SonOf

Fulcrum

Paid

Agentic engineering service that connects to your repo and PM tool, writes tickets, and ships the ones you approve.

Key features

  • Agentic Codebase Audit: A 24-hour scan of your repo, tickets, docs, and Slack that produces a readiness score plus a prioritized list of security, tech-debt, and architecture findings.
  • Backlog Generation: Writes tickets — both from the audit and enriched versions of your existing backlog — with story-point estimates and dollar costs in plain English.
  • Senior Engineer Review: Every ticket is checked by a human tech lead who assigns story points, defines acceptance criteria, and signs off before code ships.
  • Approve-Before-Ship Workflow: You pick which tickets to build; SonOf only ships what you approve, then bills the story points on deploy.
  • Multi-Stack Coverage: Supports common modern web stacks (TypeScript, Python, Rails, PHP, Java, Go), mobile (Swift, Kotlin, React Native, Flutter), and infrastructure (AWS, Vercel, Cloudflare, GCP, Kubernetes, Docker).
  • Existing-Team Integration: Runs on your repo, follows your conventions, and opens PRs through your CI/CD pipeline so in-house engineers review its work like any teammate's.
  • Tests, Bug Fixes, and DevOps: Ships unit, integration, and end-to-end tests as part of every feature ticket, and handles DevOps work like CI/CD configuration, deployment pipelines, and monitoring setup.

Best for

  • Inheriting a Legacy Codebase: Solo founders who shipped v1 with a freelancer or agency use SonOf as their entire engineering function without hiring a CTO.
  • Scaling a Small Team: Founder-led startups with 1-5 in-house developers offload routine bug fixes, small-to-medium features, and refactors so the internal team can focus on architectural work.
  • Unblocking a Stalled Roadmap: 10-30 person engineering teams that can't hire fast enough use SonOf as additional throughput to clear the backlog without restructuring.
  • Legacy Onboarding in 24 Hours: Products with large, undocumented codebases run the agentic audit to get a full context knowledge base in a day instead of weeks of ramp-up.
  • Fixing Security and Tech Debt: Teams surface exposed secrets, missing CSP headers, unmaintained dependencies, and duplicated auth logic through the audit and ship the fixes on story-point pricing.
