Frequently Asked Questions
What data sources does Optimal connect to?
We integrate with the tools your engineering team already uses. This includes major source code repositories (like GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket) and popular project management systems (such as Jira, Azure DevOps, Linear, etc.).
How difficult is the setup and integration process?
Getting started is designed to be quick and straightforward. Typically, it involves authorizing secure, read-only access to your selected tools via standard methods (like OAuth). Most teams can be up and running in a few minutes.
Does your platform store our actual source code?
Absolutely not. We prioritize your intellectual property and security. Our platform analyzes metadata about development activities (like commit timestamps, PR interactions, merge details) and project management data, not the underlying source code itself.
How do you ensure our engineering data is secure and private?
Security is fundamental to our platform. We use industry best practices like encryption (in transit and at rest), secure authentication, and role-based access controls. We are committed to data privacy standards, as well as our adherence to SOC2 standards.
Practically speaking, how does this help my team ship faster?
Optimal connects the dots between your code activity and project progress. By visualizing metrics like PR Cycle Time and Deployment Frequency (DORA), analyzing sprint performance, understanding workload distribution, and tracking goals, you can pinpoint specific bottlenecks.
We use dashboards already. What makes Optimal different?
Standard dashboards often show isolated metrics. Optimal Insights provides context by correlating data across different tools (code, projects, CI/CD) to give you a holistic view of your engineering system with AI-driven insights.
My engineers might worry about being 'spied on.' How should I approach this?
We strongly advise positioning Optimal as a tool for process and system improvement, not individual performance tracking. Almost 80% of Optimal AI's customers give individual engineers access to the platform so that they can drive team and self improvement initiatives.
How quickly can we expect to see meaningful results or ROI?
You'll likely gain valuable visibility and initial insights within days of connecting your tools. Translating these insights into measurable improvements typically follows within weeks or the first couple of months.
