### Vibe Coding with Cursor AI (Tips and Tricks Included)

- Blog Tags: Product Development, AI

You’ve probably heard about vibe coding before. Or maybe you haven’t yet, and you’ll realize, “Oh, so that’s what it’s called now,” once you read a bit further. Vibe coding is all about using AI to write the code (all of it! ) while you guide it with prompts. With it, even people with zero coding experience can create working software—though code quality is another story. It focuses on results and workflows rather than the nitty-gritty details of software engineering. Now, I’m not a software engineer and don’t know any programming languages. But I’m the kind of person who doesn’t let that stop me. I know how to prompt large language models, and I’m good at efficient problem solving. I’ve also created some custom HTMLs for my company’s website using AI (like our AI Developer Tools tier list table). Thanks to these, I should be great at making the AI code something nice for me, right? So, when the vibe coding trend caught my attention, I decided to push my “AI coding” limits. In this guide, I’ll show you how to vibe code in Cursor AI and Claude 3. 7 by using the example of a WordPress plugin that adds a “questionnaire” widget to Elementor. While this plugin addresses a specific use case, the lessons learned go way beyond that (plus, I needed one, so I made it with AI—and I hope you’ll be able to say the same about your coding projects once we're finished! ). Along the way, I’ll share my...

Gen Z is all over the Internet, and you've probably heard about Gen Alpha, too. But did you know that 2025 is when a new generation - Generation Beta - is born? In this article, we'll dive deep into the predicted characteristics of the "Generation AI”, focusing on their relationship with technology, values, traits, and simply - their life. All the numbers below come from Prudential’s research on Generation Beta (unless stated otherwise).     AI software development What is Generation Beta? Generation Beta (also called Generation AI, Generation Robot, or Space Agers) are people born between 2025 and 2039. They succeed Gen Z. They are expected to grow up in a world transformed by advanced technology, environmental shifts, and evolving societal norms.   Always in beta mode Although 'Generation Beta' is an informal label following 'Generation Alpha' in the Greek alphabet sequence, the name might stick because it represents a future of constant change.   79% of people surveyed by Prudential agree that 'Generation Beta' will exist in a constant “beta” mode—a state of continuous development—with shifting family dynamics, evolving education, changing job markets, and redefined retirement shaping their lives.   Learn more about Gen Z: Gen Z finance and banking Gen Z healthcare How to design banking apps for Gen Z   Generation Beta & technology Generation Beta will likely develop a "chronically online" reputation.

### How we actually measure developer productivity

> We’ve landed on a simple yet powerful way to measure what matters: delivered value. Here's how to measure effectiveness of a product team.

- Blog Tags: Agile, News

“You can’t measure developer performance. ”We’ve all heard that before. In fact, we used to say it ourselves. For years, at Pragmatic Coders, we wrestled with this exact problem. Developer work is creative, complex, and varied—how can you possibly reduce it to a metric? But after many failed attempts, we’ve landed on a simple yet powerful way to measure what matters: delivered value. It’s not perfect. It took us over a year to implement. But today, it’s a core part of how we build trust, improve our teams, and deliver better outcomes for our clients. Build your product with us Why It’s So Hard to Measure Developer Work There’s no shortage of reasons why people say measuring development work is impossible: “It’s a creative process—you can’t quantify it. ” “If we start measuring, developers will just focus on quantity, not quality. ” “Tasks are too different to compare. ” “Teams vary too much to benchmark. ” And honestly, a lot of historical attempts at measurement have failed. They focused on meaningless metrics (like lines of code) or fostered toxic performance comparisons between developers. The result? Distrust, burnout, and bad software. But what if we looked at it differently? A Simple Starting Point: Delivered Value Let’s keep it pragmatic. We asked ourselves: What’s the smallest, measurable, consistently deliverable unit that contains business value? Our answer: a deployed user story. Is that a perfect outcome? No. But it’s close enough to be useful—if we define “user story” properly, and use supporting metrics to balance the...

### 8 ways to automate your HR department (and it’s not only AI)

HR is full of repetitive tasks—screening applicants, answering common questions, scheduling interviews, and more. Automation makes these tasks easier, and AI takes it even further. At Pragmatic Coders, we’ve automated HR processes, and the results speak for themselves. Here are eight ways our HR team is using automation and AI —from simple fixes to advanced workflows—and why you should, too.   AI automation for HR Examples of AI in HR 1. Text generation in HR A Slack message draft for a company retreat announcement in Szczawnica, generated in ChatGPT. HR professionals often juggle numerous writing tasks—from drafting internal announcements to updating policy documents. Leaders estimate they spend 3 to 10 or more hours per week preparing essential communications for their organizations - and this time could be better spent. Generative AI in HR for content creation Drafting announcements & policy summaries Generative AI tools (e. g. , ChatGPT) can create a first draft of memos, announcements, or policy updates in seconds. We already use ChatGPT daily to generate article content and draft internal communications. This saves us time on routine writing tasks so we can focus on more strategic HR initiatives. Writing job descriptions AI can parse existing job posts, analyze role requirements, and generate a polished draft that HR can fine-tune. We feed ChatGPT basic role info and desired qualifications; it returns near-complete job ads, ready for final edits. Rewording sensitive topics AI can help rewrite complex or delicate messages with clarity and empathy—vital for communications around policy changes...

### Will AI Replace Programmers? Maybe—But Not the Way You Think

> Explore the potential of AI to replace programmers, its impact on the tech industry, and how to adapt and thrive in this evolving landscape.

- Published: 2025-03-07
- Modified: 2025-03-07
- URL: https://www.pragmaticcoders.com/blog/will-ai-replace-programmers
- Blog Tags: AI, Business Strategy

Will artificial intelligence really replace human programmers? It’s a question sparking equal parts excitement and anxiety across the tech world. On one hand, we hear hype about AI models that can churn out code at the click of a button, potentially doing the work of an entire engineering team. On the other, there are genuine concerns from developers: Will their jobs vanish as coding becomes automated? This debate isn’t entirely new – for decades, tools from code generators (like The Last One from 1981) to low-code platforms (dating their origins to the 1990s) have promised to reduce the need for human programmers.   But with the rise of advanced AI coding assistants like Anthropic's recent Claude 3. 7 and GitHub Copilot, the conversation has reached fever pitch. Predictions range from optimistic to dire. For example, in 2017, Oak Ridge National Laboratory researchers predicted that by 2040, machines “would write most of their own code. ” Their early warning shows just how far back these concerns go—and underscores the radical shift AI could bring to software creation. It’s no wonder nearly 30% of developers in one of the Evans Data Corporation surveys feared AI could replace their work in the foreseeable future. Before we either hail our new AI overlords or dismiss the worries as sci-fi, though, it’s worth taking a nuanced look at what today’s AI can and cannot do in software development. Yes, AI is getting surprisingly good at coding – but it also has clear weaknesses. And while AI might change...

