Introduction Selecting a Fintech Software Development Company is a Strategic Business Partnership and More Than a Technical Decision only Based on Technology. It has many aspects that contribute to how fast, secure and scalable your product will be developed; whether it is a Mobile Banking Application, Payment Gateway Integration, or Fully Regulated Digital Wallet. You […]
Introduction For those in the hospitality sector, delivering an excellent guest experience is critical. The ease of a guest’s journey, from making a reservation, to checking out, is likely to influence whether they will return to your hotel for a future stay. Many hotels are turning to custom mobile applications as a way to build […]
Why AI Can Be Risky for Non-technical Founders AI is like magic, particularly if one is not too invested in coding or product design. Yet with every AI application or feature that is machine-generated, one must remember that it is code – sometimes code that appears to function just fine but is rife with massive […]
Why Investors Care About Code Investors are not just backing your vision; they are indirectly inheriting your tech debt. They would like to know: • Is your product founded on shaky ground? • “Can your existing tech stack meet the scaling demands of your user base?” • Are there bugs or security holes lurking just […]
The Hidden Risk In Fast-Moving Startups Startups move fast-especially those experimenting with a set of AI tools like ChatGPT, GitHub Copilot, or other low-code/no-code platforms. But speed usually comes at the expense of code quality. Founders, especially non-technical ones, usually think that “if it runs, it works.” Unfortunately, that’s not true. The fact that code […]
The Hidden Risks of AI-Generated Code Whether you are a founder or CTO working with AI-generated code, this article is for you. In Appricotsoft, we have reviewed hundreds of AI-assisted MVPs and full-scale applications, and though AI coding tools like Copilot and ChatGPT speed up things, they consistently generate serious, and often subtle, problems that […]
Why AI Code Audits Are Now Essential You’ve probably seen the promises: “Ship your MVP in days, not months.” AI coding tools have made building faster than ever-but not necessarily better. Here is what we are seeing at Appricotsoft: • AI-generated code is often brittle, insecure, and disorganized. • Founders get a working prototype but […]
The Risks of Going Solo with AI Freelancers Going solo with AI freelancing It’s common to hire AI freelancers to do the initial work. It’s flexible, fast, and typically less expensive than hiring a team of developers to build a whole product. But let’s be clear on this, founders who are not technical don’t understand […]
The Unsung Role of Documentation You might think, “Why does documentation matter if the code works?” Well, herein lies the issue: undocumented code is like a map without labels. Sure, you might find your way eventually, but it’s going to be slow, error-prone, and expensive. Proper documentation helps: • New developers come on board more […]
The Illusion of “Free” Code It’s simple to get swept away by the allure of AI-created code that’s quick, inexpensive, and “good enough.” But the problem with all this is: • AI does not comprehend your business rules. • It doesn’t matter to AI how scalable your tech stack is. • AI is not verified […]
Why AI Produces Bad Architecture The AI can’t possibly understand your product vision, your business logic, your goals. It doesn’t know whether your application is going to require serving 10 users or 10,000. It simply wants to predict the next token to satisfy it. And this is the first issue. This is exactly what it […]
Why AI-Created Code Feels “Done” (But Isn’t) AI tools such as ChatGPT and Copilot are optimized to answer the question rather than ensuring long-term maintainability; they are optimized to solve the prompt, not solve your business problem. That means: • This code may “work”, but its often not secure, not scalable and not modular. • […]
