Spec-driven AI delivery
Fast to build. Safe to run.
Pioneer Labs is a spec-driven AI delivery company. We take data and AI work from idea to production, with lean senior teams and AI agents that build from clear specifications. Every feature is sized before work starts, so you can plan the budget up front.
Teams can now produce software, data pipelines and AI workflows in days. What AI can’t produce is clarity on what to build, the controls a regulator expects, or confidence that it will still work in six months.
When AI work fails, it tends to fail in the same three places.
Unclear requirements.
Nobody agreed what good looks like.
Data nobody trusts.
The AI is only as good as what sits underneath it.
No owner after launch.
It works on day one and drifts from day two.
Powered by
Specify. Build. Prove.
Most teams prompt AI and hope. We start from a clear specification, and AI agents build from it.
Specify.
We turn business requirements into a specification: data contracts, controls, acceptance tests and a backlog. You agree it before anything is built.
Build.
AI agents build from the specification. Senior engineers review every change before it ships.
Prove.
Every feature is traceable from the business decision to the code, and accepted against the specification.
In a regulated business, the specification becomes the control.
TurboBA is our spec-driven delivery platform, built on decades of enterprise delivery.
HUMAN-LED. AI-ACCELERATED.
Execution as a Service.
Plan features. Agree the credits and budget. Get enterprise-quality delivery, led by senior people and accelerated by our platform and AI agents.
Plan your features.
Senior delivery lead
Plan the features you need. We size the work in delivery credits and agree the budget before delivery starts.
Deliver within budget.
Senior engineering lead
Senior people direct our platform and AI agents, keeping delivery within the agreed budget and accountable to enterprise-grade quality.
Pay for what ships.
Fractional senior team
Pay for consumption: credits used for features delivered and accepted, not hours spent. A lean senior team manages the platform and delivery.
Pay for features delivered, not hours spent.
Consumption-based delivery. You pay for what ships, not for time on a timesheet.
THE UNIT IS DELIVERY
Features shipped. Not hours logged.
Delivery credits.
One credit buys one medium feature, delivered and accepted.
Clear sizes.
Small, medium and large features are defined up front and agreed with you at planning.
A budget you can plan.
Every feature is sized from its specification before work starts, so you know what it will cost and can set the budget up front.
Monthly plans.
Each plan includes credits every month. Larger plans cost less per credit, and extra credits are there when you need them.
We step back by design.
As your team takes on more, you use fewer credits. When it is ready to run delivery itself, it can keep using TurboBA under licence.
Capability, not dependency.
Pricing on request.

Technology diagnostic.
A clear view of what’s working, what isn’t and what to do first.
Technical due diligence.
For investors who need to know what they’re buying.
We’ve delivered for some of the most demanding organisations there are, and we bring the same discipline to every client: consumer brands, retailers, marketplaces, scale-ups and startups.