### SaaS is dead? How AI agents reduced SaaS to just an API

> Will SaaS become just a database for AI? Discover what happens when AI agents replace traditional software interfaces.

- Blog Tags: AI

Will SaaS become obsolete? Will user interfaces disappear? Or will SaaS evolve into a new integration layer for AI?   As AI agents gain autonomy in software interactions, the question arises: will SaaS as we know it survive? Recently, I stumbled upon an interesting doc and a no less interesting Hacker News discussion What happens to SaaS in a world with computer-using agents? Below, I’ve summarized and presented the observations from the community in a more digestible form.   AI agent development services What Happens to SaaS in a World with Computer Using Agents? In his article "What Happens to SaaS in a World with Computer Using Agents? ", Stephen Coyner proposes that SaaS could transform into a backend layer, with user interfaces becoming redundant as AI agents take over interactions. Before diving into the broader discussion, let's summarize the main points of Coyner’s argument: Context: We are entering an era where AI agents can use software just like humans do, but more efficiently. Companies like OpenAI and Anthropic are developing AI that can autonomously interact with complex applications. The author cites Anthropic's CEO, Dario Amodei's, prediction of a "virtual collaborator" potentially arriving "this year and maybe even in the first half of this year. " These agents will be faster, and more knowledgeable (via long context windows); they will work tirelessly 24/7. Example: Traditionally, a sales rep would manually log interactions into a CRM. In this new AI-driven world, an agent would record conversations, analyze customer interactions, and suggest the...

### AI Agents in Game Development: Challenges and Possibilities

> AI tools already speed up game creation. Learn what’s next as advanced AI agents promise deeper integration and major future challenges.

- Published: 2025-02-25

AI tools already speed up game creation. They spark fresh ideas and handle repetitive tasks. In contrast, advanced AI agents remain on the horizon. They hold promise for tackling large-scale asset management and integrated testing. This article explores today’s AI tools and the promising potential of future AI agents. We discuss the challenges and trends that may shape tomorrow’s studios. Today, many AI-driven solutions excel at narrow tasks. For example, some tools create concept art from text prompts or generate quick story outlines. These tools save time and boost creativity. However, the more comprehensive AI agents—designed to integrate deeply into game production—are still notoriously difficult to implement. In the near future, AI agents could work across multiple systems, coordinating tasks like asset management, code merging, and even on-chain interactions. They might link up with version control systems, documentation, and live data feeds. While these ideas are exciting, significant challenges remain before such agents become reliable at scale. This article lays out the current state of AI in game development and looks ahead to the innovations on the horizon.   Key Points Current AI tools address narrow tasks (e. g. , concept art, procedural levels) and yield quick gains; more advanced AI agents remain a work in progress. These tools accelerate asset creation, narrative design, and monetization but still depend on human creativity for authenticity.

We live in an era where digital products surround us and are an integral part of our lives. In fact, we can hardly imagine functioning without them. Digital products are available everywhere and at our fingertips. But are they truly accessible to everyone? Imagine your ideal app. It has features that make your life much easier, and you use it daily. There’s only one problem—some of its text is white on a white background. You cannot see crucial functionality simply because of how it’s designed. Does this example seem extreme? Perhaps it’s exaggerated, but what if I told you that similar usability challenges affect many people worldwide?   Accessible app design services What is accessibility, anyway? Accessibility in UX design is about creating digital experiences that everyone can use, regardless of their abilities or disabilities. Think of it as designing a ramp instead of just stairs. A ramp isn’t only for people with permanent disabilities—it also benefits those with temporary injuries, like a broken leg, and even people without disabilities. Accessibility is about inclusivity. It’s a way of saying, “Hey, we see you, and we want you to have a great experience too. ” What accessibility is not: It’s not about creating a separate, “special” version of your product just for people with disabilities. It’s not about sacrificing aesthetics or functionality. It’s not something that only benefits a small group of users. It’s not a trend—it’s a fundamental aspect of good design. It’s not as simple as adding an...

AI is getting better at making decisions. Too many tasks need constant human attention. Combine the two, and you get AI agents - artificial intelligence that can handle surprises (more or less). In fact, the technology of AI agents hold so much potential that Gartner expects this innovation to reach mainstream adoption within just 10 years. So, what are AI agents, how do they work, and can their benefit your business?   AI Agent development What are AI Agents? Artificial Intelligence (AI) agents are systems capable of performing tasks autonomously by perceiving their environment, reasoning through data, and taking purposeful actions to achieve specific objectives. These agents extend human intelligence, blending utility-based reasoning, reflexive responses, and adaptive learning. Unlike static software, AI agents can evolve over time, making them especially valuable in dynamic business environments. For instance, they can predict customer preferences or optimize supply chains based on real-time data analysis. Their ability to continuously adapt positions them as a cornerstone of modern innovation. Types of AI Agents AI agents can be classified based on their functionality and complexity. Some are straightforward, relying on predefined rules, while others are advanced systems capable of learning and reasoning autonomously.   At one end of the spectrum are simple reflex agents, which operate solely on pre-programmed rules. For example, a thermostat that adjusts temperature based on predefined settings is a simple reflex agent. These agents cannot adapt or consider the broader context of their actions. Conversely, model-based reflex agents incorporate an internal...

