Autonomous coding agents are here. Claude's latest model can run for seven hours straight without losing its place, building entire applications with minimal human involvement. The ecosystem is rapidly expanding with agents that promise unprecedented autonomy. But for the code these agents build to truly fulfill your vision, they need something most codebases don't have: clear intent.
That's where RAISE comes in.
Why Autonomous Agents Struggle When Building from Scratch
Autonomous agents don't lack intelligence—they lack context. When you ask an agent to build something new, it has to guess at your intent. What problems are you solving? Who are your users? What trade-offs matter to you? Without clear direction, even the most capable agent becomes a very expensive guesser.
RAISE Makes Intent Explicit
RAISE was designed precisely for this moment. When you start a new project with RAISE, you begin by defining your Vision, Values, and key Stories before any code gets written. This creates a blueprint that agents can read, understand, and build from.
Instead of guessing what you want, agents become collaborators who understand your goals.
That's not magic. That's structure.
From Developer Tool to Infrastructure for Agents
RAISE isn't just compatible with this future—it's foundational to it. If you want agents to build your vision well, start your project with RAISE.
