Philosophy philosophy at the time of founding 

Humanity first began using tools (like sticks)
2 million years ago,
and it has been 400,000 years
since we started using fire.
Now, we have come to have computers in our hands.

With the advent of the computer,
just as fire became accessible
to everyone 400,000 years ago,
it became possible for anyone
to interact with a computer
simply by touching a keyboard.


The Industrial Revolution
at the end of the 18th century
marked a major advancement in industry,
and by the late 20th century,
computers were integrated into industrial machinery.
As a result, industrial products were freed
from the constraints of craftsmanship,
enabling uniform production with high quality and reliability.

But what about
the software that drives these computers?

From simple flowcharts to HIPO,
structured flow, structured programming languages,
high-functioning compilers, and automatic programming,
various tools have emerged.
However, in our view,
the level of industrialization

in software development remains
too immature to be considered truly industrialized.

Many software houses
still rely heavily on human resources for software development,
often creating products that focus on
"getting it to work"
without regard to quality or reliability.

At Advanced Soft,
we strive daily to elevate software development
from an artisan craft (handicraft) to a true industrial level.
To achieve this,
we must constantly embrace cutting-edge technologies,
refine ourselves, and continue to move forward.

The name "Advanced Soft"
is not just about the fact that the software we create
is at the forefront of technology;
it carries this deeper meaning as well.
