One platform for the full governed SDLC.
From brief to traceable code, expandev gives every step of the software development lifecycle an owner, a lineage, and an architecture to live inside.
How it flows
Four governed stages. AI executes inside the loop. Humans own the loop.
- 01
Declare
Intent, scope, business rules — stated by humans, item by item.
- 02
Structure
Architecture as a contract — stacks pinned, libraries sanctioned, layers declared.
- 03
Generate
AI generates inside declared boundaries. Quality Gate rejects violations.
- 04
Trace
Every line linked to a requirement, a decision, and a human approver.
Six capabilities. One governed SDLC.
Each capability is a pillar of governed AI software development — with a dedicated page describing what it does, what's inside it, and where it surfaces in the product.
Context & FinOps
One governed surface for LLMs. Project-scoped context, metered consumption, no Shadow AI.
Spec-Driven Requirements
Intent becomes a versioned, reviewable artifact — before a single line of code is generated.
Architectural Compliance
Architecture stops being a guideline. The platform reinforces it on every generation.
Code Provenance
Every line traces back to a requirement, a decision, and a human approver. No orphan code.
Impact & Sync
Any change triggers a three-dimensional impact analysis. Concurrent users stay aligned, not fragmented.
Continuous Auditing
Every decision and human–AI interaction, written to immutable timestamped logs. Audit-ready by default.
Plugs into the systems you already run.
Git providers
GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket repos and PRs surface as governed artifacts inside the Development workspace.
IDEs
VS Code, JetBrains, and Cursor. The governed surface follows the developer where they work.
Use the frontier. Govern the output.
Multi-model and customer-selectable. Bring the model your security team approved, expandev governs how it is used. Model selection, project-scoped context, and DVU metering are covered by the Context & FinOps capability.
