Hiring developers
Hiring a strong developer takes time. Tasks keep piling up while they get up to speed.
C3PIO Tracker
Set a task. Get finished code in your own GitLab.
An AI team of architects, developers, testers, reviewers, designers and technical writers plans, codes, tests and ships. You set the goal and approve the result.

Your backlog grows faster than you can hire
RUB 4 million a year
is the estimated cost of one mid-level developer, including taxes and a workstation. Availability still varies.
Senior engineers’ time
Senior engineers spend time on small fixes and documentation instead of architecture and product decisions.

You step in twice. The team handles the rest
- 01 · you
Brief
Describe the task in plain language. The tracker asks for clarification when needed.
- 02
Plan
The architect splits the work, writes acceptance criteria and assigns agents.
- 03
Code
Developers work in parallel in separate branches of your GitLab.
- 04
Test
The tester brings up a staging site, runs checks and sends screenshots.
- 05
Review
A model from another provider reviews the code, alongside the build and CI.

Release
Approve the result and release it with one tap, even from your phone.
A task moves through a capable team without waiting between stages. See who is working, what they did and what it cost. If a task stalls, the tracker investigates and asks you a specific question when needed.
2/3 of tasks pass review on the first attempt
A team that takes months to hire can start tomorrow
Each agent has a role and model. Assign work, change models and review the history as you would with a team.
Architect
Breaks down tasks, designs solutions and writes acceptance criteria.
Developers
Frontend, backend and ML agents work in parallel.
Tester
Runs staging checks and records defects with evidence.
Reviewer
Reviews code using another model and leaves comments on the merge request.
Designer
Creates mockups, checks interface changes and proposes ideas.
Technical writer
Prepares documentation for each release, including GOST format.
Researcher
Studies prototypes and alternatives and finds suitable components.
On-call engineer coming soon
Monitors the pipeline and resolves blockers. Coming in a future release.

A coding assistant helps one developer. The tracker takes a task through delivery.
| Traditional tracker | Coding assistant | C3PIO Tracker | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Who writes code | your developers | a developer with suggestions | a team of agents. |
| Planning and criteria | Manual | none | automated by the architect. |
| Tests and staging | Separate manual work | none | a tester on staging. |
| Code review | A colleague when available | none | a model from another provider. |
| Release documentation | Eventually | none | a technical writer. |
| Nights and weekends | No | no | around the clock. |
| Task cost visibility | No | no | for every agent run. |

We handle around 650 tasks a month across 15 projects
A small fix takes 1–2 hours; a feature, 4–8
A mid-level developer including taxes and workspace costs about RUB 1,500
≈ 10 months
first-year payback including implementation
- Annual savings
- 2,980,800 RUB
- Year one: license, implementation, server and models
- 2,400,000 RUB
- From year two
- 1,900,000 RUB
- Headcount equivalent
- 1.4 developers
Savings = tasks × hours × rate × 12 minus model runs. Annual cost includes servers and models.
Start with a pilot, then scale on evidence
Pay for the installation, not seats. The price does not change with the number of people using the tracker.
Pilot
Try it on your code before committing

Your code and data stay with you
Your environment
The tracker runs on your server beside GitLab. Nothing leaves without your decision.
Your models
Use your own API keys and subscriptions or local models on your GPU. Mix them as needed.
Sandbox
Agents work in isolated containers with limited network access.
Full audit trail
Every agent action, run and ruble appears in the task history.
Questions we hear in the first meeting
What if an agent writes bad code?
You see the result after tests, staging and review by a model from another provider. Failed checks return the task with specific feedback. Two thirds pass review on the first attempt. You make the final call.
Will our code go to overseas providers?
Only if you choose overseas models. The tracker can use local models on your hardware. Keep sensitive projects local and use cloud models for others.
Will we have to cut developers?
No. The tracker takes routine work so your developers can focus on architecture, product and complex decisions.
What do you need from us?
A server, GitLab and someone to brief tasks and approve results. We teach clear acceptance criteria during the pilot.
Does it work without GitLab?
The tracker currently works with GitLab. An adapter for another code host is available under the Extended plan.
What does one task cost?
Every run is priced in the task card. A UI change taking about 90 minutes costs roughly RUB 1,000 in model usage; a developer hour costs a company around RUB 1,500.
How soon will we see results?
The first tasks reach code in week one. Over 4–6 weeks we take 3–5 of your tasks to production and share a measured report.
Let us prove it with your tasks, not a demo
30-minute call
We review your stack and choose 3–5 pilot tasks.
Setup in a week
We install the tracker beside your GitLab and assemble the team.
