ZekeLabs

Software products, architected and built with AI.

An independent studio that takes software from spec to running product. AI does the building, every change is checked, and nothing ships until it is approved.

The Digital Novice: each daily issue is written, illustrated, checked and published with no one at the keyboard.

Selected work

One method on every project

  1. Specify

    ZekeLabs writes the spec and the rules the build has to follow.

  2. Build

    An AI model builds and tests against that spec.

  3. Check

    A second model that hasn't seen the work reviews it and marks what must change.

  4. Approve

    No change to a system is saved or shipped until ZekeLabs approves that exact change.
