Pioneering a New Approach to Software

AI-powered development with full human governance. Every line proposed by agents, reviewed by architects, approved by humans. Your project stays transparent from first commit to final deploy.

How We Build Software

Nine governed stages. Three autonomous agents. Full human oversight at every gate.

Context Ingestion

All client context — meetings, feedback, requirements — flows into a unified project graph.

Your Project, Fully Visible

Every client gets a real-time dashboard. No black boxes. No surprises. Watch your project move through every governed stage.

Context Ingestion In Progress

All client context — meetings, feedback, requirements — flows into a unified project graph.

Specification Upcoming

Architecture is defined in explicit specifications — readable, versionable, and diffable.

Agent Planning Upcoming

AI agents propose work plans within project constraints. Humans review before execution.

Architecture Review Upcoming

Human architects verify the plan aligns with system coherence and client requirements.

Agent Execution Upcoming

Agents execute within declared safezones, following the approved plan with bounded autonomy.

Quality Gates Upcoming

Automated tests, linting, type checking, and spec compliance verified at every checkpoint.

Human Review Upcoming

Comprehensive human review — functionality, architecture, quality, and compliance.

Client Preview Upcoming

Approved work staged in an isolated environment for client review and feedback.

Deployment Upcoming

Client-approved work deployed to production with full audit trail and rollback capability.

A Different Kind of Agency

Traditional Agency

  • Black-box development process
  • Updates only at scheduled check-ins
  • AI used without guardrails
  • Documentation delivered at the end
  • Scope creep from tacit assumptions
  • Knowledge lost at handoff

Rochefort Systems

Admissible Development
  • Every stage visible in real time
  • Continuous client portal access
  • AI agents governed by human oversight
  • Living specifications from day one
  • Explicit scope tied to specifications
  • Full context preserved in project graph

Admissible Development

A rigorous approach to software development that makes architectural knowledge explicit, machine-interpretable, and persistent.

Bidirectional Sync

Specifications and code maintain bidirectional sync. Change one, the other follows. No drift, no surprises.

Deterministic Derivation

All downstream artifacts are deterministically derived from specifications. Same input, same output. Always.

Invariant Governance

State transitions are governed by invariants. Only admissible states can be reached. Constraints are enforced, not hoped for.

Human Oversight

Agents operate under explicit human governance. Every structural change requires approval. Transparency is non-negotiable.

"Agents propose, humans approve, the system enforces."

Admissible Development eliminates the gap between intent and implementation. Specifications compile into a queryable knowledge graph — preserving not just what code exists, but why. AI agents query this graph for context, operate within governed boundaries, and never exceed their mandate.

Services

Every engagement follows the Admissible Development framework — governed agents, human oversight, full transparency.

Custom Development

Full-stack applications built with specification-driven architecture and governed AI agents.

  • Specification-first architecture
  • AI-accelerated implementation
  • Full human governance at every stage

Legacy Modernization

Analyze existing codebases, extract specifications, and modernize with preserved context.

  • Codebase analysis and specification extraction
  • Incremental modernization strategy
  • Zero-downtime migration paths

AI Integration

Integrate AI capabilities into your products with guardrails, governance, and reliability.

  • Governed AI agent workflows
  • Safezone-bounded AI access
  • Audit trails for AI-generated changes

Maintenance & Observability

Ongoing system health monitoring, performance optimization, and proactive maintenance.

  • Real-time system observability
  • Proactive issue detection
  • Continuous specification compliance

Trust Through Transparency

AI makes our team faster. Human governance makes the result reliable. Every safeguard is structural, not aspirational.

Every AI-generated change requires human approval before deployment

Full audit trail — every decision, approval, and rollback is logged

Client portal with real-time visibility into project status

Specifications are readable, versionable, and diffable — no black boxes

Safezone architecture ensures AI cannot modify stable boundaries

Quality gates at every stage with automated and human verification
