Your development cycle never sleeps.
Back in 2014, GSDware offered "relay development" - coders in different time zones passing the baton so your project moved around the clock. Now the mechanism has been replaced. AI-assisted development gives one senior engineer the throughput of a team, without the handoffs, the time-zone gaps, or the lost context.
What that means for you
- Days, not quarters. Working software on a timeline that used to be a kickoff meeting.
- Same-day iteration. Describe a change in the morning, review it in the afternoon.
- Senior judgment on every line. AI generates; an experienced engineer decides what ships.
- Small-team economics. You're not paying for a bench, a PM layer, or an office tower.
- Get stuff done. Engineering, not code poetry.
Burst capacity, still
The oldest GSDware pitch still holds: When your backlog outgrows your team, plug in experienced development capacity without a six-month hiring cycle. With AI tools like Claude Code and OpenCode, and using models like Fable and Kimi, that added capacity got a lot bigger.
The accounting angle
Third-party development can also simplify how you account for software costs. The rules changed in 2022 - Ask your accountant about Section 174. We can structure deliverables and invoices to make their job easy.
