About Gen-e2
While the market is still largely AI-augmenting delivery, we have reinvented the SDLC to be
AI First
. Our approach is a game-changer in productivity and quality, built on strong collaboration between
generative AI
and our best talents:
We now generate
95%
of the entire product — code, documentation, infrastructure as code, and even design — with
GitHub Copilot
.
The quality consistently exceeds the output of our best traditional engineering teams.
A product repository houses all product artefacts, giving AI full project context for higher-quality generation.
A library of rules and prompts defines coding standards, design principles, and security guidelines, ensuring enterprise-grade quality and scalability.
With Gen-e2, we deliver end-to-end products
2–3× faster
than traditional approaches, while raising the bar for engineering excellence.
