But more capacity does not mean Cubeia has eliminated bottlenecks. With AI agents producing several streams of work in parallel, the company is still trying to find the right balance of how much work an individual can manage and review.

“The bottleneck becomes the person reviewing everything. That does not mean we never review the code itself. For sensitive or critical parts of the system, we still look more closely at the implementation, particularly from an architecture, performance, security and reliability perspective. But we no longer apply that level of manual code review to everything.” Grenstad says.
