What happens when coding is no longer the bottleneck in product development?
This video is a demo of how we use AI agents internally at Abundly – both for coding, backlog management and release management. It’s a system of AI agents & human engineers working together, building on each other’s strengths. This not only enables us to release a new version of our platform every day, but also makes the work really fun, since we can focus on the higher level stuff (design/architecture/ux) and ship value every day.
For each agent I demonstrate what they do, what value they provide, and what we learned when making them.
• Cursor: writes most of the code
• Backlogger: turns messy Slack threads into clean, well-structured Notion tickets
• Releaser: manages our daily release process end-to-end: PRs, release notes, changelog, announcements
• Grace: a higher-level „colleague“ agent that handles stakeholder requests from Slack all the way to pull request, coordinating with Cursor and the other agents
This is of course only a snapshot in time – we are continuously learning and experimenting with how to use agents effectively, while still staying in control of architecture and quality.
