Waydev Core engineering effectiveness is measured across four dimensions: effectiveness, speed, quality, and impact. Waydev Core 4 is the unified model that combines these dimensions into a single dashboard, built on the DX Core 4™ framework developed by Nicole Forsgren and the DX research team. If your team has struggled to connect code-level activity to business outcomes, this is where that gap closes.

The framework organizes insights into four core dimensions that reflect how engineering teams operate day to day:
By combining system data with contextual insights, Core 4 by Waydev lets organizations balance speed with stability and innovation; it makes sure decisions are data-driven and oriented toward outcomes.
Every engineering team wants to know where they stand. To make that transparent, Waydev Core 4 introduces percentile benchmarks that compare performance across the industry:
These benchmarks put your data into context, enabling teams to set meaningful goals and celebrate measurable progress.
Accompanying Waydev Core 4, we’re also releasing Hygiene 2.0, rebuilt from the ground up for deeper and more flexible analysis. It’s now possible to filter insights at Group, Team, or Nested Teams levels for detailed performance reviews and targeted improvements.

It gets even better: each of those graphs is interactive, so click any metric to show the exact unlinked PRs behind the metric. Now it’s easier than ever to trace performance patterns, reveal process gaps, and verify that things are properly aligned in engineering workflows.
Waydev Core 4 is live and available now on the platform’s launch page. Understand how your teams perform across the four key dimensions, benchmark.
