Get more than Git analytics

Swarmia gives engineering leaders, managers, and teams access to valuable engineering metrics — including DORA and SPACE.
Swarmia both feeds and empowers our insights. It allows our engineers to dive deeper into the metrics in a specialized environment, which would make no sense for us to build for ourselves.
Walter de Bruijn
Head of Engineering Productivity at Miro

Reliable data, out of the box

Swarmia allows you to focus on driving change with real-time, granular data that can be easily shared across the entire engineering team.

Instead of building and maintaining internal dashboards to track DORA and other key developer metrics, modern organizations choose Swarmia to measure engineering productivity.

Rather than basing conversations on a gut feeling, I can now walk up to a team and say ‘I can see your number of incidents is going up, why is that?’ Swarmia is the starting point to many of the important discussions we have in the engineering and product teams.
Martin Jagusch
Product Manager, Platform at Pleo

No harmful metrics

Just because something is easy to measure doesn’t mean it should be tracked. We’ve intentionally left out traditional Git analytics metrics like the following:

*
Lines of code (LOC)
*
Code churn and rework
*
Developer stack ranking

These metrics don’t help teams improve—they can lead to developers gaming the system and misguided managerial decisions. Swarmia focuses on the right measures to boost productivity without falling into the trap of superficial analytics.

We’re using Swarmia to improve anything and everything we can within our software development lifecycle. The end-to-end visibility means that we’re not limited in what we can improve.
Dan Gaskin
Engineering Manager, SKUTOPIA

Focus on team-level productivity

We know that the best teams focus on optimizing for the whole, not the individual.

Swarmia turns GitHub data into team-centric metrics and insights that help your engineering organization from developers to managers and from directors to VPs to make better decisions.

Some other tools focus on surveillance, not support. In Swarmia, you won’t see leaderboards ranking developers or teams from best to worst.

Get a complete picture of engineering productivity

Swarmia simplifies tracking and acting based on the engineering metrics that matter to your software organization.
PR cycle time
Understand how long it takes for your team to complete pull requests so you can reduce waiting times and merge faster.
Deployment frequency
Keep track of how often you’re deploying — and how often the deployments are failing.
Investment distribution
Use data to start conversations that drive the teams to improve.
Bug insights
Stay on top of the bugs your team is working on and the time it takes to fix them.
Batch size
Keep your batch size small to roll out features to customers faster and with less risk.
CI insights
Troubleshoot pipeline issues to reduce CI waiting times and costs.
Review time
Identify review bottlenecks and get your work merged faster.

“Swarmia helps us visualize hidden engineering work. This information allows us to recognize when we need to hire additional people, reduce someone’s workload, or split a team to improve their focus.”
Carsten Neuendorf
Engineering Director at Productsup

Here’s how it works

Watch our 12-minute product overview to understand how you can drive engineering effectiveness with Swarmia.
Swarmia taps into our toolchain - like Slack, JIRA, GitHub - and provides actionable insights for our teams. The combination of nudges through Slack to help pay attention to outliers in the daily work and some killer analytics features, like showing time investment into different stories on a calendar, really help carve out the inefficacies.

Swarmia reduces the need to keep actively searching for information on what is happening and where. With Swarmia you can trust that the important information reaches you when the event or actions happen.

Tiina R.

Software Engineering Team Lead
Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)
Swarmia makes it simple to gather engineering metrics in one place; this gives great visibility to the engineering team and helps them understand and analyse their performance, allowing them to define ways to improve. Without Swarmia, achieving the same would require a lot of manual effort and spreadsheets.

Andrea M.

Head of Engineering
Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)
Swarmia reduces me hours of research to get complete reports, such as batches, deployments. I use it on a monthly basis. The integration is easy to do, the implementation is quick, you'll get the information right away and their customer support team helps a lot. An ease to use this tool.

Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)
Swarmia was so easy to set up, and it keeps me apprised of our DORA metrics in a way that doesn't feel overwhelming. It allows me to see where we're getting stuck, and how we can improve our efficiency. I love the reporting on stale branches or if we need to review PRs faster. I have it linked to Slack and so I see reports every day.

Elena N.

Co-founder & CTPO
Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)
Swarmia provides insightful data and metrics that allow team leaders to gain a deep understanding of their team's performance. The comprehensive reports help identify bottlenecks, optimize workflows, and make data-driven decisions to improve productivity continuously. This data-driven approach has greatly enhanced our ability to meet deadlines and deliver high-quality results.