In modern game development, building a smooth launcher is crucial. It provides a reliable way to update your game, manage user authentication, and add new features. Many of us have worked with web-based solutions before. Still, creating a full desktop launcher brings its own challenges. In this article, we’ll show you how to build a cross-platform launcher using Electron. We’ll also compare it to a few other tools. Along the way, we’ll cover code signing on Windows and macOS, handling automatic updates, and tackling common pitfalls. Our goal is to help you avoid the hurdles we faced.   Key Points Electron leverages a Chromium-based environment, making it easier for web developers to transition into desktop app development. Tauri and other alternatives can offer improved performance or smaller app sizes, though they often require deeper knowledge of lower-level languages like Rust. Windows and macOS have different approaches to code signing and app certification, which can complicate your build pipeline. Auto-updates require careful handling of file checksums, version checks, and package distribution methods. Cross-platform builds often need environment-specific runners (e. g. , macOS VMs, physical Windows machines) to handle signing and packaging. Understanding the Cross-Platform Environment A typical multiplayer game environment includes: Launcher: Oversees game file downloads, updates, partial patches, and potentially user authentication. Backend: Stores and retrieves user data such as inventory, account info, or game stats. Game Server: Manages real-time multiplayer interactions, user matchmaking, and in-game sessions. Game Client: A desktop application that displays the game world and communicates with the server... .

Sifted reports a 30% drop in European VCs doing at least one annual deal, from 5,704 in 2022 to 4,044 in 2024. Some have slowed activity, while others may have become 'zombie' firms, managing old funds but not pursuing new deals. What is a zombie fund, and are the walking dead funds coming for us? Let's find out.   Get a zombiepocalypse plan What is a zombie fund? A zombie fund is an investment fund that lacks an active strategy or growth potential due to capital or performance issues. An example is Stride VC, which announced that it would not raise a third fund and ended partnerships with its managing partners. Typical characteristics of a zombie fund include: Depleted capital Stalled portfolio Fee-driven survival Illiquidity Extended life Zombie funds often face criticism for prioritizing manager fees over investor returns, a trend common in economic downturns or struggling sectors. How to fundraise in recession? The problems with zombie funds Zombie funds are a problematic phenomenon for investors, startups, and the sector as a whole. For investors: Investors' money remains tied up in a fund that isn't generating meaningful returns; this reduces their ability to reinvest in more promising opportunities. At the same time, they must continue paying management fees, even when there’s little or no active management or growth in the fund's portfolio. Finally, there's the illiquidity issue: selling their stake in the fund can be difficult, as secondary market buyers are wary of acquiring underperforming assets. For startups:...

Workforce shortages, technology burden, connecting patients and medical staff, chronic disease management. The U. S. healthcare system faces a cycle of interconnected problems: Staff shortages overwhelm workers, they are burned out and perform worse. Outdated technology adds inefficiency and strains them more. Limited care access and weak prevention drive chronic diseases. They raise costs and demand for specialists... who are scarce. These problems create a vicious cycle. In this article, we’ll show you how these problems can be solved using technology, especially AI. If you’re a decision-maker in a healthcare delivery organization in the US, this is a must-read for you.   Custom solutions for healthcare How AI can help with staff burnout & administrative burden PROBLEM SOLUTION Healthcare workers are overwhelmed by tasks and the aging workforce resists change. AI automation of routine tasks Smart task prioritization Automated documentation Easy-to-use support tools Healthcare workers face unprecedented levels of burnout.   According to recent data, 49% of practicing physicians experience burnout weekly. Many doctors and nurses approach retirement, leaving a growing gap in skilled professionals. Couple this with an aging workforce resistant to new technologies, and you get a critical challenge for healthcare organizations. The main culprit? Repetitive manual tasks. Much of this issue arises from systemic challenges. Healthcare professionals spend up to 35% of their time on administrative tasks. For a 15-minute patient visit, that means over 5 minutes are spent just on documentation. This administrative burden not only contributes to burnout but also reduces time for direct...

I’ve worked with many software teams. But collaborating with a game development team felt different. Their world is fluid, creative, and full of unknowns. They work in 3D, relying on immersion and nonstop experimentation. Traditional web or app projects are more predictable by comparison. I saw this contrast firsthand with Everdome. It’s a hyper-realistic metaverse platform where users create and customize 3D Spaces for interactive events. They do it through a web form, which—let’s be honest—complicates things. This process highlights the complexity of aligning traditional back-end systems with a game development workflow. My job was to build and manage the back-end architecture. Merging a robust back-end with live game environments wasn’t always straightforward. Real-time interactions and dynamic user setups added extra hurdles. In this article, I’ll show you how we tackled those challenges and share the lessons I learned along the way.   Key Takeaways from My Experience Understanding Each Other’s Context: I had to learn about level design, manual testing, and other GameDev-specific workflows. They had to learn about our back-end constraints and what is feasible to automate. I also discovered that UE5 prioritizes objects over arrays, so data transformation wasn’t always straightforward. Dynamic Problem-Solving: Game developers often jump straight into building solutions. They prefer real-time experimentation over drawn-out prototyping. This meant I had to balance quick wins with long-term maintainability. Enhanced Communication Tools: Tools like Swagger helped us keep track of the agreed-on functionalities. But direct conversations about changes, versions, and issues were still crucial. Mutual Respect for...

In today’s fast-paced business environment, understanding customer feedback is key to success. One of the most popular indicators used to measure customer loyalty is the Net Promoter Score (NPS). What exactly is NPS, how do you calculate it, and what are the most common mistakes companies make when analyzing it? Let’s find out! What is NPS? Net Promoter Score is a metric that measures customer loyalty to a brand, product, or service. Introduced by Fred Reichheld in 2003, NPS focuses on a single, crucial question: “How likely are you to recommend our company/product/service to a friend or colleague? ” Responses are given on a scale from 0 to 10, with customers divided into three groups: Detractors (0-6) – customers who are dissatisfied and may discourage others. Passives (7-8) – neutral customers who are relatively satisfied but not particularly engaged. Promoters (9-10) – enthusiastic customers who actively recommend the company. How to Calculate NPS? The formula for calculating NPS is straightforward: NPS = % Promoters − % Detractors Example Calculation: A survey collected 100 responses. 40 respondents are Promoters (40%), 20 respondents are Detractors (20%), 40 respondents are Passives (not included in the calculation). The NPS calculation looks like this: NPS = 40% − 20% = 20 The NPS score ranges from -100 (all respondents are Detractors) to +100 (all respondents are Promoters). Common Mistakes in Analyzing NPS Despite its simplicity, companies often make mistakes when analyzing NPS, leading to inaccurate conclusions. Here are the most common ones: Misinterpreting the Results The...

