Managed Code is an AI-native product studio that builds complete software products for founders and product teams. The studio runs only with senior engineers and designers, working with AI as part of every workflow, so a small team can deliver what a traditional eight-person crew used to, in a fraction of the time.

Every project runs as a fixed time block with a clear deliverable at the end. The AI Dev Team works in weekly sprints, with a Friday demo every week. The AI Design Team works in two-week blocks, ending with a Figma file and prototype ready for engineering. The AI Product Team runs four-to-six-week blocks, ending with the product live in production. Clients see real progress every week, communication is async-friendly, and there are no open-ended invoices.

Managed Code is based in France, with our team of senior engineers, designers, and QA distributed across Europe. We are a fully remote studio, so the actual location of any given team member rarely affects how a project runs.

Managed Code is small on purpose. The studio runs with a crew of senior engineers, designers, and QA specialists, scaling up only when a specific project needs more hands. The deliberate cap on team size is what makes direct contact with the engineers and designers actually doing the work possible, without account managers in the middle or junior staff learning on a client's dime.

Yes. Managed Code has been a fully remote studio from day one. Clients collaborate through shared repositories, Slack or Teams channels, weekly demos, and async-friendly documentation, so timezones do not block the projects we take on.

Managed Code works with non-technical founders, CTOs and VPs of Engineering, Heads of Product in regulated industries, and IT or Operations Directors who have been asked to bring AI into the company. The four studio products (AI Design Team, AI Dev Team, AI Product Team, and AI Discovery) cover the main starting points: needing design, needing engineering, needing the whole product built, or needing a plan before any of it.

The core stack is .NET and C# on the backend, with Node.js where the use case calls for it. The frontend is React, Vue, Angular, or Blazor depending on the project. Mobile work runs on .NET MAUI, React Native, Flutter, or native iOS and Android. For AI, the studio works with Claude, GPT, Gemini, Mistral, Semantic Kernel, and the Microsoft Agent Framework, alongside custom RAG pipelines built per project.

Yes. Managed Code maintains an open source organization on GitHub at github.com/managedcode, where the team publishes libraries and tools used in the AI and .NET ecosystems.
