In one line
“They’re basically an AI that helps companies build software in a controlled, documented way.”
8090 is a software development platform that uses AI to help companies modernize old code and build new applications. Instead of letting AI agents write code on their own, 8090 keeps business leaders in charge—they say what needs to be built in plain English, and the system handles the technical work while keeping a complete audit trail. Think of it like having a really organized assistant who does the actual coding but needs constant approval and records everything they do.
How they make money
8090 Software Factory is priced at $200 per user per month, with tokens billed separately. This is their self-serve offering aimed at companies that want to use the platform themselves.

What it looks like
If your enterprise signed up for 8090:
- You define what you want in plain English
Business leaders describe the software they need or the old code they want to understand, without writing technical specs first. 8090 uses that plain language to guide the AI.
Stated - The platform coordinates AI and people working together
8090 Software Factory brings your team and AI agents into one system. The AI writes code and reads legacy systems, but every decision is documented and traceable so you can audit exactly what happened.
Stated - You get modern, auditable software with full documentation
Whether you're modernizing 18 million lines of old code or building something new, you end up with software that's fully documented, traced to source, and ready for compliance reviews.

Follow the incentives
Best guessLarge enterprises and regulated industries (healthcare, financial services, manufacturing, government) pay for either the self-serve subscription or custom development services.
Engineering teams and business leaders inside those enterprises use the Software Factory platform to define requirements and build software together with AI assistance.
They want companies to replace legacy systems with modern, well-documented, auditable software while keeping business leaders in control instead of letting AI make architectural decisions.
Say it at dinner
“They help companies rebuild old software systems using AI, but with your executives staying in charge.”
