  • Uplevel
    Uplevel gives you a data-driven look into your engineering efforts, providing the business intelligence you need to report on team impact — without micromanaging your people. We measure a multitude of data points that reveal indicators of work, focus, collaboration, and process. To do this, we look to the everyday engineering tools that software developers use to get work done, such as code repositories, messaging apps, and calendars (e.g., Github, Jira, Slack/Teams, Gerritt, and more). You get a powerful data platform plus a team of consultants to analyze your data, helping identify blockers to success across your people and operational health.