Customer retention is the key to sustainable growth in banking. Today’s market is crowded, and many banks struggle to keep their best customers. Retention costs less than constant acquisition. It leads to stronger profits, higher lifetime value, and a better brand reputation. In this article, we’ll show you how to keep customers engaged and loyal through cross-selling, (hyper) personalization, seamless experiences, proactive feedback, effective staff training, and more. We’ll also give you concrete steps you can take right now.   Key Points Retaining customers costs less than finding new ones. Loyal customers use your services more often over time and frequently refer others. Tailored, convenient experiences help customers feel valued. Acting on feedback shows you care and want to improve your services. Well-trained staff and smart tools lead to better retention. Clear metrics help you measure success and adjust strategies quickly. Understanding the Importance of Customer Retention Cost-Effectiveness Compared to Acquisition Acquiring a new customer can cost far more than keeping one. Banks pay for ads, promotions, and special offers to attract new clients. By investing in retention, you can focus on building a stronger bond with the people who already trust you. This often leads to higher returns and lower churn. As Marketing Metrics states, businesses have a 60% to 70% chance of selling to someone who is already a customer, compared to just 5% to 20% for new prospects. Over time, retention campaigns lower marketing costs and boost margins. Over time, retention campaigns lower marketing costs and boost...

Integrations are the essence of modern software, fundamentally coming down to the exchange of information.   Unfortunately, they are hard to generalize and are known as notoriously difficult topics to tackle.   The complexity comes mainly from the overlap between business and technology. Business means organizational challenges, reaching a common understanding, working with people from different cultures and backgrounds, addressing legal/compliance issues, and, at the center of it all - delivering value through integration. Technology is the way to get us there. All these factors impact the final shape of the solution. In this article, we'll dive into what makes integrations both inevitable and challenging, explore the hidden costs behind seemingly simple integration requests, and learn how to make better decisions about them.   Custom software development You need software integrations. Source: Google Trends. Note: Zapier was founded in 2011. Think about the universe of SaaS products you've come in contact with, apps within apps, and the need to connect everything. It's no wonder that the business of gluing things together gets bigger year by year. Companies like Zapier, Make, or Mulesoft are all about making integrations as seamless as possible. But here’s the twist: AI is changing how we think about integrations altogether. Instead of businesses manually deciding which APIs to integrate, AI agents are starting to do that work automatically—choosing, swapping, and managing services on the fly. If SaaS products become just another resource that AI agents use as needed, what happens to traditional software integrations? The complexity...

- Blog Tags: Fintech, Blockchain, Industry Insights

Cryptocurrencies and blockchain technology have taken the world by storm. They've introduced decentralized solutions and innovative financial tools that were unthinkable a decade ago. But with this rapid growth comes uncertainty. The lack of clear regulations has left investors exposed to fraud, market manipulation, and insufficient oversight. That's where the Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation, or MiCA, comes in. It establishes a single legal framework for crypto-assets and related services across all 27 EU countries. By standardizing business rules and clearly defining the management of crypto-assets, MiCA aims to provide the clarity necessary for effective regulation and oversight within Europe's crypto industry. In this article, we'll dive into MiCA's structure, purpose, and implementation timeline. We'll also explore what it means for everyone involved in the market.   Key Points MiCA brings a single regulatory framework for crypto-assets in the EU. It defines how issuers, service providers, and various token types—like stablecoins, NFTs, and utility tokens—are regulated. The MiCA framework aims to ensure investor protection, market integrity, and financial stability. MiCA Rules are rolled out in phases, and full compliance is required by December 2024. MiCA sets clear exemptions for decentralized applications, DAOs, and certain blockchain-based assets.   The Existing Regulatory Landscape for Crypto Assets Before MiCA, each EU country handled cryptocurrencies differently. This patchwork of rules led to confusion and oversight gaps. For instance, a crypto user in one country could access services that were restricted or regulated differently in another. This made cross-border transactions and investments difficult. Anti-Money Laundering (AML)...

The most basic facts about estimates are that: Business needs them They are inaccurate Time is money The reason for requesting an estimate is completely logical - as a business, you want to know when your piece of software will be ready and how much it will cost. When it takes longer than estimated, there's a reason to be frustrated since you feel that something is taking longer than it should and you're overpaying - then you request explanations. The reality is that it's like being angry at a fortune teller whose prediction didn't come true. That's why every developer will tell you one thing about estimates - they don't work. See this article: #NoEstimates, An Introduction. Sure, we can give you a number, but: Initial estimates often reflect wishful thinking rather than reality These numbers are typically generated based on incomplete information - they simply can't be accurate The real question is - why assign a specific number to a feature when we already understand what you want to achieve? In 9 out of 10 cases, requirements change after the first sprint. Here's what typically happens in projects - let's take a real-life scenario: Sprint 1: We create a backlog and plan basic...

You’re a business founder looking for a development partner to build your app from scratch. You’re wondering who to choose:  An all-in agency with both developers and designers on board. A software house and an external UX agency. While both solutions have their advantages, there are at least three reasons why the first option is the one you should go for. Let us explain why.   Design your software right   This is an excerpt from one of Pragmatic Talks episodes, Secrets of UX Design. Be sure to watch or listen to it if you want to learn more about UX design for business founders YouTube Spotify Apple Podcasts https://www. youtube. com/watch? v=LK6yX2ViA3s&t=1291s 1. Better communication Let's start with a little back story of how we created our first designer-developer teams. We started experimenting with embedding single designers into our development team about four or five years ago to see how it would work.   Before that, we had primarily worked with external agencies or with clients who had their own in-house designers. The worst-case scenario was when there was no UX involvement at all.   Even when there was a proper UX design process, the transfer of information between the agencies or clients and our team was often inadequate.   Our developers were not always motivated or didn't fully understand the reasons behind certain features or problem-solving decisions. Additionally, feedback from our team, such as their knowledge and experience, was not effectively communicated to the designers. This resulted in communication challenges and an...

Picture this: Your team is building the next big thing. The core product is almost ready, but then someone suggests adding "just one small feature. " Before you know it, your simple product has turned into a complex beast, your timeline has doubled, and your budget is spiraling. Sound familiar? You're not alone - we've seen this story play out countless times, but there's a pragmatic way to avoid it.   Beat your feature bloat What is feature creep (from a business perspective) Feature creep (also know as scope creep or feature bloat) is the gradual expansion of product scope through the continuous addition of new features, each seemingly essential but collectively dangerous. Let's look at some real-world examples: A messaging app that started as a simple text platform but kept adding voice calls, video calls, stories, and payments until it became too complex for users to navigate. An e-commerce startup that delayed launch by six months trying to match every Amazon feature. The results are substantial: Extended development timelines Inflated budgets Delayed market entry Increased technical debt Confused users Team burnout Missed market opportunities What causes feature creep & why good products go astray In our years of building products for startups and scaleups, we've seen feature creep emerge from seemingly rational decisions. Let's take a pragmatic look at why even the most focused teams can find their products slowly expanding beyond their original vision. External pressures The market can be a demanding taskmaster.

