What Waydev is
Waydev is an engineering intelligence platform for tracking how software is planned, written, reviewed, shipped, and measured. It brings together health, delivery, and planning measures for engineering leaders, including developer experience, DORA metrics, cycle time, pull request insights, sprint commitments, resource allocation, and project costs. Its Waydev Agent can answer questions about costs, output, team performance, and AI impact using an organization's data. Premium adds tracking for AI adoption, impact, and return on investment. The platform connects with services including GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, Jira, Slack, and Azure DevOps, and is available as a web product, API, or self-hosted deployment. Enterprise customers can choose cloud or self-hosted deployment, including on-premises Git and ticketing integrations. Waydev says it analyzes copied Git metadata, deletes it after analysis, and does not retain source code. A free plan is available; Pro is $29 a month billed annually, and Premium is $49 a month billed annually.
