AI-Powered Project Documentation Platform
Internal Canarlo Platform — In Active Development
Overview
Software development teams and agencies repeatedly face the same bottleneck: vague project ideas turn into incomplete documentation, misaligned expectations, and costly delays. This internal platform transforms high-level project concepts into complete, professional-grade documentation suites.
Objectives
Convert vague project ideas into validated, structured scope
Guide users through intelligent, conversational project discovery
Automatically generate complete documentation suites (PRD, Tech Specs, Architecture, APIs, etc.)
Support continuous iteration and scope refinement
Scale from solo developers to enterprise teams without architectural change
Our Approach
We applied an AI-first, systems-driven engineering approach focused on repeatability, correctness, and long-term scalability. Rather than building a static form-based tool, we designed a conversational discovery system that actively identifies ambiguity, missing requirements, and contradictions before documentation is generated. The platform captures over 50 structured data points across a guided, adaptive workflow — ensuring documentation is generated from validated inputs, not assumptions. Every component was designed around three principles: intelligent automation, type-safe validation, and horizontal scalability.
Engineering Highlights
| Focus Area | What We Delivered |
|---|---|
| AI Orchestration | Multi-model AI system separating real-time conversation from deep analysis and generation |
| Discovery System | Adaptive, multi-step conversational workflow capturing business, technical, and operational requirements |
| Document Generation | Parallel, dependency-aware generation of multiple specialist documents |
| Type Safety | End-to-end TypeScript with schema-validated AI outputs |
| Security | Multi-tenant architecture with strict data isolation and server-side validation |
| Performance | Real-time AI streaming with sub-second response times |
| Data Architecture | Flexible metadata storage enabling rapid iteration without breaking changes |
Outcomes
Documentation generation reduced from days to minutes
Scope clarity improved through structured discovery capturing 50+ parameters
Real-time AI interactions with sub-second streaming responses
Parallel generation of 8+ professional documents per project
Fully type-safe AI interactions eliminating runtime parsing errors
Secure multi-tenant data isolation suitable for enterprise use
Business Impact
The platform enables teams to start projects with clear, validated scope, reduce miscommunication and rework, maintain consistent documentation quality across teams, and scale project intake without increasing overhead. It also serves as a foundation for long-term scope management and iteration throughout the development lifecycle.
Reflection
This platform demonstrates how AI orchestration, structured validation, and modern SaaS architecture can turn a fragile, manual process into a scalable system. By focusing on conversational discovery and correctness from day one, we built a platform that works intelligently — capturing complex project requirements through natural dialogue and producing production-ready documentation in minutes rather than days. This internal platform directly informs how we design and deliver AI-powered SaaS and business systems for clients — applying the same principles of automation, scalability, and long-term maintainability.

A product-led business required a SaaS platform that could support multiple frontends, partner integrations, and future expansion without repeatedly reworking core logic.
Platform Upgrade & Modernisation
A growing SaaS platform had reached the limits of its original architecture. Rather than dealing with unstable legacy code or undertaking a risky full rewrite, the client needed a controlled upgrade and modernisation.
AI-Driven Operations & Workflow Automation Platform
A growing services-based business was struggling to scale its operations. As client volume increased, core workflows relied on a mix of spreadsheets, inboxes, and disconnected third-party tools — creating bottlenecks, manual errors, and limited visibility.
