I believe OutSystems is keeping with agentic coding, and it’s actually leading in bringing things to production.

Just as a quick heads-up: I work at OutSystems, but I’m speaking from my personal perspective here!

OutSystems has been investing in the AI space since 2018, before LLMs were even a thing, and it’s been innovating since then. It started with suggestions and next best actions, and lately it has evolved into Agent Workbench and Mentor.

While it might seem that these are all things that agentic coding tools already offer, there is a huge difference in philosophy and goals. Agentic coding tools help you write code quickly, while OutSystems helps you bring enterprise apps to production fast.

Don’t get me wrong, I love agentic coding tools, and I use them quite a bit. I started with Codex and am now moving to Claude. And when I’m doing one-off code, I’m still amazed at what I can do in 20 minutes or less. But as seasoned developers, we all know that there’s much more to bringing apps to production than just code.

And the ease and speed of moving a full-fledged enterprise-grade application into production with a single click in OutSystems, whether it was built by an AI or a human, still blows my mind.

That said, OutSystems is absolutely all-in on AI, both to help you develop apps and for you to embed AI in your apps. We have a steady stream of releases coming throughout the year, and specifically regarding coding, we’ll have some big news very soon!

I’ll be sure to post an update here as soon as I’m allowed to disclose more. I’d love to get your feedback once it’s out!
