When we introduce developer tools like GitHub Copilot into the workflow, the question shifts from “Should we use it?” to “How much is it helping?” That’s where Waydev comes in.
While Copilot accelerates coding velocity and developer happiness, you can’t put a number to that without data. Waydev provides engineering managers visibility to track Copilot’s effect at scale on productivity, onboarding, output, and engagement.
This way.
What Copilot Fixes:
Copilot boosts engineering by autocompleting code that you type with contextual awareness. For most engineers, it abolishes tedious work and accelerates delivery.
How Waydev Calculates It:
Waydev monitors indicators such as Coding Time and Cycle Time to find out how fast code is getting from idea to production. When they come down after they’ve deployed Copilot, you’ve got quite a good indicator your productivity increased.
What Copilot Does:
You don’t need to learn everything from scratch anymore. Copilot helps new joiners to write production-quality code at a high pace by providing in-context suggestions.
How Waydev Calculates It:
You will see this within the time that new developers are taking to commit for the first time or merge successfully for the first time. The reduced ramp-up time is a signal that Copilot is streamlining onboarding and accelerating things.
What Copilot Does:
Less friction and increasing confidence cause engineers to commit more regularly. That maintains momentum and gains visibility throughout the team.
How Waydev Calculates It:
Waydev monitors commit frequency over time. An upward trend after adopting Copilot suggests that engineers are moving faster and shipping in smaller, more consistent chunks.
What Copilot alters:
More interactive coding with the aid of AI. More focused time is being spent at editors by developers, and often report feeling more motivated.
How Waydev Measures It:
Keep an eye on indicators such as Active Coding Days. If you see more regular coding on the team, that is a positive indication that engagement is on the rise. Waydev assists you with this at both individual and team levels.
GitHub Copilot can bring radical advances in speed, quality, and developer satisfaction, if you can measure its impact. That’s where Waydev comes in. You don’t guess. You have empirical evidence of how your engineering team’s performance is being changed by AI. As software-based AI develops on its own, software combined with real-time analysis places you one step ahead of your competitors: getting your team to move faster, onboard faster, and remain more engaged.
