## Key Concepts

- **Agentic Engineering**: A disciplined methodology where senior human architects orchestrate specialized AI agent swarms to execute engineering tasks with deterministic quality. Unlike "vibe coding," agentic engineering maintains human oversight, architectural standards, and production-grade quality gates.
- **Software Sovereignty**: The principle that organizations should own their software, data, and technology roadmap rather than renting it through SaaS subscriptions. Sovereign software is a capital asset, not an operating expense.
- **AE Pilot**: Hatch Studio's proprietary platform for orchestrating agentic engineering workflows. Provides collaborative requirements capture, deterministic quality gates, real-time visibility, and optimal AI model selection.
