Coding assistants help one developer in one file. The Software Factory governs the lifecycle. Here's how the categories actually differ.
| Dimension | Single-agent coding assistant | Engyn Software Factory |
|---|---|---|
| Scope | One file, one developer | Goal → mission → evidence → release |
| Governance | Local to the IDE | Org-wide policy-as-code, signed ledger |
| Context | Files in the open editor | Vector + graph memory across the estate |
| QA | Run tests if you remember | Strategy, BDD, Playwright, evidence per mission |
| Release readiness | External to the tool | Evidence-backed go/no-go with hardware-token gate |
| Reporting | None | Exec, product, QA, agent, cost, risk reports auto-generated |
| Enterprise control | Per-developer | Tenant isolation, RBAC, audit exports |

Great for fast local refactors with full developer attention.
Great for status capture; weak on execution governance.
Great as test runtimes; weak on lifecycle integration.
Governs the full lifecycle — every other tool plugs in.
