QualityLayer

QualityLayer is a software development platform that provides visual planning and side-by-side agent execution.

QualityLayer is a software factory that keeps you in the loop by pairing visual planning with your coding agent. You approve visual plans with clickable artifacts and diagrams before any code is written, and your agent builds the change and checks requirements. It runs on your computer and works with the agent plan or API key you already pay for, supporting tools like Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Grok, Antigravity, Pi, and OpenCode. The platform guides you through discuss, research, plan, outline, implement, verify, review, and pull request stages. It is designed for engineers and product managers who want structured workflows and proof of execution.
