the full scopes catalog, or describe your own.
Accessibility Audit & Remediation
Test a live product or website for accessibility defects against WCAG and fix an agreed set of issues — with evidence you can stand behind.
Accounting Platform Integration
Automate invoices, payments, customers, journals, or reconciliation data between your systems and an accounting platform. Finish state: the books updating themselves for the defined flows.
Acquisition Tech Diligence
Investor-grade technical due diligence on a target codebase and team: AI-powered code analysis plus expert review of architecture, security, scalability, and engineering process — delivered as an investor-ready report on deal timelines.

Why our AI-native software engineering is different
Most teams bolt AI tools onto an old way of working. Scrums.com runs every Delivery Plan with senior engineers and AI agents built into planning, coding, review, testing and release, so software ships faster and keeps working long after launch.
Production needs engineering, not a handoff
Models change, prompts drift and embeddings go stale. The engineers who built your system maintain it, with hallucination rate, latency and token cost tracked from sprint one.
Compliance built in, not bolted on
Data residency, PII handling, prompt-injection defences and audit logging, aligned with SOC 2, GDPR, POPIA and ISO 27001 where applicable.
Integrated with your stack
REST and GraphQL layers, vector databases, event-driven workflows and streaming UIs, built to your existing SDLC and pipelines.
One gateway for every agent
Every agent deploys through the AI Agent Gateway: central governance, access control, audit trails and performance monitoring.
Implementation, then optimisation
Specialists implement agents, train your engineers and keep tuning configurations, so automation gets better over time.
Models, stack and integrations
Chosen on your performance, cost and compliance needs, not vendor agreements.AI-native software development by industry
Compliance, data sovereignty and audit obligations change the architecture. Our engineers ship AI into regulated environments where those constraints are not optional.

AI development questions, answered
Still deciding? Talk to sales and get a scoped answer for your use case.
The Software Factory is how Scrums.com delivers software. Senior engineers and AI agents work together on one prioritised backlog: agents draft code, tests and reviews, and engineers own the design and review every change before it ships. Every Software Factory Delivery Plan runs this way.
AI-native software development is software engineering where AI models and agents take part in planning, coding, testing, code review and release, under human review. Scrums.com uses it to build custom software, web and mobile apps, APIs and platforms faster, with senior engineers accountable for the result.
No. AI-native software development is how the software gets built, whatever the software is. Building AI itself, such as LLM products, retrieval systems and AI agents, is covered by the Scrums.com Generative AI Development and AI Agent Development services. Both run on the same Delivery Plan and backlog.
Custom software, web applications, mobile apps, APIs and integrations, data pipelines and analytics, UI/UX design, QA and test automation, DevOps and cloud infrastructure, application modernization and ongoing maintenance, plus generative AI features and AI agents when you need them.
When your backlog is bigger than your team, when manual QA, slow releases or code-review queues hold you back, or when you need senior engineering faster than you can hire it. It is not the right fit when a narrower answer is cheaper: rules-based work suits custom software development, an unproven AI idea suits a focused proof-of-concept scope, messy data needs data engineering first, and a single skill gap suits a dedicated team or individual hire.
One managed team, one prioritised backlog and one predictable monthly price. You can queue unlimited requests; one active workstream delivers them in the order you set. Add custom software, AI, backend, web, mobile, data or DevOps work to the same backlog at any time.
The Delivery Plan starts at $4,500 a month for one active workstream on launch pricing, down from $8,000, excluding VAT. Scope sets the schedule, not the price. For several workstreams in parallel or complex requirements, talk to Scrums.com sales.
Onboarding starts at checkout. Coding starts within 48 hours of access to your repositories and tools, and the team builds your first agreed deliverable within 14 days, or your first month is free.
AI agents handle repeatable steps such as first drafts of code, tests, documentation and review comments. Senior engineers set the architecture, make the decisions and review every change, so 100% of shipped work is human-reviewed. You see every request, agent run and release on the Scrums.com Platform.
You can queue unlimited requests on your backlog. One active workstream means one prioritised piece of delivery work progresses at a time; it is scoped into tasks and milestones, built, tested and reviewed before the next priority starts. Larger needs run on parallel workstreams.
You do, 100 percent, from day one. Code, designs, tests and documentation ship into your repositories. No licence fees and no lock-in.
Access control, audit logging and secure development practices are built in from the first sprint and aligned with SOC 2, GDPR, POPIA and ISO 27001 where applicable. Every AI agent we use runs through the AI Agent Gateway, with access control and audit trails.
Yes. Choose from 200+ fixed-outcome scopes, such as an MVP build, an integration or a modernization sprint, in the AI development scopes catalog, or describe your own. Scopes run on the same Delivery Plan and backlog.
The same plan keeps your software healthy: monitoring, fixes, security patches, performance work and new features, prioritised on your backlog.
