Last week, Nelu, our Chief Innovation Officer, spent two days at World Summit AI in Amsterdam. He wanted to find out what actually gets AI projects from pilot into production, and the answer had less to do with the models than he expected. Especially in banking and insurance, what mattered most was being able to show that an agent did the right thing, and that a person stepped in when it counted.

That is exactly the road we have been walking. Specs are written before an agent touches the code, our engineers hold the gate at the merge, and every rejected change teaches our knowledge base something.

But a good conference should also challenge you, and this one did. Nelu brought home three questions:
๐Ÿ”ท How do we check the AI in our products as carefully as the AI we build with?
๐Ÿ”ท What does it really cost to get one useful result?
๐Ÿ”ท And what changes when the next user of our APIs is someoneโ€™s agent rather than a person?

Weโ€™re proud to announce that the Foodbytes AI assistant, powered by Perzonaz, is now live!

Perzonaz was created within our R&D team, and Foodbytes, our client since 2021, is the first platform to use it. The result is an assistant that is native to Foodbytes, context-aware and equipped with Food&Agri skills from day one.

And this is only the beginning. Weโ€™re already preparing to bring Perzonaz into our other projects.

On World Mental Health Day, weโ€™re thinking about roots.

During our Roots & Rise Summer Programme, we planted flowers in pots we had painted ourselves, and learned that growth needs the same few things as flowers: good ground, a bit of care, and time.

The rest of Roots & Rise followed the same idea. We had sports afternoons at Common Ground, hikes that took us out into nature, and a full day at the lake for Deep Roots.

Studies on nature and โ€œblue spacesโ€ show that time outdoors and near water is linked to lower stress and better wellbeing. Looking back, thatโ€™s what this summer gave us: a chance to put down roots before we rise.

If youโ€™re in a season where nothing seems to be moving, be patient with yourself. Roots grow long before anything shows above the ground. Take a moment to notice your own growth, even the small parts of it.

Our Roots & Rise summer is just a few scrolls away on our page. And for what's to come, make sure to stay close.

October is Cybersecurity Awareness Month, and a common belief: AI makes software development simpler. Often it does the opposite.

Whether AI helps write the code or is part of the product, it adds new areas to secure:
๐Ÿงญ Threat modelling โ†’ STRIDE now needs AI threats like prompt injection and model abuse
๐Ÿ“‹ Requirements โ†’ OWASP ASVS gets a partner: the LLM Verification Standard
๐Ÿ—‚๏ธ Data โ†’ training and inference data need provenance, licensing and privacy checks
โš–๏ธ Ethics โ†’ bias, explainability and human oversight become design decisions
๐Ÿ”„ Operations โ†’ models drift and need monitoring, retraining, rollback and eventually retirement

Writing code got easier. Engineering it responsibly got harder.

Today, October 5, schools all over Romania celebrate Education Day with a day off, while much of the world marks it as World Teachers' Day. Either way, it's a day worth celebrating, though education itself never really takes a day off. It happens in the classroom and beyond that, in the day-to-day.

At COERA, that's something we care about. We try to create learning opportunities wherever we can, both within our team and beyond it. Over the years, through our partnerships with Babes-Bolyai University, Technical University of Cluj-Napoca and Transilvania University of Brasov, we've welcomed students into practice programs in Software Engineering, HR, and Marketing, where they could learn by doing and get a first look at what the work is really like.

Much of that learning also happens between colleagues: sharing what we know, figuring things out together and growing alongside each other.

So today, we're celebrating everyday education, and everyone who makes it possible: the teachers, the mentors and the colleagues who keep learning part of every day. ๐Ÿ‘

October is Cybersecurity Awareness Month.

AI has already moved from copilots that suggest to agents that act. That changed what we need to secure.

The good news: the principles you know still apply.

๐Ÿ”‘ Users get least privilege โ†’ agents get scoped, delegated access, never shared keys

๐Ÿงพ User actions are logged โ†’ every agent decision and tool call should be auditable

๐Ÿ”Œ Third-party APIs are vetted โ†’ MCP tools and external agents should be too

๐Ÿงช Features are tested before release โ†’ agent journeys should be simulated before going live

At COERA, we built Perzonaz on this idea: security, governance and auditability as foundations, not add-ons.

Through our partnership with Universitatea BabeลŸ-Bolyai, we usually meet Computer Science students at their practice workshops. This time, we did something a little different: we spent the day with the students from the .

We talked about who we are, what we do at COERA, and our practice and internship programs. These programs are often more than a short experience, as they can open the door to a long-term collaboration and be the first real step in someone's career.

We believe education doesn't stop in the classroom, and it's never too early to start building your professional path. Exploring, asking questions and trying things out while you're still studying can open doors you didn't know existed.

Thank you to the Faculty of Psychology for having us! We're glad we got to be part of this, and we hope to see some of the students around soon!

Roots & Rise, our internal program, closed out this year by going the extra mile, in every sense - the programme ran a bit past summer into a gentle September, and it wrapped with a hike last weekend.

The Nativ Activ Association helped us access a corner of nature close by, one that left us curious to find more spots like it nearby. Colleagues, their little ones, and one four-pawed friend came along for a peaceful stroll through the Aiton-Gheorgheni forest, and it made for a lovely close to the program.

But this isn't quite goodbye, just a change of season. Stay tuned, as we're already looking at what autumn and winter have in store.

The third Deep Roots session of the summer got off to a rough start, with rain threatening to spoil the day before it even began. But in timely fashion, the clouds gave way and the sun came out, casting a soft light over the lake for the rest of the day.

Once the weather settled, so did the group, into a presentation on AI-enabled software development that gave everyone plenty of food for thought.

Fitting, then, that the day ended with actual food - burgers by the lake, closing out the session in style, seasoned with good conversation and good company.

Our Deep Roots initiative returned for a second group of our colleagues, same lakeside setting, new topic.

This round's training dove into secure software practices with LLMs, working through the questions and risks that come with the territory.

And just like the first round, the training was followed by an afternoon in the pool, great water, and plenty of good conversation.

More to come! ๐ŸŒฑ