Our goal is to make complex ideas simple. We want to help you secure your transactions. By the end, you'll know how to keep payments safe.   Key Points Payment Tokenization Replaces Sensitive Data with Tokens: Tokens are random strings that stand in for real payment information. If stolen, they reveal nothing about the original data, greatly enhancing security. Tokenization is More Secure than Encryption for Payments: Unlike encryption, which can be decrypted if keys are compromised, tokens cannot be reversed to reveal sensitive data, making tokenization a safer method. Tokenization Simplifies Compliance with Payment Standards: By not storing actual payment data, businesses reduce compliance burdens with regulations like PCI DSS, saving time and resources on audits. What Is Payment Tokenization? Payment tokenization secures payment data by replacing it with tokens. A token is a random string of characters. It holds no meaningful information. If someone steals the token, they can't use it to get the original data. How Tokenization Enhances Payment Security By using tokens, businesses don't store actual digital payment details. This means even if hackers breach the system, they find only useless tokens. The real payment data stays safe on secure servers...

When engaging in a software project, it's crucial to establish a clear payment model that outlines how the client will compensate the software development team. This model will impact the project's dynamics, timeline, and overall success. So, how do you choose the right pricing model for your project? In this article, we'll discuss the 3 pricing models: Fixed Price Time & Material Fixed Budget, Flexible Scope The project management triangle The Project Management Triangle consists of three key constraints: scope, time, and cost. In the context of pricing models, each model handles these constraints differently. Fixed Price models typically fix all three aspects, potentially sacrificing quality or flexibility when unexpected challenges happen. Time and Material models keep scope and time flexible but may lead to unpredictable costs. The Fixed Price, Scope Controlled model attempts to balance these constraints. It fixes cost and core scope elements while allowing flexibility in non-essential features and timelines. Understanding how each pricing model interacts with these constraints is crucial for choosing the right approach for your specific project needs and risk tolerance. 1. Fixed-price model Scope: Fixed Schedule: Fixed Budget: Fixed Quality: At risk A fixed price model is a pricing structure where the total cost of a project is agreed upon upfront, regardless of the time or effort required.

The evolution of user interfaces Before we discuss how AI-powered human-computer interactions look today, let’s take a step back to understand the evolution of user interfaces and the approach to their design. Punch card interfaces Imagine a world where interacting with a computer required meticulously punching holes into stiff cards, each one representing a step in a complex process. This was the reality in 1945, a time when computing was confined to the realm of experts and data centers. Users would prepare a batch of punched cards, submit them, and wait, often until the next day, to see if their instructions had been executed correctly. A single error could render the entire process futile, producing no output or meaningless results. Command-line interfaces Fast forward to 1964, and a revolution had begun. The advent of the command-line interface transformed the way people interacted with computers. Instead of submitting a rigid set of instructions all at once, users could now input commands one by one and receive immediate feedback. This iterative process allowed for reassessment and adjustment, paving the way for more dynamic and interactive computing experiences. Graphic...

Have you noticed there are a lot of banking apps nowadays that make sustainability their selling point? The tendency is huge: in fact, out of 360 companies in the banking industry I analyzed, 62 have something to do with being “eco-friendly”*. That’s 17. 2% of all of them, or slightly less than 1 in 5–quite a lot. Is sustainability the future of banking or just a fad? Why do banks even want to be green? Is every sustainable finance initiative successful? (It's not). And, finally, what can YOU learn from them to build YOUR fintech app? Let's find out. *On June 12-13, 2024, I researched companies listed on Dealroom. I used the following search filters: founded between 2020 and 2024, industry: fintech, subindustry: banking. What is sustainable banking? Sustainable banking is a way of banking that considers the environmental, social and governance (ESG) impact of its practices. This means making their core business plans, choices, financial actions, and investments all work towards achieving the UN's Sustainable Development Goals and international agreements like the Paris Climate Agreement. Sustainable banking–along with ESG reporting, carbon tracking & offsets, natural capital accounting and more–is a subset of the climate fintech (green fintech) market.

### What is Data Tokenization and How Does It Differ from Encryption?

- Blog Tags: Fintech, Blockchain

Data security is more important than ever. With increasing cyber threats and strict regulations, protecting sensitive information is a top priority for businesses. This is where data tokenization comes into play. But what exactly is data tokenization, and how does it differ from other security measures like encryption? Let's dive in and find out.   Key Points Data tokenization replaces original data with meaningless tokens to protect it from unauthorized access. Tokenization helps businesses comply with regulations like PCI DSS by safeguarding customer data. The process involves identifying sensitive data, generating tokens, storing token-data relationships in a secure vault, and using tokens in systems. There are deterministic tokens (same token for the same data) and non-deterministic tokens (different tokens for the same data each time). Unlike encryption, which converts data to a coded format for secure transmission, tokenization is ideal for secure storage and less frequent data access. Tokenization can affect data quality, be complex to integrate into existing systems, and pose governance challenges. What is Data Tokenization? Definition and Basic Concept Data tokenization is the process of protecting sensitive data by replacing it with unique identification symbols, known as tokens. These tokens have no meaningful value on their own and cannot be reverse-engineered to reveal the original confidential data. Essentially, tokenization swaps valuable data with a string of characters that are useless without proper authorization. Importance in the Current Digital Landscape Nowadays, information breaches and cyberattacks are common threats. Personal information, financial details, and other confidential data are prime...

One crucial yet often overlooked aspect is UX writing, which guides users seamlessly through a product. In this article, I'll delve into what UX writing is, how it can enhance your product, how to incorporate your brand voice, and share practical tips and research practices to elevate your UX writing. 1. What is UX writing? UX writing is the art of crafting the texts that appear throughout the interface of digital products. It is meant to give users the most natural and fluid experience, by reducing cognitive load required to understand available actions and provided information. Take a look at a copy (often called microcopy) in buttons, headers, notifications, and descriptions in your favorite app. A person wrote all of that with a lot of thought, so you can quickly scan and move across the interface. Interestingly, he term 'UX writing' only came into the spotlight in 2017, when Google introduced it at their Google I/O conference In large organizations, the role of a UX writer is crucial. Take Booking. com, for example, where there's one UX writer for every five or six designers. These writers work closely with design teams to create concise, effective copy. In smaller companies or startups, UX designers often wear multiple hats, taking on the responsibility of UX writing themselves. It’s important not to confuse UX writers with copywriters,...

