Performance Insights

Performance reviews on one metric are unfair. On six, they're defensible.

Performance Insights plots developers and teams across cycle time, coding time, review time, merge time, commits, and PR volume on a single spider chart. The shape tells the story numbers can't.

Four comparisons that make performance conversations defensible.

Compare developers across every metric at once

Add up to three developers. Polygons overlay instantly. Where shapes overlap, performance is comparable. Where they diverge, you see exactly which metric and by how much. Fast-but-shallow looks nothing like slower-but-thorough on this view.

See developers against their team, not the strongest colleague

Plot a developer alongside their team's aggregate. A 6-day cycle time against an 8-day team average tells a very different story than the same number against the team's fastest coder. Context makes appraisals fair.

Benchmark teams to surface structural differences

Compare two or three teams' aggregate profiles side by side. High review time isn't always slow. It might mean larger PRs or stricter standards. The chart surfaces the pattern. The conversation explains it.

Switch to the exact numbers behind the chart

The chart shows the shape of performance. The table shows the numbers. Switch views without losing your selection. Same developers, same metrics, now sortable. Sort by review time to find your most thorough reviewers.

Four tabs. Every angle on engineering effort.

Configurable metrics

Choose which metrics appear on the chart axes: cycle time, coding time, review time, merge time, commits, PR open count.

‍

Isolate any polygon

Click any name in the legend to isolate that polygon. Useful when three overlapping shapes make individual profiles hard to read.

‍

Mix users and teams

Add any combination of individual developers and team aggregates in the same view. Compare a developer to their team. Or two teams.

‍

Workspace scoping

Scope the comparison to a specific workspace or project area. Useful when developers work across different repos with different contexts.

Frequently asked questions

How many developers or teams can I compare at once?

Up to three. You can mix individuals and teams in the same chart. One developer, one teammate, and their shared team average can all appear in a single view.

Can I compare a developer to their team average?

Yes. Add the developer as an individual and their team as a team entity. The chart shows both polygons together: the individual's profile against the team's aggregate. Outperformance and underperformance both become visible.

Which metrics are available?

Cycle time, coding time, review time, merge time, commits, and PR open count. Choose which three or more appear on the chart axes. Change the selection at any time without losing your comparison.

"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
