Software factory for GitLab and Bitbucket

A software factory uses AI coding agents to turn product requests into GitLab merge requests or Bitbucket pull requests while retaining existing CI pipelines, approval rules, protected branches, and release processes, eliminating any need to migrate repositories to GitHub. GitLab offers native options including the generally available Duo Agent Platform, external integrations such as Claude Code in GitLab CI/CD, and custom pipeline agents, while Bitbucket provides Rovo Dev and beta Agentic Pipelines for tasks such as code review, build troubleshooting, and test fixes. LightSprint positions itself as a cross-platform layer for GitHub, GitLab, and Bitbucket that lets product managers, designers, and operations staff initiate changes from LightSprint, Slack, Linear, or Jira, review codebase-informed plans and live sandbox previews, and send completed work through normal merge or pull-request controls. Its stated guardrails separate Builders, who can request and inspect changes, from engineering Approvers, who retain authority to review and merge, while supporting various AI models and existing subscriptions. The recommended rollout begins with small, recurring changes such as copy updates or UI fixes, preserves current governance settings, grants limited access to product users, and measures request-to-merge time against traditional ticket workflows.
