AGENTIC SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT CASE STUDY: AI-NATIVE SDLC CASE STUDY

BlastAsia Transforms its Custom Software Delivery Process with Xamun

Xamun empowers a software development agency to profitably deliver fixed-price custom software projects for the first time

BlastAsia, with the help of Xamun, successfully delivered fixed-price custom software contracts
while protecting their profits

In an industry rife with challenges, BlastAsia, a premier dev shop from the Philippines, faced a relentless frustration. With over two decades, they became renowned for delivering cutting-edge R&D projects globally with a highly skilled team that grew from just 3 members to over 130. Despite their success, every attempt to profit from fixed-price contracts felt like throwing money into a bottomless pit. As demand for managed service contracts dwindled, their reliance on fixed-price projects became perilous, sparking a deep-rooted concern not just for their bottom line but for the livelihood of their skilled employees and the expectations of their clients.

‍

Witnessing the struggles of their peers, the plight of countless agencies trying to achieve the dream of profitable software delivery left an indelible mark on their founders. They recognized a common thread—the inability to scope projects effectively was a recurring theme, one that transformed hope into despair. Frustration brewed as they saw clients burdened by scope creep and missed deadlines, feeling unjustly trapped in a system that left no room for stability.

‍

Out of necessity, a solution emerged: Xamun Technology. Adapted from industry best practices and powered by AI, Xamun was born to bring about a dramatic shift in custom software delivery. BlastAsia became the first partner to adopt the platform, guided by the conviction that every client deserved a reliable and efficient means to fulfill their software goals.

‍

After integrating Xamun, the transformation was palpable. In just two years, BlastAsia embarked on a new journey, successfully delivering around 20 fixed-price projects—each completed on time and profitably. With Xamun's Design First approach, clients could visualize their software solution before a single line of code was written. They could provide input that shaped the project scope, effectively turning uncertainty into clarity. The AI Agents embedded within the platform sped up delivery by an astonishing 6-10 times, allowing room for unforeseen complications without sacrificing quality or profit margins.

‍

BlastAsia's story is not just one of resilience but also of lessees to thrive even in changing market dynamics. Their journey is a testament to the potential that lies in embracing innovative solutions like Xamun. They now approach every new engagement with confidence, ready to tackle fixed-price contracts that others in the industry shy away from. With the backing of Microsoft and Nvidia, they have not only transformed their narrative but have also become a beacon of hope for agencies everywhere.

‍

With proven results and a commitment to excellence, BlastAsia stands as a leader in the software development realm. Their success reflects not just on their journey but also serves a larger purpose—empowering other agencies with the tools and confidence needed to navigate the turbulent waters of custom software development.

  • This approach delivers 8-10x faster development speed compared to traditional methods

  • The result is approximately 35% lower cost compared to quality development shops in Asia

4. What kind of architecture does Xamun use for custom mobile and web apps?

Xamun builds applications using a micro-monolith cloud-native architecture. This approach:

  • Creates cohesive, self-contained application units (typically around 30 screens per unit)

  • Enables independent deployment and scaling

  • Maintains the simplicity of monolithic applications while providing the flexibility of microservices

  • Optimizes for both development speed and performance

  • Supports modern cloud deployment practices

5. How do you ensure quality at such high speeds using AI-native SDLC?

Quality is maintained through:

  • AI agents that consistently apply best practices and patterns
