Investment

See exactly where engineering effort is going

AI is making your team faster. Investment Profile shows whether that speed delivers roadmap commitments or gets absorbed by bugs, unplanned work, and unapproved scope, sprint by sprint.

The questions Jira reports can't answer. Investment Profile can.

Which work type is eating your sprints?

Every sprint hides a ratio. Roadmap stories, bugs, and ad-hoc tasks fight for the same capacity. Investment Profile breaks it down by issue type so you see what's consuming the team, not just ticket count.

Are priority Epics getting the bandwidth you committed to?

An Epic that gets two sprints of focus then quietly drops off never shows up in velocity reports. Investment Profile tracks story points by Epic, sprint by sprint, before commitments slip.

Is engineering spend going where business strategy points?

Map Jira labels to product areas once. Investment Profile shows the split across Platform, Payments, Internal Tools, updated every sprint. Every leadership review has a real answer to "where did engineering invest this quarter?"

Did the team complete what it committed, or what landed?

Say-Do Ratio tracks delivery on sprint-start commitments. Delivery Rate tracks total work completed, planned and unplanned. When Delivery Rate is high but Say-Do is low, the team is shipping. Just not the roadmap.

Four tabs. Every angle on engineering effort.

Issue breakdown

Which issue types (stories, bugs, tasks) consume sprint capacity. See the ratio per sprint, drill to individual Jira tickets.

Epic-level visibility

Story points by Epic, sprint by sprint. See which Epics get consistent investment and which get crowded out by ops work.

Product and allocation

Engineering effort split across product lines via Jira labels. See whether investment matches business priorities and which products are under-resourced.

Delivery accuracy

Say-Do Ratio and Delivery Rate per sprint. Together they reveal whether sprints break in planning or execution.

Frequently asked questions

Why is Hivel better than LinearB for AI adoption measurement?

Hivel measures AI-generated code that survives review and reaches production. LinearB relies on surveys and surface signals, which are outdated and cannot confirm how much AI code actually ships.

"Hivel has been phenomenal in helping us present our progress to leadership. Its insights into leading indicators have empowered our team leads to enhance review efficiency and ship features faster. Now, we are able to show the impact of our process changes, clearly identify areas of opportunity, and bring in a data-driven culture without spending time pulling manual reports."
Murali Swaminathan
Chief Technology Officer
"We were looking for a unique solution to understand engineering productivity and efficiency, with a single tool that could give leaders complete visibility. We evaluated other comparable tools, but none were comprehensive enough. When we came across Hivel, it checked all the boxes for measuring developer productivity across both AI and non-AI workflows."
Derek Mackie
Director of Engineering
"Using Hivel shone a light on the non-standard aspects of our work, emphasizing the need for crucial adjustments. The insights from Hivel helped us recognize areas for improvement, particularly in managing cycle times and streamlining development workflows. This guidance has been instrumental in our efforts to enhance operational efficiency and productivity."
Leonardo Pinheiro Ferrari
Chief Technology Officer
"Thanks to Hivel, we've seen a staggering 157% improvement in our deployment frequency. By identifying and addressing inefficiencies, and adopting best practices, we've significantly accelerated our progress. Hivel has been instrumental in our journey to operational excellence."
Chris Callander
Senior Engineering Manager
"Hivel has been instrumental in identifying areas for enhancement and guiding our strategic improvements. It has significantly contributed to our journey toward greater operational efficiency. The Activity and Dev360 features in Hivel have been particularly valuable for providing feedback to engineers during 1-1's, enhancing our communication and development practices."
Shiro Theuri
Chief Technology Officer
"Before Hivel, understanding our engineering team's dynamics was a game of guesswork. Now, with Hivel's clear dashboards and insights, our leaders have the clarity and time-saving tools they need to excel. It's been transformative in streamlining our operations."
Koti Reddy
Chief Technology Officer
"Incorporating Hivel into our daily operations has been a game-changer. It's not just a tool; it's a part of our strategic decision-making process, trusted by our leaders at every level. The impact on our engineering efficiency is undeniable and deeply valued."
Manoj Awasthi
Chief Technology Officer
"It has been great to partner with Hivel to get access to insights that help leaders at all levels gain visibility into bottlenecks and challenges that the teams face, build actionable plan to resolve them and track the progress over time. And thanks for the fantastic support!"
Ameen M
Engineering Manager
"Hivel has made a huge difference to how I manage my teams. Before every one-on-one or appraisal, I rely on it to dive into developer metrics and drive truly meaningful conversations. It helps me spot rework patterns, reward high performers, and benchmark our teams even against our US counterparts. The dashboards are intuitive, insightful, and honestly far more actionable than anything we get from Jira."
Paras Sood
Associate Director
"Hivel's insights have been pivotal in refining our engineering processes, elevating both efficiency and the developer experience. We're now making smarter decisions, faster, thanks to Hivel."
