PE portcos have invested heavily in AI. Many still can't show the return. The issue is usually altitude, not ambition. If a plan is set too high, you get mandates and no results. If it's set too low, you get tools with no enterprise impact. Andy McKinney explains where operating partners should aim instead, and how to reach AI conviction faster 👇 https://lnkd.in/gbfiddZc #PrivateEquity #AIStrategy #ValueCreation

We are excited to share that 3Pillar has achieved the Select partner tier in the Claude Partner Network Services Track! For our customers, this means more expertise and guidance on what to build with Claude, and how to build it well. Our Claude-certified team is already putting that to work, redefining the SDLC, enterprise workflows, and customer experiences. The Claude Partner Network is how Anthropic works with the firms that put Claude into production for customers. We're proud of this milestone, and we're just getting started.

We once talked to ten people just to find out who could approve a single process change. The initiative had executive backing, but no one who could actually say yes. That's where most AI workflows get stuck. The technology isn't the problem. Speed up a 2-day task in an 8-day process and you've gained almost nothing. Here's what to settle before you automate anything 👇 🔗https://lnkd.in/gCCnhPwE #AITransformation #WorkflowAutomation #AgenticAI

Proud to be part of the inaugural Google Developer Group Moldova, a new chapter for the local tech community! 🚀 Our Solution Architect Dorian Vicol showed how 3Pillar uses AI to transform software delivery, drawing on real-world lessons from our platform engineering work with The Telegraph. Three key takeaways he shared with ~30 local engineers and AI enthusiasts: 1️⃣ AI in architecture and governance: AI can do far more than generate code snippets. It can automate solution design, capture tribal knowledge, and power delivery pipelines through MCP. 2️⃣ HelixAI and the agentic SDLC: Continuous, AI-assisted workflows connect product discovery, planning, deployment, and feedback loops into one flow. 3️⃣ Elevating engineering leadership: When AI drafts the first pass of code and architecture, engineers can focus on context, critical trade-offs, and strategic ownership. Huge thanks to Chisinau Tech Talks, Abgar Simonean, and Gheorghii Mosin for organizing a fantastic launch. We're excited to see what's next for Moldova's developer community! 🌐 🎥 Watch Dorian's full talk: https://lnkd.in/gUMbwvEc #3PillarGlobal #GoogleDevConMoldova #ChisinauTechTalks #SoftwareArchitecture #AgenticAI #SoftwareEngineering #AIinTech #HelixAI

Most of what a business workflow does is deciding, and TypeSafe AI's Jev is the first model built to decide rather than write. Jev returns a typed decision with a calibrated confidence score in 70 to 500 milliseconds, at $0.042 per million input tokens. Our teams have run it across semantic classification, document routing and answer scoring, and it delivers fast, structured decisions at a cost and latency no LLM was going to reach. The confidence score is the larger story, because it lets a workflow automate the clear-cut cases and send only the uncertain ones to a person. In our new article by Pankaj Chawla and Lindsay Kloepping, ACC, we cover why routine decisions have been too expensive to automate at volume, why the confidence score matters more than the speed, how cheap calibrated confidence makes probabilistic knowledge graphs practical, and where Jev is already at work inside HelixAI.

Meet the leader who never had to look far to find his calling — Abdul Basit is our spotlight for this month! Having joined 3Pillar straight out of university, Abdul's journey as Product Development Director highlights what it means to lead with ownership—evolving from hands-on delivery into a strategic leader who drives AI-forward initiatives and mentors the next generation of talent. Swipe to see how he steered a healthcare industry client's team through a high-stakes, high-visibility scale-up, his approach to building an AI Pod that turns board-mandated priorities into production-ready delivery, and why he connects so well with the leadership and protective instinct of his "Lion" spirit animal.

A huge spike in code volume doesn't impress the board if feature delivery stays flat. When shifting to an AI-native SDLC, raw output is just a vanity metric. You need to track process effectiveness across 4 core domains: 🎯 Novel AI Quality & Zero Shot 📈 Flow & Cycle Predictability ⚡ Adapted DORA Standards ♣️ Defense & Risk Containment To bring it all together for executive leadership, we roll these into one composite metric: the Process Effectiveness Index (PEI). 📖 Read the full framework by Lance Mohring: https://lnkd.in/eFfWK7yP #AISDLC #SoftwareEngineering #AIinEngineering #DeveloperProductivity #TechLeadership

Measuring AI adoption by code volume explains almost nothing about whether AI is actually working. Real ROI requires tracking process effectiveness across 4 core domains: 🎯 Zero-Shot Quality: Code right on pass #1—no rework. ⚡ Flow Predictability: Pure engineering velocity. 📊 Adapted DORA: Metrics tuned for agentic queues. 🛡️ Risk Containment: Efficacy gates to block defects. The Executive Solution: Process Effectiveness Index (PEI) We combined these domains into a single score that gives leaders the hard data needed to prove AI ROI to the C-suite. 📖 Dive into the full framework by Lance Mohring: 👇 Read the full article here: https://lnkd.in/eFfWK7yP #AISDLC #SoftwareEngineering #AIinEngineering #DeveloperProductivity #TechLeadership

Such a great pleasure to have our CRO, Aneesh Devi, on the ground with our teams in Romania! We loved engaging in deep technical conversations, exploring AI-driven innovation, and showcasing the incredible culture that drives our work. Thank you for the visit! 🙌 #3PillarGlobal #Team3Pillar #Leadership #TechInnovation
Just left our offices in Romania - Cluj and Timișoara - and honestly still buzzing from it, the energy was infectious and invigorating! We've got such a sharp team out there, deep in the technical work and genuinely obsessed with getting it right for our customers. What stood out most is how foundational it is to experiment and be curious, especially related to AI. We are pushing the envelope on agentic SDLC with many of our customers. Can't wait to be back

One of our clients, a leader in the insurtech space, is transforming its entire SDLC around an agentic, pod-based delivery framework. Rather than treating AI SDLC adoption as a moonshot for overnight transformation, they’ve wrapped existing engineering workflows in a custom harness designed and tuned for their pods. It’s something we’re building upon progressively, with learning. The results are tangible. So far, we’ve successfully scaled from initial pilots to 6–7 active production pods with the target state AI SDLC in operation, with a strategic roadmap to expand to all 40+ pods within the organization. The goal is 100% agentic code generation by the end of the year, fundamentally shifting the role of their engineers from manual work to more judgement and SDLC governance. "The ROI is not simply that we did it faster," says the 3Pillar team. "The ROI is that we made a previously difficult-to-scale transformation possible and felt.” Check out the full discussion featuring insights from 3Pillar's Lindsay Kloepping, ACC (Head of Forward Deployed Practice) and Lance Mohring (Field CTO) on navigating agentic software development: 👇 Read the full case study Here! https://lnkd.in/e6cbBgZf #EngineeringLeadership #AITransformation #SoftwareDevelopment #AISDLC #ChangeManagement #TechStrategy #3Pillar
