Scrums.com launches subscription Software Factory with AI agents and senior engineers

By AI, Created 10:42 UTC, Oct 19, 2026, AGP -

Scrums.com has rolled out new Delivery Plans that bundle senior engineers and AI agents into a monthly subscription for software build, test and release work. The service is live in the US, the UK and South Africa, with first code promised within 48 hours and pricing starting at $4,500 a month.

Why it matters: - Businesses can now buy software delivery capacity as a subscription instead of hiring a team or signing a one-off agency contract. - Scrums.com is positioning the model as a faster path from backlog to shipped code, with first code promised within 48 hours. - The new pricing puts a Software Factory team at a lower monthly entry point than many in-house hires.

What happened: - Scrums.com launched the Software Factory and its new Delivery Plans on October 19, 2026. - The service combines senior engineers and AI agents in one monthly subscription. - The plans are available today to businesses in the US, the UK and South Africa. - More information is available on Scrums.com’s AI development page.

The details: - Customers subscribe, queue work and get code in within 48 hours. - The service removes the need for a hiring cycle, an agency contract and multiple tools. - Requests can cover AI, custom software, web, mobile, QA and DevOps work. - All work goes into one prioritized backlog. - Senior engineers scope and own each task. - AI agents speed up the build. - QA and code-review agents check every pull request before a senior engineer approves it. - Every request, agent run and release appears on one live delivery board. - Delivery Plans start at $4,500 a month, or £3,750, down from $8,000 or £6,700. - The plan includes one active workstream and unlimited requests on the backlog. - Scrums.com says the package puts a full Software Factory team, including senior engineers and superintelligence agents, within reach for less than the cost of one mid-level engineer. - The platform runs on Scrums.com’s enterprise AI platform, AI agent harness and expert engineering network. - Scrums.com says its teams operate across five global regions. - The company says it has 15 years of delivery experience building software for major brands.

Between the lines: - Scrums.com is betting that buyers want software output, not staff augmentation. - The offering blends managed services and AI tooling into a single commercial package, which could appeal to leaders trying to speed delivery without adding headcount. - The live delivery board and senior-engineer approval flow suggest the company is trying to keep accountability with humans while using AI to accelerate throughput.

What's next: - Scrums.com is now taking subscription customers for the Software Factory model in the three launch markets. - The company is likely to use Delivery Plans to expand adoption of its AI-native engineering platform and delivery network. - Jamie Chennells, CIO and co-founder of Scrums.com, said: “Every company now needs a software factory, but very few can build one.” - Chennells said customers can “subscribe to ours in one click” and watch experts and agents take the backlog to done and ship it. - The company’s social channels are listed on LinkedIn, YouTube and X.
