S4 Capital’s Monks Technology Services announced the launch of Dev² (Dev Squared) as part of Monks.Flow, a next-generation AI development environment created in strategic partnership with Windsurf, the leader in secure, enterprise-grade AI development platform. Dev² unites Windsurf’s cutting-edge coding toolkit with Monks’ expertise in digital transformation to help organizations rapidly innovate, align cross-functional teams, and operationalize AI across every stage of the Application Development Lifecycle.
“This partnership with Monks reinforces our commitment to helping enterprise engineering teams operate in a continuous state of flow,” said Gardner Johnson, Global Head of Partnerships. “Together, we’re not just making developers faster, but we’re enabling organizations to move more strategically by embedding AI into every layer of their digital fabric and unlocking new solutions.”
“Our clients increasingly see software development as a strategic advantage, and AI is the unlock,” said Adonya Ourshalimian, Head of Portfolio Strategy at Monks Technology Services. “With Dev², we’re giving enterprises the infrastructure to reimagine how engineering, design, and marketing work together, transforming developer velocity into real business impact.”
Introducing Dev²: A Full-Stack AI Development Hub
Dev² is more than a coding environment — it’s an intelligent orchestration layer purpose-built for accelerating the full Application Development Lifecycle, including:
- Discovery & Planning: Requirement gathering, stakeholder interviews, wireframes, and finalizing scope.
- Design & Architecture: UX/UI mockups, visual design, hosting architecture, and technology stack decisions.
- Development & Testing: Frontend and backend development, APIs, integrations, unit testing, manual QA, and security/performance testing.
- Launch & Scale: UAT, DNS/network configuration, deployment, post-launch support, monitoring, and performance tuning.
- Iteration & Optimization: Backlog queue management, incremental work, user validation, bug fixes, and feature enhancements.
At every phase, Dev² integrates AI to reduce cycle time, improve quality, and increase collaboration between technical and business stakeholders.
