Transforming how we deliver
digital solutions

At Imaginary Cloud, we believe great software is about what you build. But it’s also about how efficiently and reliably you bring it to life. That’s why we’ve embedded AI-enabled support into every stage of our software development lifecycle.

By combining human expertise with the power of AI, we’re able to deliver better products in less time, helping you reduce costs, reach the market sooner, and gain a competitive advantage, all without compromising on quality.

SOFTWARE INTEGRATION

Why AI in
software delivery matters

Digital transformation is moving faster than ever, and businesses need partners who can keep pace. Traditional development methods can be slowed down by:

[画像:Improve Code Quality icon]
Manual, repetitive coding and testing
[画像:Transparency icon]
Limited visibility into project risks
[画像:clock icon]
Time-consuming design iterations

Our AI-supported approach tackles these challenges head-on, ensuring fewer delays, smarter decisions, and consistently high-quality results.

How we use
AI across the lifecycle

How we useAI across the lifecycle

Many talk about AI. We build with it. At every stage. We use it actively within our teams to accelerate and enhance every stage of your project.

Blue circular icon with the number 1 inside.

AI as a support tool for development

AI-powered assistants can help developers by suggesting code snippets, identifying potential errors, improving documentation, and generally making the coding process faster and smoother - all while developers remain actively involved in writing the code.

Blue circular icon with the number 2 inside.

AI as a code generator to be refined by the team

Some AI solutions can generate entire applications, producing a full codebase as output. Our developers then step in to finalise the application - fixing bugs, adding features that AI couldn’t handle, and polishing the final product to meet enterprise-grade quality standards.

our aDp process

our
aDp process

We develop your product by combining manual expertise with AI-assisted code generation, tailored to your requirements and technology capabilities.

Across the entire software lifecycle, we follow the Agile Development Process - a proven framework that promotes collaboration, adaptability, and continuous improvement. This approach enables us to deliver high-quality software efficiently and on time, while ensuring that your evolving needs remain at the centre of development.

backlog
1. product backlog
2. sprint backlog
3. sprint backlog

The product backlog is a list of project goals and contains what is forecasted to be developed by the development team, and maintained by the Product Owner. It is a living document, updated continuously, prioritized, and ordered by business value. It may also have product improvements, bugs, technical questions, and so on. Its purpose is mainly to have everything that is needed to reach the project’s Product Vision.

In this stage, we also create a sprint backlog, which is a list of tasks that need to be completed during each sprint. We prioritize the user stories for each sprint and ensure that the team knows what they need to work on.

With the sprint backlog in place, the development process finally starts - sprint execution. Working through the sprint backlog, and delivering small usable pieces of software frequently allows for continuous feedback and refinement, ensuring that the product is always on the right track.

BOOTSTRAP
1. briefing
2. high-level architecture
3. CI/CD workflow
4. Feature 0

In this stage, we put in place a briefing that includes the information gathered during the workshop with the team and stakeholders. It presents the vision and goals of the project and clarifies all necessary business requirements. This is also where an FAQ session relative to the nature of the project takes place.

The high-level architecture involves the development of the technical design, with the ideal balance between complexity and reach, This is where we identify external dependencies from third-party providers, such as Stripe, Facebook, Amazon, and so on.

We then start the CI/CD workflow which is the setup of the issue management tool, code repositories, continuous integration system, and development & staging environments. It’s followed by the setup of the code repo and automated test framework, the staging environment and production servers, as well as the continuous integration ecosystem (i.e. servers, deploy hooks, etc)/continuous deployment.

Finally, in Feature 0 we deliver the first meaningful feature: a homepage, a login screen, part of the first dashboard... This step ensures that there is something demonstrable with the perception of value at the end of the Bootstrap Phase.

wave 0
1. data model
2. Poc, mtp or mvp
3. viability assessment

With the Data Model, we provide the first baseline of the product’s evolutive data model. It identifies the main data entities and relationships and baselines the data sources and data stores (i.e. relational databases, document data stores, etc.). This step also consists of iterating the product concept and designing the first version of the data model.

Here’s when we present the Proof Of Concept (PoC), Minimal Testable Product (MTP), or Minimal Viable Product (MVP), and we deliver and deploy the first version of the product - even if that version is the implementation of a concept. This helps mitigate technical risks and test the main business premises for developing a market-ready version through a viability assessment.

wave in
1. production increments
2. wave retrospective reviews

On the production increments step, we review technical and business risks and the impact of the PoC, MTP, or MVP on the initial premises or Wave 0. Here, we also identify reusable components from Wave 0 to Wave 1 (i.e. often PoCs are not reusable). This helps gather feedback about the first integrated model and assesses the product's viability before moving to Wave 1.

Finally, the wave retrospective reviews the product state, evaluates wave success against business goals, and identifies improvements. We then design goals for the next wave & prioritize features. Doing this allows the team to analyze the work that has been done in previous sprints and plan consciously what should be the next mountain to climb.
