Exciting times this week! We got our first angel check, we got accepted into Alchemist Accelerator, and we are getting some great feedback from customers! Justin has been a huge supporter of my journey back to entrepreneurship for many years. He is a fantastic entrepreneur, business leader, and friend. I could not be more excited that his is our first check in. Alchemist Accelerator (https://lnkd.in/gReTjeud) is a minimally dilutive program for B2B Enterprise focused startups that includes executive coaches, sales coaches, mentors, off-sites, and a large network of VCs and early adopter prospects. With a brilliant team and hubs around the world, we are ecstatic to become part of the network. I'm so grateful to Ravi and his team for taking us through an extensive but respectful process. We can't wait to join cohort 39! One more thing, this week we got some amazing feedback from a customer: "I’ve made SprintReview a part of my daily routine." "Really love that I can see what people are doing in plain english." "A couple of months ago that one of the developers was really pushing himself. I ignored that. Now that I can see that in the tool. I want to reward that. Developers love justice." *frisson* Massive thanks to Royal, Corey, Matthew, Stephan, Bridger, Will, Daniel, Jesse, and Chris for all of the feedback! Exciting times!
About us
Software has eaten the world, but software developer (26M+ people) performance is hard to measure. Performance disparity is growing due to AI tools and remote work, which has made team optimization (Retention, Layoffs, Flattening, PIP) impossible. Current HR tools and 6-month review cycles are universally hated and don’t help identify top performers or quiet quitters. Meanwhile, engineering managers are spending over 21% of their time on reporting. Continuous, data-driven performance management can save software teams $millions in lost productivity and hiring costs. Actual AI is the “Superhuman for engineering leadership” that brings together integrations with source control, issue management, and employee engagement to provide actionable insights for VPs of Engineering, VPs of Product, and software development managers.
