Alternatives to Probabilistic Engineering
Probabilistic Engineering and 2 alternative tools evaluated on the Tekai technology radar.
Probabilistic Engineering
SubjectEngineering discipline accepting that AI-generated codebases cannot be fully verified for correctness, requiring architectural and cultural controls to govern systems where code is believed to work rather than known to work.

Alternatives
Spec-Driven Development
Development pattern where structured specification documents are written before code and serve as the primary input for AI coding agents.
