Adadot – analytics for better, happier developers

We are Jason and Alex and are very excited to be launching Adadot https://adadot.com/ in this community. We have spent 15+ years in remote tech teams in unicorns, start-ups and scaleups. Developers are increasingly under pressure to be more productive and ship faster. However, its difficult to improve what you cannot see or measure. My role (Alex) was in operations and I was collaborating with Sales, Finance and other teams. All these teams had systems like Salesforce and SAP that helped them quantify what “good looks like”. Meanwhile engineering (Jason’s background), was…

In plain words

Adadot is an analytics platform that helps engineering teams measure and improve developer productivity. It aggregates fragmented data from tools like GitHub and GitLab to provide visibility into development workflows and performance metrics. Built by founders with 15+ years of experience in remote tech teams, Adadot addresses the challenge of helping developers ship faster by making productivity measurable and quantifiable, similar to how operations and sales teams use analytics tools.

Uncover complex relationships between engineering pillars, understand the full impact of decisions you make. Every data point is benchmarked against 50,000 active developer datasets across your tooling environment. We put each data point through 4 layers of statistical analysis & normalisation, to assure that every number is robust & properly represents your devs. Engineering leadership is a two way street - many tools don't give the developers anything in return. Our fitness tracker for developers & their teams is designed to build trust, autonomy, and clear representation of their work Focusing only on work metrics doesn't necessarily show the whole story of an engineer's day-to-day.

    Hey HN, We’re building Weave: an ML-powered tool to measure engineering output, that actually understands engineering output! Why? Here’s the thing: almost every eng leader already measures output - either openly or behind closed doors. But they rely on metrics like lines of code (correlation with effort: ~0.3), number of PRs, or story points (slightly better at ~0.35). These metrics are, frankly, terrible proxies for productivity. We’ve developed a custom model that analyzes code and its impact directly, with a far better 0.94 correlation. The result? A standardized engineering output…

    Hey HN, I've been working on https://pornpen.ai, a site for generating adult images. Please only visit the site if you are 18+ and willing to look at NSFW images. This site is an experiment using newer text-to-image models. I explicitly removed the ability to specify custom text to avoid harmful imagery from being generated. New tags will be added once the prompt-engineering algorithm is fine-tuned further. If the servers are overloaded, take a look at the feed and search pages to look through past results.
