Why engineering orgs choose Plandek over Jellyfish

Everything you need to measure, improve, and accelerate engineering – from PDLC insight and Developer Experience to AI adoption – in one fully customizable platform built for the real world.

Complete PDLC insight 

Give every level of your org the visibility they need to improve. Understand delivery flow, bottlenecks, and performance beyond what you can see in Jira or Azure DevOps.

Drive Developer Productivity

Measure the metrics that actually improve developer productivity. Set up DORA metrics or build your own scorecards from 50+ engineering metrics.

AI engineering advantage

Turn AI across the SDLC – including agentic AI – into a competitive advantage. Identify constraints, improve delivery performance, and prove whether AI is driving business outcomes.

Built for engineering complexity

Plandek is the most flexible DPI solution available. The platform works across varied workflows, changing team structures, legacy systems, and imperfect delivery data.

Metrics that match your reality

Define the metrics, dashboards, reporting views, and data models that reflect how your org actually works. Build trusted insight around the outcomes that matter.

Enterprise-ready intelligence

Go deeper with Dekka, Plandek’s AI Engineering Assistant; custom time-series API access for connecting engineering data to business reporting; and AI risk and compliance reporting for the agentic SDLC.
