Human Agent Squads is Harbinger's answer: composable, subscription-priced pods that take on the mundane, well-defined engineering work your team doesn't have the bandwidth to do completely, every time, not a scattered set of point agents to manage, but one coordinated workflow you direct.
You choose the pod composition based on what your team needs right now, more testing capacity this quarter, more requirements support next, and reconfigure it as priorities shift. A named human squad lead supervises, escalates, and approves every output, and an embedded quality layer continuously scores and improves consistency across the pod.
The result: engineering capacity that scales with your priorities, not your headcount, and quality that holds steady regardless of who, or what, is doing the work. Priced as a fixed monthly subscription, not per-seat, not time-and-materials.
Who We Help
Mid-to-Large ISV Engineering Leaders
CTOs, CPOs, VPs of Engineering, tech leads, and architects who need engineering capacity that flexes with shifting priorities, without the hiring cycle of adding headcount
AI-Native HR-Tech and Learning-Tech Product Teams
Engineering leaders at HR-tech and learning-tech ISVs who need a squad tuned to their product and domain, composed around their current roadmap priorities
Engineering and QA Organizations
Teams where full test coverage, complete requirements documentation, or full PR review discipline slips when release timelines compress
Key Problems We Solve
Output Quality Depends on Who Does the Work
Two engineers write two different test suites; two reviewers catch different issues. Human Agent Squads apply the same checks, standards, and coverage logic every time, so quality doesn't vary with headcount, tenure, or who's on call that sprint.
Teams Trade Speed for Quality
Compressing a release usually means cutting corners on testing, documentation, or review. Our squads take the mundane, well-defined work off the critical path so you can ship faster without lowering the bar on quality.
Teams Don't Have Time to Do the Whole Job
Be honest: how many sprints did your team write every test case a story needed, or fully document a call recording into requirements, rather than just enough to get by? Our squads complete the full scope of the mundane work every time, surfacing gaps your team never had the bandwidth to catch.
Scaling Delivery Means Managing More Point Tools
A testing bot here, a code-review plugin there, a documentation tool somewhere else, that's more to manage, not less. Human Agent Squads package this into a single, coordinated workflow you direct, not another set of tools to babysit.
Every Team Has Different Priorities
A backlog-heavy quarter needs different support than a release-heavy one. Squads are composed around your actual priorities, dial up testing capacity this quarter, requirements support the next, instead of a fixed, one-size-fits-all bundle.
Scaling Capacity Traditionally Means Scaling Headcount
Adding delivery capacity means recruiting, onboarding, and ramp time, and it's just as slow to scale back down. Human Agent Squads scale up, down, or reconfigure with your business needs, at a fixed subscription cost tied to outcomes, not headcount.
Human Agent Squads Services
Composable Agent Pods
Choose and combine agents based on your team's current priorities, requirements support, test automation, defect resolution, code review, scoped to what you need this quarter, not a fixed bundle.
The Agent Roster
A pod can include a Requirements Agent (drafts and refines user stories from Confluence and call-recording transcripts), an Automation Tester (auto-generates UI, data, and API tests on Selenium and Playwright), a Bug-Fixing Agent (diagnoses defects against the original requirement and ships code-level fixes), and a PR Review Agent (reviews every pull request for quality, standards, and risk), configured and reconfigured as your priorities shift.
Human-in-the-Loop Governance
Named human squad lead, supervision and escalation, approval gates on every agent output, enterprise accountability built into the model.
Quality Consistency Layer
Harbinger Quality Agents continuously score and improve AI-generated output across the pod, so quality holds steady regardless of team composition or turnover.
Elastic Capacity Model
Scale a pod up, down, or reconfigure it as priorities shift; fixed monthly subscription priced by pod composition and task complexity, not per-seat, not time-and-materials.
IP, Accelerators, and Frameworks
Composable Pod Model
A configurable roster of agents you compose and reconfigure to match shifting engineering priorities, rather than a fixed bundle
