SOLUTION
Agentic Software Delivery
Build and release enterprise software efficiently with AI agents working across planning, design, engineering, testing and deployment — without losing context, code quality or control.
What is Sapient Slingshot?
Sapient Slingshot is an enterprise AI software development platform built for modernization and new software delivery. It integrates with existing development tools, cloud platforms and LLMs, with agents that support the full software delivery lifecycle. An enterprise context graph carries business, domain and technical context across multi-agent delivery workflows.
Agent orchestration across the software delivery lifecycle
Requirements and backlog
- Analyze and prioritize requirements
- Generate epics, stories and acceptance criteria
- Identify dependencies, risks and downstream impacts
Architecture and development
- Generate architecture and technical documentation
- Create, explain, review and refactor code
- Develop applications and APIs
Quality engineering
- Generate test scenarios, test data and automation code
- Support functional, security and performance testing
- Analyze regression impact, defects and release readiness
Deployment and operations
- Generate infrastructure code and deployment scripts
- Support CI/CD pipelines and release documentation
- Carry context into monitoring and support

Client examples
Retail banking
Piloted an agentic software delivery factory for a large financial services organization building a next-generation digital platform. Slingshot automated backlog analysis, API specification, code generation, quality review and testing, generating one API every 25 minutes at 80% accuracy.
Quick service restaurant
Transformed QA for a global QSR organization into a repeatable, ready-to-scale capability. Slingshot automated 100% of targeted QA scripts, projected more than 75% cost savings and reached rollout readiness in two months.
Health system
Rebuilt the digital care experience for a large U.S. health system. Slingshot standardized code across teams and accelerated delivery of a new patient-centered platform, supporting the reauthoring of 4,500 pages and replacement of a 10-year-old website.
