51 articles
Pull Request ActivityVolume of PRs created, merged, and currently open during the selected period.
Flow EfficiencyRatio of active time to total time on completed tasks — how much of an item's life is real work.
Median Time to Market (TTM)Time from task ideation to release in production — end-to-end delivery duration.
Total Active TimeTeam-level total time spent actively working on tasks during the period.
Avg Age of Work in Progress (team-level)How old, on average, the team's currently in-progress items are.
Unassigned TasksTasks in progress or in the backlog that don't have an owner yet.
Submitter metricsThe four sub-metrics that show how efficiently submitters move pull requests toward merge: Iterated PRs, PR Iteration Time, Responsiveness, and Time to Merge.
Reviewer metricsThe four sub-metrics that show how reviewers pick up, engage with, and approve pull requests: Reaction Time, Sharing Index, AVG Pickup Time, and TT First Approval.
Reworked TasksTasks that moved backward in the workflow — quality and clarity signal.
PRs Created (per member)Total pull requests opened by a single team member in the period.
Reviews Count (per member)Total PR reviews submitted by a single team member in the period.
Commits Count (per member)Total commits a single team member pushed during the period.
PR Comments Count (per member)Total comments a single team member made on others' pull requests.
Avg Member Time to MergeAverage time from PR open to merge for a single team member's PRs.
Avg Member Review TimeFrom the reviewer side: average time a member takes to act on PRs they're reviewing — first comment, commit, or approval.
Avg Member Time to First ApprovalAverage time from a member's PR being opened to its first approval.
AI Governance metrics overviewHow AI Governance measures AI tool adoption and impact across your engineering team.
AI Lead Time ComparisonLead Time for AI-tagged PRs vs non-AI PRs across the four sub-stages: Coding, Waiting for Review, In Review, Ready to Deploy.
AI-assisted PRsPull requests with at least one AI-tagged commit, counted against total PRs in the period.
AI-assisted CommitsCommits tagged as AI-authored, alongside the share against total commits in the period.
AI Lines of CodeLines changed (additions + deletions) sourced from Copilot telemetry and PR-level diff data. No content-type exclusions today; AI and non-AI cohorts use the same formula.
AI IntensityA composite per-day score combining AI activity, active users, AI commits, and AI lines of code. Used as the X-axis on AI-vs-delivery scatter plots.
AI Tool CostMonthly estimated AI tool cost — Copilot from billing seat data, Claude Code and Cursor from active users × seat price. Includes utilization view and notes on default rates.
AI User Engagement SegmentsPower, Casual, Idle, and New user segments — plus distinct weekly users and daily PR-merge intensity.
Team ConnectivityHow Leanmote classifies team interactions into low, moderate, and high engagement levels using normal distribution to optimize collaboration patterns.
DORA metrics overviewThe four DORA metrics, why they matter, and how Leanmote calculates each.
Deployment FrequencyHow often production deployments happen — and how to interpret the trend.
Lead Time for ChangesTime from code change to production deployment — and where the time goes.
Mean Time to Recovery (MTTR)Average time to restore service after a production incident.
Change Failure RatePercentage of deployments that lead to incidents, rollbacks, or hotfixes.
Flow metrics overviewThroughput, cycle time, WIP, and waiting time — the operational-flow metric set.
ThroughputNumber of completed work items per period — your team's baseline capacity signal.
Cycle TimeTime from active start to completion — the core flow-friction signal.
Work in Progress (WIP)Items actively in flight — early warning for context-switching and overload.
Waiting TimeAccumulated time items spend in non-active workflow states.
Team Overview tab — what each metric tells youField guide to the per-member execution table on the Performance Delivery dashboard.
Assigned TasksTotal items currently assigned to a team or member, regardless of state.
Avg Member Cycle TimeAverage cycle time of items completed by a single team member.
Avg Member WIP AgeHow old, on average, a team member's currently in-progress items are.
Done Active TimeTotal active-state time accrued by items the team or member completed.
Working TimeTotal elapsed wall-clock time across active workflow states.
Active DaysDays the team or member transitioned at least one item in the period.
Estimated HoursSum of estimates on items completed in the period.
Estimated vs ExecutedHow estimates compared to actual time spent on completed work.
Invested HoursTotal hours invested by the team or member across the period.
Story PointsSum of story points on completed items.
Sprint EfficiencyThe share of tasks completed during a sprint, counted at the task level. Includes important caveats about denominator scope.
Team Collaboration Network — overviewHow review activity and cross-team collaboration get measured.
Review participationShare of teammates who regularly review each other's pull requests.
Review latencyTime from PR open or first review request to first substantive review.
Activity distributionHow commits, reviews, and comments distribute across team members.
