Progress Defines 'PEAK.ai', an AI-Driven Development Standard Fusing Generative AI Insights with Design Expertise

Progress Co., Ltd. announces the definition of 'PEAK.ai,' a new development standard that centers generative AI within the development process.

This standard fuses the latest knowledge accumulated from both contract development and in-house service development with the design quality cultivated through conventional project experiences. By introducing 'AI-Readable' design methodologies, it achieves not only maximum development efficiency but also high-level governance and quality control suitable for enterprise use.

### Background of PEAK.ai - Redefining 'Quality' and 'Speed' in the AI Era

While generative AI is rapidly spreading in software development, teams face challenges such as individualized methodologies, maintaining project consistency, security quality, and the 'black-boxing' of specifications, which pose hurdles for medium-to-large-scale adoption.

To address these, the company has established a process and document system compatible with AI, enabling both the maximum utilization of AI's potential and human readability and management.

### Features of PEAK.ai

- **Toolkitized Framework Based on Specification-Driven Development** PEAK.ai is based on the Specification-Driven Development framework (cc-sdd) and incorporates the company's system development expertise. It provides templates for prompts, AI review scripts, and automated security checks.

- **Optimized Processes for AI Utilization** Specifications are defined in 'AI-Readable' formats such as Markdown, enhancing traceability. To prevent manual reviews from becoming bottlenecks, a critical review process using AI is incorporated. Customer approvals are facilitated through AI-generated test reports and actual device operation results, reducing review effort.

- **Explicit Guidelines for Security and Project Adoption** The standard clarifies key points for project alignment and introduces AI-based security review processes to ensure secure development.

### Comprehensive Guidelines and Tools

PEAK.ai consists of: - Development Guide: Process standards - Toolkit: Templates/tools based on cc-sdd - Sample Applications: Actual code samples - Training Guide: Learning content - Project Introduction Guide: Proposal templates

### Future Outlook Progress continues to contribute as a digital partner for clients.
