The Second Coming of Al in the Software Development Lifecycle

The Second Wave of GROVE
Gen Al Tools for Developers is Coming

« Inthe last 2 years, Gen Al has transformed many processes - especially for
software engineers, with the revolution started by GitHub Copilot.

Our research suggests code generation is just the beginning, pointing to a
O future where Gen Al tools will greatly transform all aspects of software
organizations, across the entire software development life cycle.

© We believe the SDLC market is ready for more solutions, and that
now is the time to build them.
