The best software in the world is made by humans. Unleash your creative mind with a powerful process that keeps your brain engaged and your eyes fixed on the goal.
Your brain. Your code. Your achievement.
Amplify Human software.
Traditional software development can be painful: revolutionary changes, unnecessary cognitive load, and getting lost in the details. AI development has its own frustrations: disobedient AIs, unpredictable results, and sloppy code we continually have to fix.
We are building Easely to maximize the impact of human-centred craftsmanship, allowing you to stay engaged and in control.
Your Questions,
Answered
How does Easely work?
Easely aids the development process by embedding a powerful workflow into the IDE. You’ll discover the right changes to make on a faster timeline while reducing amount of bugs.
The Theory of Constraints tells us that it’s the critical constraint which determines the overall throughput of a system. Usually, that’s engineering. A lot of tools focus on the rate of the developer’s output, but not the correctness of that output. We don’t build a successful product by optimising the local maxima of code per hour. We do it by producing the right code in that hour. The right code is leaner and easier to maintain, which is the source of much of the development cost.
Easely accomplishes this by bringing the Mikado Method into your IDE. You’ll iteratively run small experiments to uncover learning units, which will direct your next steps. It will help you stay organised and minimise the changes you’ll need to make to get to the right place with less code to maintain.
How did you solve the AI problem?
It’s simple: we capitalise on the human mind and keep AI out of our tools. We believe that creativity belongs to humans! At Amplify, we draw boundaries around AI. We will not use it to do our creative work. We do the creative work.
Software developers have been led to believe that we are more productive with AI, as many “studies” have “shown”. Revealingly, those were studies which measured subjective self-reports; how they felt. Opinion is a notoriously bias-prone data stream. Our human nature comes with biases: it feels more productive because it takes less effort to offload our skilled work. In contrast, studies which took an objective look at the impact of AI found that those who used it had a decrease in brain activity and a reduction in productivity.
At Amplify, we fully embrace the skill of software development, which includes the practice of software development.
Without practice, skills atrophy. With practice, skills grow.
