About GitObs
We're building the future of development metrics by working as close to developers as possible, using Git as our foundation to understand what really matters.
Our Mission
At GitObs, we believe that the best development metrics come from understanding developers' actual work patterns. Instead of imposing external measurement systems, we tap into Git—the tool developers already use every day—to extract meaningful insights.
By working at the Git level, we capture the authentic flow of development work: commits, branches, merges, and collaboration patterns. This gives us unprecedented visibility into how teams actually build software, not how we think they should.
Developer-First
We work within developers' existing workflows
Real Metrics
Authentic insights from actual development activity
Our Approach
We believe in measurement that enhances rather than interrupts the development process
Non-Intrusive Monitoring
We extract insights from Git repositories without requiring developers to change their workflows or install additional tools. Your team continues working exactly as they always have.
Context-Rich Analytics
We go beyond simple commit counts to understand the story behind the code. Our metrics consider code complexity, collaboration patterns, and project context to provide meaningful insights.
Actionable Intelligence
Every metric we provide is designed to drive action. Whether it's identifying bottlenecks, recognizing high-performers, or spotting areas for improvement, our insights lead to better decisions.
Why Git as Our Foundation?
Universal Adoption
Git is the backbone of modern software development. Every developer uses it, every project relies on it. By building on Git, we tap into the most comprehensive source of development activity.
Rich Collaboration Data
Git captures not just individual contributions, but team collaboration patterns: who works with whom, how knowledge spreads, and where coordination happens naturally.
Historical Context
Git preserves the complete history of how software evolves. This gives us unique insights into long-term trends, seasonal patterns, and the impact of organizational changes.
"Git doesn't lie. It shows us exactly what happened, when it happened, and who made it happen. That's the foundation of honest metrics."
