Built by Engineers, Powered by AI
We are a software development studio that combines deep engineering expertise with the latest AI tools to deliver exceptional results for our clients.
Our Mission
At Code Cognition Studio, we believe software development should be fast, transparent, and affordable β without sacrificing quality. We leverage AI orchestration not to replace skilled engineers, but to amplify their output and eliminate unnecessary overhead.
Our mission is to make world-class software development accessible to startups, SMBs, and enterprises alike, delivering results in weeks instead of months at a fraction of the traditional cost.
The Founder
Marcelo Ruilova
Founder & Lead Engineer
Marcelo Ruilova is a software engineer and AI practitioner with over 10 years of experience building production systems across multiple industries. His work spans backend architecture, full-stack development, cloud infrastructure, and AI-powered automation pipelines.
After years working with traditional development teams, Marcelo recognized a fundamental inefficiency: most projects waste 60-70% of their budget on coordination, meetings, and rework β not actual development. He founded Code Cognition Studio to fix that.
Today he leads a lean team of specialized engineers who use AI tools (Claude, GPT-4, Copilot) not as a replacement for expertise, but as a force multiplier β enabling small teams to deliver what traditionally required entire departments.
Our Values
Radical Transparency
No hidden costs, no empty promises. You always know what we're building, why, and how much it costs.
Engineering Excellence
Clean code, solid architecture, and proven patterns. We build for maintainability, not just for demo day.
AI-Augmented, Not AI-Replaced
We use AI to eliminate repetitive work and accelerate development β human expertise remains at the core of every decision.
Mutual Success
We succeed when you succeed. Every project is a long-term partnership, not a one-time transaction.
