In today’s fast-paced development landscape, teams often struggle with turning feature ideas into well-documented, implementation-ready assets. Product Owners face challenges in breaking down requirements clearly, while developers lose time on repetitive documentation, unstructured planning, and missed technical steps. DevelopFAST bridges this gap by leveraging generative AI to transform raw feature inputs into structured stories, technical plans, test cases, and code—accelerating delivery and improving quality across the board.
Problem statement
Product Owners often miss key technical or functional details when breaking large features into smaller stories. Developers, on the other hand, may find documentation burdensome and often skip or inconsistently follow critical software development steps. This leads to fragmented delivery, missed dependencies, and lower code quality.
Key features
DevelopFAST uses a customizable, generative AI-powered engine to generate:
· User stories based on feature descriptions and acceptance criteria
·
Technical approach documents with architecture notes and security considerations
·
Test cases tailored to defined scenarios
· Three possible implementation approaches to guide decision-making
·
Auto-generated pseudocode and code snippets aligned with best practices
·
Seamless integration with enterprise code repositories and documentation portals
·
Chat history and sharing saves prior executions and allows sharing with teammates — improving collaboration and traceability
·
Embedded security standards and organizational checklists built into the code and documentation output
Solution details
· Groundedness testing ensures 60–80% similarity to source content from real implementations
·
Customizable templates to match your organization's delivery and documentation standards
·
AI pipelines for user story generation, formatting, pseudocode, and testing
· Plug-and-play integration with existing SDLC tools (e.g., Azure DevOps, Git, Confluence)
Case study
In a recent enterprise deployment, DevelopFAST helped streamline the entire SDLC pipeline:
| Impact area | Improvement |
|---|---|
| Feature breakdown | Structured user stories generated instantly |
| Bug resolution planning | Reduced from 5 hours to 30 minutes (~90% improvement) |
| Test case creation | Achieved ~50% time savings |
| Documentation consistency | Standardized across all tickets and tasks |
| Developer onboarding | Accelerated due to uniform, well-documented assets |
DevelopFAST accelerates the software development lifecycle by reducing cognitive load and automating key delivery artifacts. It begins with an AI-driven Reflection phase that interprets raw requirements and generates structured user stories and test cases. The system proactively identifies architectural considerations and surfaces unresolved technical questions for early clarification.
One of the platform’s key strengths is its ability to propose three unique solution approaches based on the problem context, enabling teams to compare and select the most effective path forward. Once an approach is chosen, DevelopFAST auto-generates pseudocode, design documentation, unit tests, and production-grade code.
This results in faster planning cycles, improved code consistency, and significantly reduced time to first commit.

Looking ahead
We're continuously evolving DevelopFAST to provide more control and adaptability. Here's what's coming next:
· Fully configurable admin panel to manage prompt logic, output sections, integration points, and user permissions from a central dashboard
·
"Help Me Write" mode to assist users in drafting user stories, test cases, or technical notes step-by-step
·
Persona-based output filtering to restrict outputs to Product Owner view, Developer view, or Architect view
