AI Engineering
What we do
Four capabilities.
One accountable team.
AI supports every discipline we offer. Experienced specialists direct the work, validate the results and stay accountable for them.
Custom software, SaaS, mobile apps, integrations and modernization, plus AI agents that automate business workflows. Coding agents speed up implementation and refactoring; engineers own architecture, reviews and technical decisions.
Test strategy, automation, exploratory testing, AI-system evaluation and release readiness, for software we build or software you already run. AI drafts tests and helps investigate defects; QA specialists test against requirements and make the release call.
Deployment pipelines, infrastructure, monitoring, backup and recovery, private model hosting and ongoing operations. AI assists with infrastructure code and diagnostics; DevOps engineers review configuration and approve production changes.
Discovery, research, user journeys, prototypes, interface design, design systems and usability improvement. AI speeds up synthesis of the research you permit and design exploration; designers own usability, accessibility and validation.
Every project
We use AI to build software
AI tools speed up design, engineering, QA and operations, whatever you're building. Your product doesn't need an AI feature to benefit.

Development packages
Two ways to build.
One engineering standard.
Both packages deliver the same expert-led, AI-assisted engineering. They differ in where AI tools process your code and project context while we build, and in what has to be set up and run.
Software delivery with suitable privately hosted models, inside a processing environment we agree with you. It's an engineering engagement, not GPU rental: we select and evaluate models, set up development agents and their permissions, and deliver with the same expert design, QA and release control.
Best fit
Policies that keep source code, prompts and research inside a boundary you control.
- AI processing environment
- Open-weight models on your infrastructure or in an agreed isolated environment.
- Setup
- Model evaluation, environment and agent setup before development, scoped per engagement.
- Infrastructure responsibility
- Model hosting is part of the engagement, run by your team or ours as agreed.
- Ongoing management
- Optional ongoing model and infrastructure management.
Expert-led delivery using Claude Code and/or OpenAI Codex with approved cloud-model configurations. You buy our engineering capability, not a resold AI subscription.
Best fit
Teams that can approve commercial AI coding tools and want an AI-first workflow without hosting models.
- AI processing environment
- Claude Code and/or OpenAI Codex, processed by the provider under account settings agreed with you.
- Setup
- Accounts, repository access, data handling and retention settings agreed before development.
- Infrastructure responsibility
- No dedicated model infrastructure for this delivery approach.
- Ongoing management
- Tool administration and access reviews; product operations are scoped separately.
Both packages include
- Experienced engineering oversight
- Product design, as scoped
- Professional QA
- Security-conscious reviews
- Controlled releases
- Documentation
- Agreed handover

Ways to work with us
The whole product,
or just the part you need.
Every engagement has its own scope. Choose where you are, and the enquiry form opens with it selected.
- A complete productDesign, engineering, QA and launch for a new web app, SaaS platform or mobile app.
- AI agents or automationAgents and workflows connected to your systems, with permissions, approvals and supervision.
- Independent QATest strategy, automation, exploratory testing and release-risk reports, for software built by any team.
- DevOps and infrastructurePipelines, cloud infrastructure, monitoring, recovery and private model hosting.
- UI/UX design onlyResearch, journeys, prototypes and design systems, without development unless you add it.
- Improve an existing or AI-built appAssessment, stabilization, tests and modernization for software that's live or nearly there.
- Ongoing engineering and operationsReleases, maintenance, monitoring, QA regression coverage and improvements under a support plan.
Support hours, response commitments, responsibilities and exclusions are agreed for each engagement.
How We Work
Five phases.
Quality from day one.
QA, security and DevOps start in the first week and continue through every phase. They're not a final checkpoint.
We clarify goals, users and constraints, then map the key journeys and prototype them. AI speeds up exploration; experienced designers decide what serves your users and your business.
- Goals & scope
- User journeys
- Prototypes
Engineers set the architecture, data flows and integrations, and we agree which AI tools may be used, where processing happens and what they can access. QA plans tests from the requirements.
- Architecture
- AI tool boundaries
- Test plan
Engineers break the work into scoped tasks and coordinate coding agents to implement, refactor and draft tests. Changes are reviewed before they're merged, and you see progress in regular demos.
- Scoped tasks
- Reviewed changes
- Regular demos
QA specialists test against requirements and real user behavior, with AI helping draft tests and investigate defects, plus risk-based security and performance reviews. Issues are fixed before release, not after.
- Automated tests
- Exploratory QA
- Release sign-off
DevOps manages controlled releases with monitoring, recovery plans and documentation, using AI to help diagnose issues. After launch, we keep improving the product under an agreed support scope.
- Controlled releases
- Monitoring
- Handover & support

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What does Canvas Developers do?
We're an AI-first software engineering company with four capabilities: AI engineering and automation (custom software, SaaS, integrations, modernization and AI agents), AI-assisted QA and release assurance, DevOps and AI infrastructure, and AI-assisted product design and UI/UX. SEO and digital growth remain available as a secondary service.
Does my product need an AI feature to work with you?
No. We use AI to build software, and we build AI into software only when the product needs it; those are different services. A web app, SaaS platform or internal tool without AI features still benefits from AI-assisted engineering, QA and operations.
Who is responsible for work that AI helps produce?
Our team is. Engineers own the architecture and review changes before they're merged, QA specialists decide whether a release is ready, DevOps engineers approve production changes and designers own the experience. AI speeds up the work; it doesn't make those decisions.
What's the difference between the two development packages?
Private / Local AI Engineering uses privately hosted models inside infrastructure you control or an agreed isolated environment. Claude Code / OpenAI Codex Engineering uses Claude Code and/or OpenAI Codex with cloud settings your organization approves, with no model infrastructure to run. Both follow the same engineering, design, QA and release standards.
Can we hire you for QA, DevOps or UI/UX only?
Yes. Each capability can be engaged on its own: independent QA for software built by any team, DevOps and infrastructure work including ongoing operations, or UI/UX design without development. Scope and deliverables are agreed per engagement.
What happens after launch?
We can stay on under a scoped support engagement covering releases, maintenance, regression testing, infrastructure and monitoring, and AI agent or model operations where relevant. Support hours, response commitments and exclusions are agreed up front.
Can you take over or improve existing software, including AI-built apps?
Yes. We start by reviewing the code, tests, infrastructure and risks, then agree a plan: stabilizing and fixing, adding QA and DevOps, modernizing or continuing development.
Where are you based, and how do we start?
Our office is in Dhaka, Bangladesh, and we work with clients worldwide. Message us on WhatsApp at +8801755564028, email support@canvasdevs.com or use the contact form. Tell us what you want to build, review or operate, and we'll suggest the next step. There is no lock-in.
