# Peakommit

*/Startups/Peakommit*

## Startup Overview

This engineering intelligence layer connects source code directly to release outcomes by mapping raw git commits to deployment success rates. The system ingests version control histories and deployment logs to identify which code patterns and commit structures correlate with stable releases versus rollbacks. Engineering managers receive immediate visibility into delivery reliability without requiring developers to log time or tag their work.

Traditional engineering metrics platforms like LinearB and Jellyfish rely on complex configurations, issue tracker hygiene, and heavy dashboarding to measure productivity. Development teams lose hours to manual release tracking and correlating broken builds back to specific feature branches. This system bypasses project management overhead entirely, operating completely zero-config for developers to provide an unadulterated view of delivery health based solely on raw code changes.

Removing the need for manual data entry protects developer focus while guaranteeing metric accuracy. The financial model aligns directly with engineering outcomes, pricing the service exclusively per successful deployment rather than per user seat. Organizations pay only when their code reaches production reliably, creating a strict boundary between operational costs and actual software delivery.

## Startup Founding Hypothesis

## Startup Offer

**Proof**:
- Targeting complete elimination of manual spreadsheet-based release tracking for engineering managers.
- Aims to correlate 100% of production rollbacks to their exact source commits instantly.
- Designed to provide baseline deployment reliability metrics within the first 24 hours of connection.
**Tiers**:
- Name: Standard Release · Price: ~$5–$12 per successful deployment · Inclusions: Unlimited developer seats, automated git-to-deployment mapping, standard CI/CD webhook listening, and core release success dashboards.
- Name: Advanced Pipeline · Price: ~$15–$25 per successful deployment · Inclusions: Custom failure-state definitions, automated rollback detection, intended incident management integrations, and advanced DORA metrics correlation.
**Guarantee**: Billing is strictly tied to successful releases; if a deployment fails, triggers a rollback, or cannot be successfully mapped to its source commits, you are not charged.
**Business Function**: ProvideService
**Objection Handlers**:
- Objection: Per-deployment pricing penalizes teams with mature, high-frequency CI/CD. Rebuttal: Volume tiering automatically caps monthly spend, ensuring costs plateau while maintaining alignment with delivered value.
- Objection: Developers hate having their output tracked and measured. Rebuttal: The platform exclusively measures system-level deployment reliability and explicitly avoids tracking individual developer productivity or lines of code.
- Objection: We use a complex, non-standard branching strategy. Rebuttal: Peakommit is designed to track raw commit hashes through the pipeline payload, making branch naming conventions irrelevant.

## Startup Buyer Chain

**Chain**: Peakommit → Engineering Manager → Software Development Team
**Gtm Motion**: Acquires initial users through a self-serve motion where engineering managers connect a single Git repository to measure baseline deployment success. Expands automatically across the engineering organization as more teams onboard and total successful deployment volume increases.
**Agent Channel**: Intended for listing in the GitHub Copilot Extension registry and MCP tool catalogs, allowing autonomous coding agents to query historical deployment success rates for specific code paths before generating commits.
**Primary Channel**: GitHub Marketplace and GitLab Integration directory searches for release metrics, deployment tracking, or DORA metrics.

## Startup Proof Points

_Illustrative — target and order-of-magnitude estimate figures, not an achieved track record (this Thing is concept-stage)._

**Pilot Goals**:
- 14-day staging environment integration targeting automated mapping of raw commit hashes to deployment webhooks without requiring changes to existing branching strategies
- 30-day production shadow pilot aiming to demonstrate a 100 percent capture rate of deployment successes and failures to validate the usage-based billing mechanism
**Target Metrics**:
- Target: 100% correlation of production rollbacks to specific source commit hashes
- Aim: 0 manual spreadsheet entries required for weekly release tracking
- Target: 24-hour baseline establishment for DORA deployment reliability metrics
- Aim: 0 billing charges for failed or rolled-back deployments
**Target Case Studies**:
- Mid-sized SaaS company Engineering Manager: Transforming from manual spreadsheet release tracking to automated git-to-deployment mapping, eliminating weekend release coordination
- Enterprise fintech VP of Engineering: Achieving instant rollback correlation to exact source commits, reducing incident mean-time-to-recovery
- High-growth e-commerce DevOps Lead: Implementing usage-based deployment tracking that aligns CI/CD tooling costs directly with successful production releases
**Testimonial Targets**:
- Engineering Manager: Relief at never having to update another release tracking spreadsheet or manually hunt down which commits caused a deployment failure
- DevOps Lead: Appreciation that the usage-based pricing model strictly aligns vendor costs with actual successful production deployments rather than static developer seats
- VP of Engineering: Validation that the platform strictly tracks system-level deployment reliability without measuring individual developer productivity

## Startup Top Risks

**Risks**:
- Severity: existential · Description: Customers manipulate webhook definitions or deployment pipelines to mask successful deployments and avoid triggering the usage-based billing events. · Mitigation Status: unmitigated
- Severity: high · Description: GitHub or GitLab restricts API access or heavily throttles payload limits, breaking the zero-config commit ingestion engine. · Mitigation Status: in-progress
- Severity: moderate · Description: Developers heavily use squash-merging or rebase operations that rewrite git history, corrupting the raw commit mapping data. · Mitigation Status: in-progress
- Severity: moderate · Description: Incumbent engineering metrics platforms like LinearB replicate the commit-to-deployment tracking and bundle it into existing enterprise subscriptions. · Mitigation Status: unmitigated

## Startup Story Brand

**Hero**:
- **Need**: to be the technical leader who masters system reliability, not the one chasing release logs
- **Want**: to accurately map every git commit to its specific production outcome
- **Identity**: the engineering manager at a high-growth software company
**Plan**:
- Step: Push Code · Detail: Commit your changes to GitHub or GitLab as you normally do without changing your workflow.
- Step: Audit Deployments · Detail: Review the automated mapping of raw commits to production success rates in your dashboard.
- Step: Scale Safely · Detail: Optimize your pipeline using real-time DORA metrics and automated rollback detection.
**Guide**:
- **Empathy**: You shouldn't still be hunting for the commit that broke production. LinearB wasn't built to track every raw hash through a non-standard branching strategy.
**Problem**:
- **Villain**: manual release tracking
- **External**: Tracking deployment success requires hours of manual cross-referencing between GitHub commits, Jenkins build logs, and Jira tickets.
- **Internal**: You feel blind to the technical debt and risk hidden within your own CI/CD pipeline.
- **Philosophical**: Engineering intelligence belongs in system optimization, not in log archaeology.
**Success**: Every production deployment is automatically linked to its source code with zero manual entry.
**One Liner**: Every day, engineering managers lose hours to manual release tracking. Peakommit maps raw git commits to deployment success rates so teams ship faster with total visibility.
**Positioning**:
- **So That**: link every git commit directly to production success
- **Unlike**: manual release spreadsheets
- **For Whom**: engineering managers at software companies
- **Category**: Deployment reliability platform
**Call To Action**:
- **Direct**: Track a deployment
- **Transitional**: View sample DORA dashboard
**Failure Stakes**:
- Undetected production rollbacks
- Hours wasted in manual release spreadsheets
- Inaccurate DORA metrics reporting
**Transformation**:
- **To**: free to optimize engineering velocity, no longer stuck doing the drudgery
- **From**: a lead digging through GitHub logs and Jira tasks
**Controlling Idea**: Release success should be measured by code results, not manual documentation.
