AI and automation
didn't just change how we build software.
They made Agile obsolete.

Radical Therapy + RAD Process is the operating system for AI-powered software teams who prioritize flow over frameworks, outcomes over velocity metrics, and human judgment over rigid processes.

Powered by Buildly

RAD Process is implemented through Buildly and Buildly Labs, the AI-native product management platform designed for modern software teams.

Why Agile Can't Keep Up with AI-Powered Development

Agile was designed for a world where humans wrote every line of code, manually coordinated every handoff, and planned in 2-week sprints.

That world is gone.

AI writes code faster than your sprint planning

Your team uses Copilot, Claude, and ChatGPT to build in hours what used to take weeks. But you're still planning in sprints, estimating story points, and holding standups designed for a pre-AI era.

Automation eliminates the coordination Agile was built to solve

Agile ceremonies exist to keep teams aligned. But AI-powered tools like Buildly Labs handle coordination automatically—surfacing dependencies, flagging blockers, and keeping everyone synced in real time.

Your process is now your bottleneck

While your tools accelerate delivery, your Agile process slows it down. Sprint commitments that ignore AI velocity. Story points that don't account for automation. Retrospectives that never question whether the framework itself is obsolete.

This isn't about doing Agile better. It's about recognizing that AI fundamentally changed the game.

Agile was built for predictability and manual coordination. AI demands adaptability and intelligent automation.

RAD Process + Radical Therapy is what comes next.

Radical Therapy + RAD Process:
Built for AI-Powered Teams

Radical Therapy provides the principles. RAD Process provides the methodology. Together, they form the operating system for software teams building in the AI era.

Radical Therapy: Three Core Principles

1. Flow Over Frameworks

Optimize for uninterrupted, high-quality work—not compliance with process. Your team's flow state matters more than your sprint board.

2. Human-in-the-Loop

AI can accelerate, but humans decide. Use AI to amplify judgment, not replace it. Automate the mundane, elevate the strategic.

3. Radical Transparency

Real-time visibility into what's being built, why it matters, and where you're stuck. No vanity metrics. No status theater. Just truth.

RAD Process: The AI-Native Methodology

RAD Process (Rapid Adaptive Development) is the methodology that implements Radical Therapy principles in AI-powered teams.

  • • AI-assisted planning that adapts to real-time changes
  • • Automated coordination that eliminates manual status updates
  • • Outcome-focused delivery that measures impact, not velocity
  • • Continuous adaptation instead of fixed sprint commitments

RAD Process isn't a replacement for Agile—it's what comes after Agile when AI fundamentally changes how software gets built.

From Principles to Practice:
Buildly Labs + RAD Process

Radical Therapy provides the principles. RAD Process provides the methodology. But without AI-powered tooling, you're still coordinating manually.
That's where Buildly Labs comes in.

Buildly Labs is the AI-native product management platform built specifically to implement RAD Process and Radical Therapy principles. It's not a project tracker with AI features bolted on. It's a product delivery system designed from the ground up for AI-powered teams.

✓

Implements RAD Process automatically

No more manual sprint planning or story point estimation. Buildly Labs uses AI to plan adaptively based on your team's actual velocity and changing priorities.

✓

Automates coordination that Agile ceremonies used to handle

AI surfaces dependencies, flags blockers, and keeps everyone aligned in real time—without standups, status updates, or coordination overhead.

✓

Enables radical transparency by default

Everyone—from engineers to execs—sees the same truth. AI generates insights, not interpretations. No translation layer. Just clarity.

✓

Amplifies human judgment, doesn't replace it

Buildly Labs handles the coordination busywork so your team can focus on strategic decisions and building great products.

Radical Therapy is the philosophy. RAD Process is the methodology. Buildly Labs is the AI-powered implementation.

Who Radical Therapy Is For

Radical Therapy is for teams and leaders who are done pretending.

Founders

You're using AI to build faster than ever, but your Agile process is slowing you down. RAD Process + Buildly Labs gives you a system that scales with AI velocity—not against it.

Product Leaders

You're caught between using AI tools and following Agile playbooks that don't account for them. RAD Process aligns strategy and AI-powered delivery without the coordination overhead.

Engineering Teams

You're using Copilot and Claude to ship 10x faster, but still filling out sprint boards and story points. RAD Process + Buildly Labs lets you build at AI speed without the Agile bureaucracy.

Distributed / Remote Orgs

You can't rely on standups when your team spans time zones and AI is shipping code 24/7. Buildly Labs enables radical transparency that works asynchronously and adapts to AI-powered workflows.

If you've ever felt like your process is slowing you down instead of speeding you up, this is for you.

Credibility, Not Hype

Radical Therapy isn't theory. It's practiced.

Published by Apress / Springer Nature

"Introduction to Radical Transparency for Software Teams" is the book that started it. It's used by product teams, engineering orgs, and consultancies worldwide.

Built in the real world

Radical Therapy emerged from years leading distributed teams, scaling startups, and shipping products that matter. It's been tested in OSS communities, venture-backed startups, and enterprise orgs.

Delivered via speaking, coaching, and tooling

Greg Lind (author, CTO, founder of Buildly) has spoken at conferences, led workshops, and advised teams on implementing Radical Therapy. It's not just a book—it's a movement.

Used by real teams, not just aspirational ones.