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is the hottest topic in the IT industry now, beloved by big tech, the largest corporations, and investors. If someone isn’t involved with AI, they’re out of the game. While the term ‘AI Bubble’ isn’t openly used yet, probably everyone on the street has heard that AI will take our jobs (it probably won't, but AI-based tools are already making it easier). As much as these predictions are true to some extent, and we’re likely witnessing a revolution, we’re still here and need to answer the question: how can we tame the power of AI? The business world abhors a vacuum, and as business owners or aspiring founders, we should consider how AI fits into our puzzle and impacts our work.   Key Points Focus on integrating AI as a functionality within digital services rather than standalone products. Identify valuable use cases for AI, especially in generative AI. Determine if AI is the core product, a feature, or solves a specific business problem. Avoid commodity categories and gimmicks. Evaluate your AI competencies, tool knowledge, budget, and existing business revenue to gauge the feasibility of AI development. Research existing AI solutions from major cloud vendors and companies. Choose tools with higher abstraction levels. At the start, hire generalists and skilled software developers with AI experience. Data engineers become essential only later down the line.

Personalized healthcare is crucial for patient-focused and effective medical services.   The COVID-19 pandemic has accelerated the shift to digital healthcare, highlighting the need for tailored care.   Let's explore how technology can customize healthcare experiences, improve patient outcomes, and support a sustainable healthcare system. What is personalization in healthcare technology? Personalization is tailoring a product to a user's preferences or needs. In healthcare: to an individual's unique needs, genetics, and lifestyle. In the case of more advanced health technology, we can even talk about hyper-personalization.   Hyper-personalization uses advanced data analysis, artificial intelligence (AI), and machine learning (ML) to create deeply tailored experiences. Unlike traditional personalization, which may rely on basic user information, hyper-personalization integrates comprehensive data points, including user behavior, preferences, and real-time interactions, to provide a more individualized experience. Why is personalization becoming “the thing” in healthcare? There are a few reasons why personalization is becoming one of the next go-to strategies for creating healthcare software. We can distinguish at least five key trends in healthcare that are contributing to the rise of personalized healthcare software: Digital transformation Firstly, the general digital transformation trend. The COVID-19 pandemic pushed healthcare to rapidly adopt digital solutions like virtual care and remote monitoring to continue providing care. These digital solutions offer convenience, affordability and better outcomes for both patients and providers.   The future of healthcare is digital, with patients demanding a more convenient experience, and more providers are expected to move towards digital healthcare delivery.

What if managing diabetes felt like fun? This is gamification—a strategy that uses game-like elements to make everyday tasks more engaging. While gamification has long been present in sectors like education, it's making waves in healthcare software development, too. This is a beginner-friendly guide that breaks down the core concepts of healthcare gamification into 5 easy-to-understand parts. Read now. BTW, here's a similar guide to gamification in banking. Check our guide for a step-by-step instruction on how to implement gamification into your business. 1. What is gamification & how it works You’re using an app to manage your health. Each time you take your medication on time, you earn points. You see a progress bar filling up, pushing you closer to your next reward—a badge for consistency or perhaps a discount on your next prescription. This is gamification—adding game-like elements like points, badges, and leaderboards to make activities more engaging. There are quite a few reasons why gamification works. Most, if not all of then, have to do with fulfilling our core needs.

In today's fast-paced tech landscape, staying innovative is crucial. Yet, building and maintaining a robust in-house development team can be challenging, especially for startups or companies facing specific skill shortages. This is where software outsourcing becomes valuable. Software outsourcing involves hiring an external, qualified team to develop or maintain your digital products. It provides access to a broader talent pool, reduces development costs, and allows your internal team to concentrate on core business activities. This approach is a popular option among businesses of all sizes. According to recent studies, the revenue in the IT outsourcing market is projected to reach $512. 50 billion in 2024. Software outsourcing comes in two main flavors: nearshore and offshore. Nearshore outsourcing partners you with a software team in a geographically nearby country, benefiting from similar time zones. Offshore outsourcing, on the other hand, involves working with a team in a far-off country, which often leads to significant time zone differences. The choice between nearshore and offshore outsourcing depends on your project's specific needs and priorities.

### How to make sense of banking personalization in 2025: 8 key insights

More than 70% of consumers expect personalized interactions from businesses. When they don’t get them, nearly 80% feel frustrated. In banking, personalization isn’t just a nice-to-have anymore—it’s a must. But here’s the challenge: a simple “Hello, ” in your banking app isn’t enough. Customers now expect AI-driven hyper-personalization, where banks anticipate their needs, offer real-time financial insights, and tailor services to their unique situations. So, how can banks deliver? Here are 8 key insights on how AI-powered personalization is reshaping banking—and how to use it to build customer loyalty. AI PERSONALIZATION FOR FINANCE 1. Personalization is not about sales—it’s about service Many banks see personalization as a way to sell more products. But that’s the wrong mindset. 💡 To be sure, personalization in banking is not primarily about selling. It’s about providing service, information, and advice, often on a daily basis or even several times a day. Boston Consulting Group found that successful personalization in banking happens when banks help customers manage their finances better—not when they bombard them with offers. Supporting stat: 76% of customers are more likely to choose a bank that offers personalization in financial services, and 71% already expect it as a standard. (TSB) Example:  Pain point: Sarah, a college student, keeps accidentally incurring overdraft fees due to forgetting about upcoming bills and keeping a low balance. Personalized banking solution: Sarah’s bank analyzes her spending habits and notices a pattern of overdrafts around the time her phone bill is due. The bank can: Proactively...

