Novity achieves certified status in the Claude Partner Network

Deploying AI at scale requires reliable engineering and proven technical expertise. To help technology and product teams bring generative AI models into production, Novity has reached a new milestone. Our engineers and architects have earned the Claude Certified Architect – Foundations (CCA-F) certification. This achievement has enabled Novity to officially gain Certified status in the Claude Partner Network. Here's what this milestone means for our AI integration capabilities.

Moving AI from test projects to production is one of the main challenges businesses face in 2026. Software companies, startups and digital teams need systems that protect their data and deliver reliable AI answers.
‍

This is creating more demand for skilled AI engineers.
‍

To meet that demand, Novity has invested in ongoing training for its technology and product teams. Our new certified status in Anthropic's Claude Partner Network shows this commitment.
‍

‍

Technical expertise at our core

Building AI solutions takes a strong grasp of large language models (LLMs) and how they work.
‍

To build these skills, Novity supported its engineers through the Claude Certified Architect – Foundations (CCA-F) certification.
‍

Building AI solutions takes a strong grasp of large language models (LLMs) and how they work.

This assessment checks whether an engineer can design, secure and manage software systems built with Anthropic's Claude models.
‍

Our team's certifications helped Novity join the Services Track of the Claude Partner Network with Certified status. This shows our ability to deliver reliable, well-documented AI solutions.
‍

This step also reflects the approach we have used since Novity was founded in 2019: we test new tools inside the company before we offer them to clients.
‍

We are our own first client.
‍

When Claude Code launched, we gave it to our engineering teams. They used it in daily work and tested what it could do.
‍

We then built on that experience in client projects. Today, we combine hands-on knowledge with certified technical skills to help businesses adopt AI.

‍

Xavier Lernould, Founder and CEO of Novity, explains:

Integrating AI into business processes requires practical action. Theory without code creates no value. But code without a clear understanding of architecture leads to technical debt.

By supporting our engineers through the CCA-F certification, we chose a rigorous approach. Achieving Certified status shows our partners that we understand the security and implementation standards set by the companies developing these technologies.»

AI rngineering in production: A cross-team approach

At Novity, Claude expertise is not limited to one specialist team.
‍

AI affects every step of software development. Successful integration therefore needs skills across several areas.
‍

We train and certify people from many roles, including software architects, full-stack developers, data engineers, DevOps engineers, QA specialists and Product Owners.
‍

This mix of skills helps us manage complex AI integration projects.
‍

For example, building an autonomous AI agent takes more than picking a model or writing prompts.
‍

Teams also need to understand business needs, connect AI to existing systems, manage data flows and meet security requirements.
‍

Our CCA-F-certified engineers look at all of these factors. They help businesses integrate AI into their wider IT systems instead of treating it as a stand-alone tool.

‍

Building AI delivery around technical expertise

Our engineers currently work with more than 15 companies. They help structure and deploy AI solutions while supporting adoption across technology and product teams.
‍

These projects cover sectors such as FinTech, B2B services, RetailTech and HealthTech.
‍

Our Certified status reflects the technical skills we have built to support this work.
‍

Here are four CCA-F skills and how Novity applies them to client projects.

CCA-F technical skill	How Novity applies it to your projects
Multi-agent orchestration	We design autonomous AI agents that work together using the Claude Agent SDK. This helps automate complete workflows, not just individual tasks.
Tool development and MCP	We use the Model Context Protocol (MCP) to securely connect Claude models to your internal APIs and databases.
Production reliability	We use prompt engineering and structured outputs, including JSON, to make AI responses more consistent and easier to integrate into software systems.
Secure RAG	We build Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) pipelines that allow AI systems to retrieve information from your company's private documents.

They need solutions that work with their existing systems, support day-to-day work and stay reliable as the business grows.
‍

As a technology and AI partner, Novity does more than connect an API.
‍

Depending on your needs, we support each step of AI integration. This includes finding use cases, connecting AI to existing systems, managing data, improving security and preparing solutions to scale.
‍

By combining our software and product engineering experience with Claude's capabilities, we help businesses build AI solutions that deliver real value.
‍

Our focus is on reliable, secure AI that teams can use in real work settings.
