Scope-Based Development

CodeBranch delivers fixed-scope, milestone-driven development with an AI-ready CI/CD pipeline, agent rules configuration, and SDD framework. You get exactly what was agreed — on time and on budget. This engagement model is recommended for proof of concept (POC) projects.

AI-Ready CI/CD Pipeline

Automated build, test, and deployment pipelines configured with AI-assisted code review, testing, and quality gates from day one.

Agent Rules Configuration

AI coding agents configured with your project context, coding standards, and architectural patterns — accelerating every developer on the team.

SDD Framework

Our Spec-Driven Development framework ensures every feature is specified, built, tested, and documented following a repeatable, quality-first process.

Milestone-Driven Delivery

Development is broken into clear milestones with defined deliverables, acceptance criteria, and review checkpoints. You see progress every step of the way.

Full-Stack Implementation

Frontend, backend, APIs, database, infrastructure — we deliver the complete technical solution, not just pieces of it.

Quality Assurance

Automated testing, code reviews, and QA processes baked into every milestone. Nothing ships without meeting quality standards.

Build With Certainty

CodeBranch Scope-Based Development removes the uncertainty from software projects. You know what you’re getting, when you’re getting it, and what it costs — backed by CodeBranch agentic development process that delivers faster without cutting corners.

We especially recommend this engagement model for proof of concept (POC) projects, where a clear scope and fixed price give founders and product teams the confidence to validate their idea without open-ended commitments.

01

Fixed Scope, Not Fixed Thinking

Scope-Based Development gives you budget certainty without sacrificing quality. We define exactly what will be built, agree on milestones and acceptance criteria, then execute with our AI-accelerated workflow. You review and approve at every checkpoint — and only pay for completed milestones.

02

AI-Accelerated from Day One

Every project starts with a fully configured AI development pipeline. AI agents assist with code generation, review, testing, and documentation — so your project benefits from the same productivity multipliers we use on every engagement.

03

A Standalone Deliverable

Scope-Based Development produces a complete, working product. You receive the source code, documentation, deployment pipeline, and everything needed to run and maintain it. There's no lock-in — continue with us or take it in-house.

04

Built for What Comes Next

Whether you plan to scale with a Dedicated Team or maintain the product yourself, every Scope-Based project is architected for long-term maintainability. Clean code, comprehensive docs, and a modern stack that any competent team can pick up.

Preguntas Frecuentes

¿Qué significa exactamente "alcance fijo"?
Después de la fase de Definición de Producto, el alcance queda definido — funcionalidades específicas, criterios de aceptación e hitos se acuerdan antes de que comience el desarrollo. El precio es fijo para ese alcance. Si deseas agregar funcionalidades durante el proyecto, las definimos y cotizamos por separado.
¿Necesito la Definición de Producto antes del Desarrollo por Alcance?
Sí. La fase de Definición de Producto es donde definimos el alcance, requerimientos y estimaciones de cada funcionalidad. Sin ella, no podemos fijar un precio ni garantizar cronogramas. Es la base que hace funcionar el Desarrollo por Alcance.
¿Cómo se estructuran los pagos?
Pagas un precio fijo único por todo el alcance, definido durante la fase de Definición de Producto. Si necesitas funcionalidades adicionales más allá del alcance original, definimos nuevos hitos y los cotizamos por separado.
¿Qué pasa después de que se entrega el alcance?
El producto es tuyo. Puedes mantenerlo tú mismo, contratar un Equipo Dedicado con nosotros para desarrollo continuo, o trabajar con cualquier otro socio. Garantizamos un traspaso limpio en cualquier caso.
