Problem

Middleby sought to accelerate software development within its engineering and IT operations.

Approach

Middleby identified India Engineering, IT and Blue Sparq as teams using AI to accelerate coding. Its May 2026 investor presentation placed this work among AI initiatives already underway. It did not identify the coding tools or describe the review process.

Results

70–80%of coding using AI in the named teams, according to Middleby; not a measured productivity gainCompany's own claim[1]

Takeaway

The reported percentage described the extent of AI use in coding. Middleby did not report a corresponding reduction in development time or defects.
