CTOs, engineering managers, startup founders, product owners, software development teams and agencies that need to understand developer contributions, assess outsourced development and track engineering productivity.
About DevGhost
DevGhost is a web-based software engineering analytics platform that analyzes Git history from GitHub and GitLab to estimate the cognitive effort represented by code changes. It expresses estimated output as Ghost%, comparing it with a pre-AI baseline for a reference developer. Dashboards help founders, CEOs, CTOs and engineering leaders review delivery patterns across contributors, teams and repositories, investigate bottlenecks, compare internal and external capacity, and examine changes following AI adoption. Users connect an account or add a public repository for analysis. The service uses code changes rather than time tracking, screen capture or keystroke logging. DevGhost describes its estimates as signals for discussion and trend review, not direct measures of code quality or business value. A free plan includes signup credits and a recurring monthly allowance; paid plans offer larger credit allocations.

Optibot
Optimal AI’s flagship product, Optibot, is an on-demand AI agentic code reviewer that installs in GitHub, GitLab, or Bitbucket in under a minute to automatically catch bugs, security vulnerabilities, hard-coded credentials, and hidden risks, without ever storing your data or using it for model training. By building memory of your codebase and context-rich precision, Optibot reduces pull-request review times by up to 50 percent, frees senior engineers from repetitive checks, and boosts overall team throughput with real-time dashboards that surface cycle times, review performance, and productivity metrics. Beyond automated PR reviews, Optibot offers customizable agents for codebase complexity analysis, predictive maintenance, advanced bug detection, story-point estimation, and regulatory-change management, as well as integrations with JIRA for contextual reviews. Security-focused agents proactively scan for misconfigurations, race conditions, and vulnerabilities.

CodePulse
CodePulse is a software engineering analytics platform that connects to your GitHub repositories with read-only access to automatically track and analyze development activity so teams can see where time is spent, measure delivery health, and make data-driven improvements without accessing actual source code. It uses a metadata-first approach, analyzing pull request activity, commit history, review interactions, and repository patterns, to produce visibility into engineering velocity, cycle time, review wait times, team health scores, DORA metrics, and trend forecasts, helping identify bottlenecks, collaboration gaps, and opportunities for process improvements across your workflow. It emphasizes security and privacy by never accessing source code contents, secrets, or environment variables while providing dashboards, executive-ready summaries, and built-in playbooks that contextualize metrics into actionable guidance so leaders can communicate impact.

GitView
GitView is a git analytics solution for engineering leaders. Get the status of work across your engineering organization all in one view. You'll see code changes, pull requests, and reviews. Leverage meaningful metrics that help measure which code changes are actually impactful. Easy to read graphs and tables display impact scores and whether code changes are new work, churn, a legacy change (refactor), or a simple removal. Dig into DORA insights like deployment frequency, lead time for changes, and change failure rate. Visual displays of velocity, and extensive cycle time breakdown, help spot bottlenecks and improve efficiency. All data can be filtered by teams, contributors, repositories and more.
We emphasize transparency & customizability. You have the ability to see how each data point is calculated. Plus, using Raw SQL, we offer you the power to create custom reports, dashboards, emailers, and notifications so you get the information you need the way you want!
