Swarmia wants your code to spend less time waiting
The Finnish engineering intelligence company follows the queues, handoffs, and habits that slow software teams down. Now it is asking whether AI makes the whole operation faster - or merely produces more work for the queue.
Tara AI and the Work Hiding Between the Tickets
A recruiting startup became a project planner, then asked a better question: what happens after the sprint board says the work is done? Tara AI follows the trail from ticket to pull request to release.
The Company That Put a Stopwatch on Code Turned It Toward AI
Software.com began by measuring the minutes developers could actually code. Now called Antenna, it asks a more expensive question: what does a company get back for its AI bill?
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.
