01Needs analysis
Takes the briefing, the recorded meeting or the conversation and returns what the company needs: problem, goal, constraints, open questions and possible paths.
Understand before spending
02Technical feasibility
Reads technical documentation, a tender, a vendor proposal or a service contract and gives an opinion: what meets the need, what's missing, which technology to choose and what it costs to maintain.
Decisions on facts, not hunches
03Processes and manuals
Maps how the work is done and writes procedures, manuals, handbooks and training. No system required.
The house way, written down
04Research and studies
Market, competitors, suppliers, platforms, brands and trademarks, with the source of every number and what was measured kept apart from interpretation.
Every claim with its source
05Building from scratch
With the documentation in hand, it plans the architecture, models the database, codes, tests and publishes. From requirement to a live system.
Any language and database
06No documentation? Document first
A system that only exists in someone's head: it reads the running code, the database and the history, writes the map and the rules, and only then evolves it.
Documentation comes before the risk
07Existing systems
New features, fixes, refactoring, performance and modernization, following house standards, introducing nothing the team hasn't agreed to.
Looks written by someone already there
08Technical documentation
Platform map, architecture, recorded decisions, data model, flows, integrations. Living, updated with every task.
A company asset, not one person's memory
09Documentation for presenting
Project scope, proposals, material for an internal initiative, reports for the board, built on measured facts.
The company presents its own projects better
10Task management
Connected to Jira, Trello, ClickUp, Odoo or GitHub. Writes the card, estimates, tracks and reports what each task turned into.
Just connect it. Writes only with authorization
11Security
Access, roles, unguarded routes, exposed files, credentials in code, tests with least privilege.
Before the incident, not after
12Databases
Modeling, keys and indexes, slow queries, execution plans, migrations with rollback, drift between environments.
Performance measured, not assumed
13Quality and review
Code review requirement by requirement, testing through the real path, test scripts, verification after publishing.
Review before testing, not after
14Technical team management
Support for the technical manager: flow metrics, knowledge concentration, onboarding time for new hires, what each task turned into.
Management with data, without surveillance
15Integrations and APIs
Connects systems, maps touchpoints, writes and documents APIs, handles payments, messaging and external services.
With contract, versioning and tests
16Estimation and planning
Every task starts with an estimate, and Octo measures estimated against actual to calibrate the buffer with you.
The second estimate beats the first
