The Future of Requirements Engineering: AI, Agents & Intent Coding at the ReqPOOL Executive Autumn Cocktail 2026

Describe what you need, and the software builds itself? Around 80 guests from business and the public sector joined us at our Vienna office for the ReqPOOL Executive Autumn Cocktail to explore how close we really are to that scenario.

In his keynote, ReqPOOL CEO Florian Schnitzhofer explained how AI and agents are reshaping requirements engineering and how intent coding fits into the picture. As requirements are increasingly translated straight into executable code, the role of the requirements engineer is being redefined.

Guests then got to try it for themselves. Using a platform built by ReqPOOL, they wrote up their requirements and watched them turn into software prototypes on the spot.

Thank you to everyone who joined us for the open, engaging discussions! Turning developments like these into something tangible takes an ongoing dialogue between practice and technology.
