AI has revolutionized the way software is built. By introducing techniques that enhance productivity, accuracy and innovation, the technology constantly reshapes workflows.
Regardless, many engineering teams still face a persistent challenge in establishing meaningful measurement benchmarks that distinguish value from risk- without distracting from the actual work.
While 90% of developers already use AI tools, adoption alone offers little insight without proper governance. The lack of monitoring capabilities often results in instability, increased failures, and costly rework.
Waydev, a Y Combinator-backed company and Gartner-recognized leader in Software Engineering Intelligence, is seeking to address this tech-work gap with AI itself. Through Waydev AI, a conversational and AI-native platform, engineering leaders will be able to more accurately measure performance and understand AI’s impact on software delivery.
“Engineering leaders don’t need more dashboards- they need clarity. Without proper measurement, AI generates more noise than value,” said Alex Circei, Founder and CEO of California-based Waydev.
“With Waydev AI, you simply ask a question and get the exact insight you need. We show where AI accelerates delivery, where it introduces risk, and how leaders can create measurable impact,” he added.
The platform connects with development tools that teams are already using, such as GitHub and Cursor, allowing users to ask natural-language questions like “What’s our AI adoption rate this quarter?”, “How has AI affected our cycle time and bug rates?”, or “Which teams are driving the most value with AI?”.
Waydev AI instantly produces data-backed insights in visual reports and tables, eliminating the burden or navigating multiple dashboards. Its AI capabilities include:
- AI Adoption Tracking, through which to monitor how teams are integrating AI into daily workflows;
- Intelligence Insights that measure developer output and workflow efficiency, enabling leaders to uncover hotspots and investment areas;
- Editable SQL Queries, giving users full transparency and control to review, customize and execute the queries behind each insight.
Product demos are available at waydev.com/demo, and the tool can be accessed at waydev.co/ai, starting at $4,999 USD annually for up to 50 contributors.
With their most recent launch, Waydev aims to equip engineering leaders with a new level of AI visibility- using AI itself. The company is posed to turn the growing flood of development data into measurable, actionable strategy.
