FeatureFactory

For founders and non-technical leaders

Know if your engineering team is actually productive.

You sign off on the engineering budget. You should be able to see what it buys. FeatureFactory turns your team's real delivery history into a plain-language scorecard, benchmarked against transparent reference bands, so you can confirm you are getting ROI without reading a single line of code.

Start with one repository. Keep your tools, workflow, and code ownership.

What you will see

A scorecard you can read in a minute.

Connect one repository read-only and see how your team's delivery compares to industry reference bands and to its own recent trend. No dashboards to learn, no engineers to interrogate.

A scorecard you can actually read

Delivery health in plain language - throughput, speed, and stability - instead of a metrics dump that only an engineer can decode.

Benchmarked against reference bands

See where your team sits against transparent industry ranges (DORA Elite, High, Medium, Low) and, more importantly, against its own trailing trend.

Proof the money is working

Tie delivery to outcomes and confirm your engineering spend is producing durable output, not just activity. Priced against the value, not the seat.

Outcomes, not surveillance

We measure team and repository level outcomes and never rank individual developers. It is accountability for the system, not a stack-rank for people.

AI spend under control

See whether AI-assisted work is actually improving delivery or just generating more code you still pay engineers to review.

You own everything

Your code, your data, your IP. Transparent pricing with managed AI usage included in the seat price, with no surprise token bills.

From repo to baseline

Useful signal without a rollout project

  1. 01

    Connect one repository, read-only

    Your engineer selects a single GitHub repository in minutes. Access is read-only and you choose exactly which repo. Nothing changes about how the team works.

  2. 02

    We compute your baseline

    FeatureFactory reads work that already happened and builds a delivery baseline: throughput, speed, stability, and AI-vs-human contribution. No spreadsheets to assemble.

  3. 03

    You get a plain-language scorecard

    A benchmarked scorecard you can read in a minute, comparing your delivery to reference bands and to its own recent trend, with a clear read on whether it is improving.

Developer velocity

How your team compares, honestly.

Benchmarks are only useful if you can trust them. We compare you to your own trailing trend first, show exactly which signals feed each band, and balance speed against stability so the numbers cannot be quietly gamed. External ranges like the DORA bands are context, not a report card.

See how benchmarks work
  • We compare you to your own trailing trend first; external ranges are context, not a leaderboard.
  • Every band shows exactly which signals feed it, so the numbers stay transparent.
  • Speed is balanced against stability, so the metrics cannot be quietly gamed into a target.
  • Team and repository level only - we never rank or single out individual developers.

Stop guessing whether engineering spend is working

If you sign off on the engineering budget but cannot read a diff, you are left trusting that the money is well spent. "Are they productive?" is an unknowable question when your only evidence is how busy everyone looks and how often things ship late.

FeatureFactory turns that unknowable into a relative, defensible answer. It reads your team's real delivery history and produces a plain-language scorecard: how fast work moves, how stable it is, and whether the trend is going the right way. That is the ROI framing in our pricing made concrete - priced against the value, not the seat, and built to pay for itself if it saves each developer about 30 minutes a week. See it end to end in the Measure product.

Measurement, not surveillance: we never rank individual developers

The fastest way to alienate a team you cannot easily replace is to turn measurement into a stack-rank. FeatureFactory deliberately does not do that. We measure outcomes at the team and repository level, never individual developers. It is accountability for the system that delivers software, not a report card for people.

The benchmarks reinforce this. They compare you to your own trailing history first; external bands like DORA are context, not a live leaderboard against named companies. Metrics are balanced and gaming-resistant, so throughput never gets juiced at the expense of stability. Access is read-only and you choose the repo. Read the full position in our manifesto and how the bands work on engineering benchmarks.

Different from an enterprise software factory, on purpose

Enterprise "software factories" pitch top-down with six-figure minimums, layer per-seat pricing on opaque token bills, and often own the codebase they deliver while showing you vendor-claimed speed multipliers. We are counter-positioned on every one of those.

Adoption is developer-led self-serve that expands to the exec suite, so your team actually uses it. Pricing is transparent and predictable with AI usage included in the seat price. You own every line of code and every byte of data. And the proof is measured, audited outcomes - not a multiplier on a slide. See the side-by-side in our comparison with 8090.

Questions before you connect

Yes. FeatureFactory produces a plain-language scorecard of delivery health - throughput, speed, and stability - benchmarked against reference bands and your own recent trend. You do not need to read code to understand it. See how the bands work on engineering benchmarks.
