Hey Product Hunt 👋 I know from experience that scaling a software development organization is hard. As your teams and codebase grow, complexity increases, things slow down, and your overall productivity suffers. That’s why we’re building Swarmia: a software development productivity platform that gives engineers, their managers, and leaders the insights they need to see what’s slowing them down and the tools to make concrete improvements. Swarmia connects the dots between your version control, issue tracker, and chat to help you measure research-backed engineering metrics (like DORA and SPACE framework) and use that data to make small changes that have a huge impact over time. What can you do with Swarmia? 👀 Gain instant visibility into your engineering organization 📊 Access healthy, research-backed software development metrics (no developer leaderboards or toxic metrics) 🚀 Identify and solve process bottlenecks to ship better software faster 🤝 Adopt Working Agreements with your team to improve collaboration and ensure focus on your priorities 🏓 Stay on top of your team’s work, speed up code reviews, and improve data quality with our bi-directional Slack integration Startups with up to 20 developers can use Swarmia for free. Bigger teams can try Swarmia with a free 14-day trial. Get started here: https://www.swarmia.com/ Swarmia is built on feedback so please let us know what you think in the comments!

Do you think this could be also relevant for a very small startup with a team of 3 developers? Or would that be overkill?

@alon_keren A small team like that might benefit from the functionality around pull requests (dashboards, Slack notifications) and the Work Log (which features did we work on). Our own team has used the product since we were 3 developers, and it's been nice. It's free for you, so at least should be easy to give it a try.

@alon_keren Not an overkill at all! Besides, Swarmia is free for teams with under 20 developers, and we have hundreds of small startups happily using the product. As your team grows, you'll get more value out of the product but it's definitely better to start sooner rather than later.

Fantastic! Clean UI. I manage a community of tech leads and Engineering Managers who continuously strive to improve team productivity, want to ship fast with better code reviews without compromising quality, and I know they'll love it!

Engineering productivity is a huge challenge - companies never have enough engineers to get the roadmap out in time. This looks like a great take on helping teams become more accountable and remove blockers! Curious what integrations are on your roadmap?

@brian_yam1 thanks Brian — you’re absolutely right about the feeling of never having enough engineers. Luckily, Swarmia helps your existing team get better work done in less time. Our next integrations will be Gitlab, GitHub Issues, and Shortcut, but not necessarily in that order. Thanks again for your support!

We've been early adopters of Swarmia here at Gorgias. It's one of the best additions that we have our engineering productivity stack for quite some time. Read our case study here: https://www.swarmia.com/story/go...

As a product guy, I've been running 4 developer teams recently. All of them are using their very own tools constellation, agile process, success metrics, etc. What I find the most difficult is having the working agreement maintained, especially when the product side is factored in. I like that you can maintain it explicitly in Swarmia and track the key metrics to get the right conversations started. Another good thing is data... In the lands of no estimates, logs are the only answer. With one of the teams, I had to dig through a year of closed Git issues to bring the case about very uneven delivery and start talking about what causes the pains. That's not a time well spent and cleaning up such historic data is cumbersome. That's where I find the idea of an analyzable log very apt to the challenge. I'd also say - put your culture next to the working agreement. Doesn't matter how great the tool is, if culture is sabotaged the tool won't save you. Actually, my insight was that when the team doesn't know what to do, they try to change the tool hoping it will bring structure and help find hidden capacity traps. Well, it can, but if capacity is indeed a problem - it can't, and changing the tooling aggravates it even more. One of my teams modified the dev-board 7 times in 1 month! Even getting used to running the process with it or driving any statistically significant idea of what works and what not was impossible:) The team was still reluctant to recognize some elephants in the room like items that were in progress for 2 months with being considered to take a week. I think Swarmia tackles lots of those issues well without extra overhead. If all parties committed it should definitely bring teams to a much better state with insights-driven increments and squeezing the most value and fun out of the dev process. I hope to try it with one of my projects if compliance allows:)

@artem_kovalyov Thanks Artem, feel free to reach out to us directly to have those compliance issues discussed. We worked with very different companies including some financial institutions, so we keep the bar high when it comes to security and compliance.
