Our Legacy & Mission
Ending the Communication War in Product Delivery
Born from 12 years of research and refined through the training of over 2,500 professionals, the DPS System is the final answer to the friction that destroys digital product success.
Anar Rustamov, PhD
FOUNDER OF DPS ALLIANCE
The Visionary Behind the System
Anar Rustamov has spent more than 12 years researching the theoretical foundations of digital product development. For 8 of those years, he built and refined what is now known as the Digital Product Summary (DPS) System, testing its principles with more than 2,500 participants in real-world scenarios.
Throughout this journey, the system operated under different names, but its mission remained the same: to end the “communication war” between business intent and technical execution.
With the rapid rise of LLMs and AI technologies, this research reached a turning point. In 2025, after achieving a complete proof of concept across both large-scale enterprises and agile startups, the decision was made to open-source the entire system.
"Our goal is rapid digital product delivery. We built this system so teams no longer get stuck in small talk, unclear requirements, or misaligned execution. We continue this mission through the DPS Alliance."
What We Built
One System. One Language. End-to-End Delivery.
CaDPM™ and DPS work together as a unified operating system for digital product delivery — from the first business idea to monetization.
The Methodology
CaDPM™
Canvas-Driven Product Management
CaDPM™ is a structured methodology connecting Discovery, Development, and Monetization through one shared language. It eliminates the communication gap between business, engineering, and AI agents — making every stage of delivery 100% aligned.
The Open System
DPS
Digital Product Summary System
DPS is the open-source implementation layer of CaDPM™. It provides practical canvas templates, backlog structures, acceptance criteria formats, and architecture governance tools — all free and ready to use in any project.
The Alliance
DPS Alliance
Global Product Engineering Community
The DPS Alliance is the organization behind CaDPM™ and DPS. We provide training, consulting, and open-source tools to help companies and professionals standardize digital product delivery in the AI era.
From Business Idea to Delivered Product — One Pipeline
CaDPM™ defines a 5-stage pipeline that connects every phase of digital product delivery. DPS provides the open-source tools to run it.
Discovery
Define the product vision, target market, and business requirements using structured canvases.
Architecture
Translate requirements into UI Canvas, API Canvas, and technical architecture using CaDAF™.
Development
Execute AI-assisted coding with measurable progress tracking via CaDPE™.
QA & Acceptance
Validate deliverables against acceptance criteria defined at the Discovery stage.
Monetization
Connect the product to leads, packaging, and conversion pipelines from day one.
