Bring healthy visibility into engineers’ work
Improve the quality of conversations between software engineers and their managers with clear data visualizations.
Say bye to leaderboards and stack ranking
The developer overview answers one question: what has this engineer worked on? No numbers or unfair comparisons between teammates — just an objective view of ongoing and completed work.
Swarmia helps us visualize hidden engineering work. This information allows us to recognize when we need to hire additional people, reduce someone’s workload, or split a team to improve their focus.
