Engineering, not token spend

Engineering finally has a speedometer.

And it isn’t your token bill.

Every merged change is scored for how much engineering it took. Months of those scores make an engineer’s multiplier.

Tap the card behind to compare

What it scores

We measure scope by how far a change reaches, such as the files, systems, and boundaries it touches.

Why it counts

Big changes count, but size is only one of six parts of the score.

What it scores

We measure architecture by what a change does to the system’s design, such as new abstractions, services, and dependencies.

Why it counts

Most changes don’t touch the design, so they score low here. Real redesign work gets credit.

What it scores

We measure implementation by how hard the logic is, such as rules, algorithms, and concurrency.

Why it counts

A short change can still be hard work. This gives it credit even when the diff is small.

What it scores

We measure risk by what it takes to ship a change safely, such as migrations, breaking changes, and rollbacks.

Why it counts

Shipping a risky change without breaking anything is hard work that a commit count never shows.

What it scores

We measure quality by how well a change is built, such as tests, docs, and clear code.

Why it counts

Agents make code fast to write. Tests and docs make it safe to keep.

What it scores

We measure performance and security by extra work beyond the defaults, such as speedups and hardening.

Why it counts

It’s a small bonus. Most changes score 0 or 1 here, and that’s normal.

Founders and CTOs

How they’re making the whole team faster.

“100% of the code we write is AI-first, and almost every feature we ship has an agentic element. GitVelocity provided insight and visibility in two ways that helped us 10x our velocity: detailed and actionable feedback on every PR, and rubric scoring to evaluate each engineer’s productivity. We are a competitive group, so seeing the benchmark has been motivating the team and the individuals.”

“We changed how the whole company builds this year, including people who are not engineers. What I did not expect was the week we turned GitVelocity on for everyone. Nobody was told to work differently and the work changed anyway.”

“I could always tell you whether engineering felt busy. I could never tell you whether it was getting better. That is the gap GitVelocity closed for me.”

“Measuring developer productivity is a huge challenge, and GitVelocity is a major step in the right direction. We use it to measure how much our team is accelerating over time and communicate it to the whole company.”

“Our developers asked for a score on every push, so they could track quality while they iterate rather than waiting for the final number. It’s part of how they work now.”

“Before GitVelocity, I was going off gut feel. Now I can see how the team is trending over time with a real number on our engineering output, and how we stack up against other engineering teams. That’s a big upgrade for any CEO.”

How much faster everyone got with agents.

How much engineering each engineer ships, against their own history from before the agents.

The gain is not evenly spread.

Rank how well each engineer directs their agents, against their own past.

Engineering, not volume.

A rename and a race-condition fix are not the same work. The score reads what a change does, not how many lines it has.

What counts

Your keys

Bring your own key

Add an Anthropic or OpenAI key. We call the provider with your key and they bill you directly, usually a few cents per change.

Your code

We never store source

We send the diff to the model to score it, then delete it. What stays in our database is the score, the six sub-scores and a short written rationale.

Not surveillance

Work, not workers

GitVelocity scores merged work the team can already see. No keystrokes, no hours, no screens — every engineer you invite sees their own scores and the rubric.

Your data stays yours

We do not sell or share your data. Built to European standards, GDPR and DORA compliant, with annual Tier 1 penetration testing.
