Adam Cohen Turned Fifty Noes Into Weave's Operating Thesis
The sales objection that killed Weave's first fifty deals became its product: measure the work, follow the AI, and give engineering leaders an answer they can defend.
Faros AI
Faros AI is an AI-native engineering intelligence platform that pulls data from the tools software teams already use - GitHub, Jira, CI/CD, incident systems and more - and turns it into a single view of how engineering work actually flows. Founded by the ex-Salesforce team that built Einstein, Faros helps engineering leaders measure DORA metrics, track delivery, quantify the ROI of AI coding assistants like GitHub Copilot, and automate R&D cost capitalization across the full software development lifecycle.
Jellyfish
Jellyfish is a Boston-based Engineering Management Platform that turns the signals from engineering tools - Git, Jira, CI/CD, and now AI coding assistants - into business-readable insight. It helps engineering leaders see where their teams spend time, tie that work to company strategy, automate R&D cost capitalization, and measure the real ROI of tools like GitHub Copilot. Founded by veterans of Endeca, Jellyfish has raised roughly $117M and serves hundreds of enterprises including Mastercard, Priceline, and PagerDuty.
Weave
Weave is a YC-backed engineering intelligence platform that uses LLMs to analyze pull requests and measure real engineering output. It helps teams distinguish between human and AI-generated code, introducing the 'Weave Hour' as a metric for actual work completed.
