For Product Owners coordinating AI-assisted delivery

See how each change meets your acceptance criteria.

Describe the change and approve its specification. AI agents implement it, your team reviews the code, and you accept the result with evidence.

Fig. 1 — The console's inbox: what waits for you, with its evidence and its cost.

More AI-generated code means more work to verify.

AI agents can produce changes quickly. Teams still need to agree on requirements, review technical decisions, check the implementation and verify the result. Under deadline pressure, keeping those steps consistent becomes harder.

Dekku connects them in one workflow. Each change carries its specification, its check results and its approval history, so your team can see what is ready and what still needs attention.

Design review and acceptance stay required, even under deadline pressure.

One workflow connecting requirements, code and decisions.

SpecificationAn approved specification gives agents and reviewers a shared reference.
ChecksA failed check holds the change until something it reads changes and the check passes.
Acceptance evidenceTests and screenshots are linked to each acceptance criterion.
Approval historyEvery approval names the person, the stage and the version they reviewed.
Changed requirementsChanges to the specification or its acceptance criteria require approval again.

Six stages. Who does what, and who decides.

  1. 01

    Spec

    Define the expected behavior and acceptance criteria. The Product Owner approves the specification.

  2. 02

    Design

    Review the technical approach. The architect approves the design.

  3. 03

    Build

    AI agents write the code and tests against the approved specification and design.

  4. 04

    Integrate

    Your test suite and the checks you require run on the change. A failed check blocks progress until its relevant inputs change and the check passes.

  5. 05

    Review

    A developer reviews the code and approves it or requests changes.

  6. 06

    Accept

    The Product Owner reviews the result and its evidence against the agreed criteria.

Sent back at any stage, a change returns with the reviewer's note, and the next attempt starts from it.

Ask for a change. Approve the result.

Questions teams ask first.

How do I verify a change without reviewing the code?

Review the result against the agreed acceptance criteria and inspect the evidence for each one. Design approval and code review are handled by the people responsible for the technical work.

What does an approval cover?

Each approval holds only for the version presented at that stage. The record shows who approved it and what they reviewed. Changes to the specification or acceptance criteria require approval again.

What happens if an agent produces an incorrect change?

Failed checks and missing approvals block the change from advancing. Reviewers can request changes with a note, and the Product Owner can send the result back. The agent's next attempt starts from that note.

What does the cost shown for a change include?

The model usage of each stage, counted against a budget reserved before every model call. If further work would go over the budget, the change pauses for a decision.

What work stays with our team?

Your team defines requirements, approves technical decisions, reviews code and verifies results. AI agents write the code within that workflow.

How does Dekku work with our tools?

Each change gets a branch and a pull request on your Git host, which Dekku keeps as a record of the change. Dekku keeps the linked Jira item updated and marks it Done when the approved, checked change is merged. It also sends email and webhooks.

Bring a backlog item to the demo. We'll walk through its specification, technical reviews, checks and acceptance, showing what each person sees and decides.
