Conventional
thinking says that one needs to know coding or be an engineer to create
an application. Engineer.ai proves it otherwise, getting Artificial
Intelligence (AI) to do the job, or at least most of it. Says
Sachin Dev Duggal,
CEO and founder of Engineer.ai, “I am an engineer and many like me
don’t want to do repetitive codes like Facebook login. We have to
utilise engineers to do the important things—like the logic and flow of
an application and actually thinking through a customer’s problem,” he
explains.
Engineer.ai treats app creation as an
assembly line production process. When an app needs to be designed, the
majority of it is done in the first couple of hours by the AI on his
platform. And then, software engineers (from a workforce of 26,000) work
on the little parts remaining to complete the app (like how technicians
fix a car’s chassis, engine and wheels in a car assembly line), thereby
leaving the repetitive work to AI and focusing on the creative parts
that actually need human attention. The AI in
Engineer.ai
platform, called the Builder, draws from a library of ‘Components’ to
build the repetitive blocks which have already been built before.
Some
60% of software is ‘Components’ which need not be done again. This
could be Facebook login or integration with an analytics provider,” says
Sachin Duggal.
The rest 40% is business logic and design. To do this, Engineer.ai
partners with a number of software companies from whom developers are
brought on board, depending on the complexity and features of the
project/apps that need to be delivered. The developers’ time do not
overlap with their original employers.
