Hey, Folks!

I am Prashant, Cofounder of Shovel.Company. Having spent the last few years as EM at Gojek, I learned how being data-driven simplifies many aspect of Engineering Management. Everyone wanted to be data-driven, but actually being such is operationally challenging.

While growing the team there, we realised that the problems restricting teams from building reliably at scale mainly lie due to lack of a holistic view of the software development process. Managing engineering data is painful, primarily because of fragmented datasets across 100s of tools.

We spoke to other teams in the last few months - and found the same resonance! with Odet, we have been trying to solve the visibility into the SDLC process. Odet Playground is a sneak-peek at what we’re building. It allows teams to get end-to-end visibility and tracing into the software development life-cycle (SDLC) processes.

What is Odet? An Intelligence platform for teams to view and diagnose potential blockers through end-to-end visibility into the SDLC process A custom query & rule engine for teams to design guardrails (policy-as-code) and track key initiatives Reporting made dead easy: removing manual spreadsheet wrangling by automating real-time reports across planning, development, review, and production

Odet provides one-click integrations with all commonly-used engineering tools. Our grand vision is to build a holistic map of engineering system design - increasing pace and reliability of your software delivery. Odet Playground is the first step towards our vision, and we would really appreciate your support and honest feedback

I look forward to your comments and questions on Odet!

How is this product different from gitprime/waydev/usehaystack etc.? Are you focussing on metrics of development lifecyle alone or do you incorporate production/operational data as well?
It's more of latter. We want to trace the whole SDLC lifecycle from story creation to production, with development lifecycle being one part of the funnel. Right now tools exist for each part of the lifecycle but the visibility and context drop significantly when we cross team and tool lines.

We are building integrations both up and downstream of development to give you a complete picture and let you identify and solve blockers as we feel that each function affects development lifecycle and looking it as a blackbox might just create local optimizations rather than driving a system level efficiency