Gamification is the use of game-like mechanics in non-game contexts. You've probably heard of it in the context of Duolingo, a giant education app for learning foreign languages - but gamification doesn't limit to just education. Though still a rather niche topic, gamification in finance was slowly getting bigger and bigger... to the point researchers are now predicting the so-called omnipresent gamification in finance and banking. Gamification is not a catchphrase, but a serious strategy to implement into your banking app. In this guide, we'll discuss how and why you should do this, and share best practices and gamification trends we can expect to observe in the coming years.   Banking app development services What is gamification? Gamification, in simple terms, is taking elements from games and applying them to non-game situations.  It's about making a process more interactive and fun by incorporating elements like points, badges, leaderboards, challenges, and rewards into web and mobile banking. But why does it actually work this way? The mechanics behind games and gamification rely on psychology: Dopamine release: Completing tasks and earning rewards in gamified activities release dopamine. It's pleasant, so we're more motivated to continue. Loss aversion: The use of points or progress bars plays on our dislike of losing progress. Suppose there's a progress bar in your banking app that shows you how far you are from reaching your goals. You don't want to stop if there's just a 13% saving gap between you and your dream holiday in Acapulco... .

Product iteration refers to the process of continuously improving a product by making small, incremental changes based on user feedback, testing, and data analysis. It's a core concept in Agile software development methodology and is essential for maintaining a competitive edge and ensuring customer satisfaction. In this article, we'll explain how to effectively iterate on your product, why product iteration is a must-have element for any successful software product, and how to integrate continuous product discovery into the iteration process. What is product iteration? Product iteration is the cyclical process of making incremental improvements to a product. This involves: Building new features or updates. Measuring their performance through user feedback and data analysis. Learning from the results to refine and improve the product further. Repeating this cycle continuously to ensure the product evolves and adapts to user needs. What is product discovery? Product discovery is the ongoing process of research: understanding what users need, validating solutions, and making informed product decisions about what to build, how to build it, and how to improve it. It’s crucial to remember that product discovery is a process, not a one-time phase. You want to repeat it all the time as you progress in the product development process.  It applies to any stage of developing a product, whether you’re building a completely new app, or tweaking an existing product.

"If you don't want to spend money on product workshops, it only means you have too much money. " For years, we've seen companies rush into development without proper discovery, then watch as their projects crashed and burned. Products built without market validation. Features nobody wanted. Money down the drain. But after working with 100+ digital products, we've landed on a simple yet powerful approach: the Product Discovery Workshop. Today, it's a core part of how we build trust, improve our products, and deliver better outcomes for our clients.  Product Discovery Workshop Why It's So Hard to Build the Right Product There's no shortage of reasons why products fail: "We didn't understand what users actually needed. " "We focused on features instead of solving problems. " "We burned through our budget before validating our assumptions. " "We built something nobody wanted. " And honestly, a lot of companies have failed for exactly these reasons. They focused on implementation before validation or created solutions looking for problems. The result? Wasted money, lost time, and shelved projects. But what if we looked at it differently?   A Simple Starting Point: Define Before You Build Let's keep it pragmatic. What's the most effective way to ensure product success before writing a single line of code? Our answer: a structured Product Discovery Workshop. When to Hold a Product Discovery Workshop Timing is everything. Here's when a workshop delivers the most value: Pre-Development Phase When you have a product idea but haven't committed resources yet. This is ideal—validate...

### We've worked with 100+ startups and here's what we learned | OMGKRK

What do you need to launch your product or app idea as quickly as possible? Where should you start when entering the market? And how can you overcome the fear of failure? Check out the talk by Wiktor Żołnowski, Co-Founder of Pragmatic Coders, who was a guest at the March edition of OMGKRK Hangout, a recurring event organized by the OMGKRK community - a startup and tech community based in Kraków, Poland. Why Early Market Entry Matters for Startups Bringing an IT product to market early is crucial for startups, as it provides valuable insights, feedback, and reviews on their app or service. This allows companies to identify market gaps and refine their offering accordingly. A fast product launch also helps startups collect real user data—how customers interact with the product, whether they like it or not, and which features need improvement. Plus, it's the best way to reduce product development costs by avoiding unnecessary investments in features that don’t resonate with users.

Have you ever watched "Dune" or "Blade Runner 2049"? The visual aspects of these movies are pretty impressive - photos, colour pallet and even costumes. But having all of this doesn't mean that you will create a good movie, a movie that will make a profit for a film company. You need to have good actors who will create believable characters, memorable music, a great scenario, meaningful dialogues and exciting editing. All of these elements must work together to create a fantastic experience. And what is more, those films (like any others) aren't for everyone. Specific people with a specific taste will be satisfied. Similarly, just like the movie industry, IT and product development have their own rules and standards to follow. When we are working on a specific product, every element must work well to satisfy our customers. They are going to be the end-users of our application (or a website) so it is crucial for the project to focus on satisfying their needs and accurately addressing possible issues. Your customers will decide if your product is valuable to them.

- Blog Tags: Startup

Why should you care about metrics? During all my years as a mobile developer and now as a product owner, I was always fascinated by the particular breed of people I loved working with - founders. No matter the domain - weather app, challenger bank or new femtech device - the audacious vision they usually had and the I-don’t-know-but-I’ll-figure-it-out attitude is something that made working for them extremely rewarding. The most accurate description of this “founders phenomenon” and the impact it has on workers can be found in Steve Jobs’ biography written by Walter Isaacson. In it he states that Jobs possessed an extraordinary ability to convince himself and others around him, to believe almost anything with a mix of charm, charisma, bravado, hyperbole, marketing, appeasement and persistence. It was said to distort his co-workers' sense of proportion and scales of difficulties and to make them believe that whatever impossible task he had at hand was possible. Jobs was creating a reality distortion field around himself, and so are you Dear Founder. That’s why it’s so pleasurable to work for you. But is it optimal in the long run? A good proportion between people blindly following the vision and the people asking tough questions is a must for a business to succeed. That’s why I used to ask questions. A lot of them.

Interest in blockchain technology and blockchain projects has been growing rapidly, portrayed as the next revolutionary solution to streamline supply chains, improve product traceability, simplify trade operations and improve the efficiency of financial transactions. A lot of this interest has found its origin in investment trends surrounding Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. Although Bitcoin is an older blockchain platform that faces many challenges eg. including energy consumption transaction speed, the younger platforms like Ethereum, Cardano, XRP have been developed to help overcome these limitations and provide practical value for other business uses and applications. In recent years we have seen the deployment of many interesting layer-1 solutions like Ethereum, Binance Smart Chain, Cardano, Solana, Polkadot, EOS, and some layer-2 (a blockchain that confirms transactions faster and cheaper than a layer-1 blockchain network) solutions like Polygon (Matic), Elrond, Lightning.

