Requirements Manager – Specification engine

The ReqPOOL Requirements Manager is ReqPOOL's namesake tool: it leads from raw sources to the confirmed specification with AI coding intent. Workshop videos, protocols, documents and ideation results are condensed into structured, build-ready specification documents – and from them the machine-readable build order for AI agents is created. Own the Spec, not the Code: the specification becomes the permanent asset, the code a renewable artefact.

How it works

01

Collect raw sources

Workshop videos, meeting minutes, business concepts, AS-IS specifications from App2Spec and SLIP as well as ideation and scope documents from the Estimation Manager are loaded into the project.

02

Structure the specification

The AI extracts requirements, business rules, data objects, screens and interfaces and maps them to a consistent specification structure – with a reference to the source of every statement.

03

Assure quality and confirm

Requirements are checked against IREB and ISO 29148 criteria and improvements are suggested; business and consultants confirm the specification and set the baseline.

04

Create the AI coding intent

The confirmed specification yields the AI coding intent – the machine-readable build order with acceptance criteria from which reqCoder develops the software and Signoff derives the acceptance.

Core capabilities

Multimodal sources

Video, audio, minutes, documents and existing specifications as input – no manual transcription.

Structured specification documents

One structure for goals, processes, requirements, business rules, data and interfaces.

Source traceability

Every requirement points to the passage in the video, protocol or document it came from.

Integrated quality check

Requirement quality checked automatically against IREB and ISO 29148, testable wording suggested.

AI coding intent

Machine-readable build order for AI agents – the interface between specification and agentic delivery.

Baseline and versioning

Confirmed specifications are baselined; changes remain traceable.

Value for our clients

  • Weeks instead of quarters: Workshops and documents become a specification in a fraction of the usual time – the AI does the heavy lifting, the business decision stays with people.
  • 100% testable requirements: Every requirement is quality-checked and worded so that Signoff can verify it as a test case.
  • Machine-readable build order: The AI coding intent makes the specification the direct working basis for agentic development – this is where up to 80% lower coding costs begin.
  • Permanent asset: Whoever owns the specification can have code regenerated – in another technology, with another model, by another provider.
  • Control instrument for procurement and acceptance: Tenders, acceptance and warranty reference the specification, not person-days.
  • No licence costs: The Requirements Manager is part of the ReqPOOL consulting service.

Typical use cases

  • New development: From ideation and scoping to the baselined specification as the basis for a tender or agentic delivery.
  • Legacy replacement: AS-IS specifications from App2Spec and SLIP evolve into the target specification.
  • Tenders and requirement documents: Business-confirmed, testable requirements as the contractual basis.

Data protection & compliance

  • EU hosting: The platform is operated entirely within the EU.
  • Data never leaves the EU: AI processing also takes place within the EU.
  • No training on client data: Workshop recordings, documents and specifications never enter model training.
  • Controlled access: Sign-in via Microsoft Entra ID, project-specific roles and permissions.
  • No licence costs: Part of the ReqPOOL consulting service.

Own the Spec, not the Code.
