Keep your most important numbers front and center with key metrics [beta]

Improving how your engineering organization works is a long game. Whether you’re trying to reduce cycle times, increase throughput, or improve deployment frequency, it helps to keep your north star metrics visible rather than buried three clicks deep.

Key metrics lets you select the indicators that matter most to your organization and pin them to the Swarmia front page. Every time someone logs in, they see the same shared view of your company’s engineering performance.

Choose from built-in metrics or define your own

Admins can pick from a curated set of ready-made metrics, including:

• Normalized throughput in stories and pull requests
• Average change lead time
• Median pull request cycle time

If none of those fit, you can also define custom key metrics using the same flexible reporting framework as the explore view. So whether your team cares most about a specific DORA metric, a code health indicator, or something else entirely, you can surface it here.

Key metrics is now in beta for all customers. You’ll see a preselected set of key metrics the next time you log in to Swarmia. If you’re an admin, you can edit them to match what your organization actually cares about.
