12 CHANNELVISION | FALL 2026 Writing code used to be the slow part of software development. AI changed that almost overnight. Developers now produce in an afternoon what once took a week, and every business that builds software is trying to take advantage of it. The trouble is that writing code was never the only constraint. Someone still must confirm the code works, is safe and won’t embarrass the company or put it in regulatory trouble once customers touch it. That part did not speed up, and the increasing distance between the two is where risk is clearly piling up. For MSPs and technology advisors, that gap and its solution is an immediate opening to help customers. Recent research from Sauce Labs and Wakefield Research found that developers are producing 741 percent more code with AI assistance, while release velocity improved by less than 20 percent. Organizations create far more than they can confidently validate and ship.