Łukasz: Tell me, how does your work look like at Pragmatic Coders? Anna: Working at Pragmatic Coders is different from a typical product company as here many products are being developed instead of only one. Our goal is to help startups get their products to market as quickly as possible. We want to check the assumptions developed during the research as soon as possible. We test whether they are good or meet market needs. To achieve this, we need to focus on the essential functions of a given product. It is not important to improve the product at the initial stage but to determine what is necessary to implement the MVP (Minimum Viable Product). Ł: I think it isn’t easy to find an answer to the question you asked. How do you determine what to include in the MVP? A: It is not just my decision. We undertake it together with the Product Manager, team, and client. First, we need to define the problem we want to solve. Consider potential solutions, consult these ideas with programmers. We look at what the user needs most, what can be programmed the fastest, what is the most important from the UX point of view. The decision on the content of the MVP is a sensible compromise between different perspectives. Besides, the so-called “Nice to have” list is created. This list may include some cool animations or components that need to be crafted from scratch, items for which there is no time at such...

About remote work at Pragmatic Coders To safeguard employees from the COVID-19 outbreak and minimize the potential risk for our clients, as many companies worldwide, we recommended all our employees to work from home as a precautionary measure. Starting from Monday the 16th of March, for the next 2 weeks, we will be available as always, although we will work totally remotely. On the one hand, this is nothing new for us. Since the very beginning of Pragmatic Coders, occasional remote work was something we have been practicing a lot. On the other hand, moving the entire 60 people company to a full remote setup might be challenging. We have been predicting such a possibility at the end of February, so since some of our teams developed good practices and standards for remote work in the past we simply collect them and wrap together as a common company-wide standard and Remote Work Policy. Starting from the beginning of March we noticed that many of our employees are already trying to work remotely for a few days per week so we didn’t wait with Remote Work Policy and announced it at the beginning of March. That way people had a chance to prepare better for what happened. On March 11th we reminded about our policy and standards and announced a potential full remote preparation. So everybody was obligated to be prepared that from the very next day we might need to work fully remotely and the office will be closed... ... .

Many of Scrum propagators (mainly trainers and consultants who are “selling” Scrum) claim that thanks to Scrum Teams became hyper-productive.

A lot of companies are offshoring software development but not to India or other “cheapest” regions anymore. For example in Poland, software development outsourcing is cheaper than in US or UK but not as cheap as in India, China, Ukraine or Belarus. In general, nowadays software outsourcing is more popular than it was back then in the late 90s. So what are the other reasons for software development outsourcing if it’s not the money? ...

What divides it from others is a different approach from what we get used to thinking about “bank. ” There are no bank facilities in the streets, no leaflets, and no “elevator music” in the queue. There are no queues because Atom fits your pocket, and at the same time, it’s safe because it is the first entirely digital bank to be granted a full UK regulatory license. So Atom is an actual bank, not a “financial app. ” When Atom Bank contacted us in June 2021, we were excited. Every project sounds like the beginning of a new journey and a chance to work with another unicorn. The brief showed the complexity and challenge of developing the first fully digital bank in the UK.

Thousands of Somali men and women live in the US. Companies responsible for providing them with healthcare aren't aware of that, so those thousands of people can't access the medical services they need. The problem isn't limited to just Somalis. US minorities suffer from health conditions that could have been prevented if a medical care system had been adjusted to serve these communities. ChallengeThe client approached us with their large, legacy operational database containing PHI and other types of medical data. Our challenge was to build a platform that integrates and presents data to support the daily work of two internal departments. This platform would leverage both the client's existing database and external patient data, and could be enhanced by AI models with the potential to evolve into a SaaS solution. SolutionThe results of the collaboration between our client and Pragmatic Coders are two products. PATIENT MANAGEMENT PLATFORM: A management system tailored for health coordinators and, crucially, nursing staff. DATA SOURCE: A database centered on ethnic minorities to reveal hidden social intricacies and cater to their distinct needs. The solution concept is rooted in value-based healthcare and preventive care approaches. Our client believes that emphasizing...

The “cloud kitchen” concept“Cloud kitchen” (also known as a “ghost kitchen” or “kitchen as a service”) is a totally new, disruptive B2B service offered to existing, local restaurants. A provider like Kitopi offers to cook and deliver specific dishes on behalf of the restaurants in other, distinct locations (like districts, cities, and countries), that were usually out of their reach. What is with mentioning is that all the cooking standards, recipes, and procedures must be preserved during the whole process. This concept goes far beyond standard “shared kitchen” services available on the market. The benefits are obvious. Restaurant owners can focus on their main, traditional business when the ghost kitchen provider scales their sales locally and helps them expand to totally new locations (through online orders + delivery network).

Integration between components Our main challenge was to analyze and choose the right providers. Moreover, we had to conduct integrations between components. This task is definitely more complicated than it may seem at first glance. Primarily because the product will operate not only with the most well-known currencies such as the euro, dollar, or pound but also with the Polish zloty and the currencies of Scandinavian countries. We had to make sure that the selected providers would offer us the possibility of supporting these currencies. Secondly, the application has to give the possibility to exchange different Cryptocurrencies. For example, to store Cryptocurrency wallets for users, we had to provide Blockchain technology. For this purpose, we conducted an integration with a third-party provider. This gives us a whole range of functions related to the creation of...

ChallengePROBLEM 1. Organizing financial data Daily, Martyna had to go through a list of invoices from every department within our company that landed in her inbox, manually input the data into Google Sheets and Productive (agency management tool), and move the files to Google Drive.  PROBLEM 2. Invoice processing With so much information she had to manually enter into different systems, she was likely to make a typo. However, the biggest problem was the efficiency issue - it took her an enormous amount of time to review all the documents. Martyna sought a way to automate these processes – make invoice processing less toilsome. SolutionFirst, we had to understand the specifics of Martyna’s work: what the invoice processing workflow looks like and what elements can be automated. Since manual data copying from PDFs, scans, or images to Google Sheets was the most time-consuming aspect, incorporating optical character recognition into the process was a natural solution.  However, we knew that basic OCR systems wouldn’t be enough: they process...

The problem arises when the patient seeks treatment in multiple facilities. In most cases, each medical facility has its own database, which forces the patient to carry a folder with all their test results. Especially in countries that have not implemented government-based EMHR (Electronic Medical Health Record Systems) yet.
