About

LinearB is a software delivery intelligence platform that gives engineering leaders visibility into team workflows, productivity, and bottlenecks by integrating data from GitHub, GitLab, Jira, and CI/CD pipelines. The platform surfaces DORA metrics, cycle time, throughput, and SPACE framework measurements, translates R&D activity into business impact language for executives, and uses AI to automate code review assignments and enforce engineering best practices. Founded in 2019, over 3,000 engineering leaders globally use LinearB to continuously improve delivery operations, reduce cycle time, and justify R&D investment. The company coined the term Software Delivery Intelligence in 2020 to define the category of tooling that connects engineering metrics to business outcomes, differentiating from traditional APM and project management tools.
