Pensero Announces AI Observability Platform to Enhance Engineering Performance Visibility

Share this news:

-- Pensero transforms engineering data from tools like GitHub, Jira, and Slack into real-time insights. Its AI platform helps tech leaders boost productivity, identify top performers, and align engineering outcomes with business goals across high-growth organizations.


Pensero, an AI-powered observability platform for engineering performance, is redefining how technology leaders understand, manage, and optimize their software teams.

Software engineering teams are often a company’s largest investment, yet they’re rarely held accountable for results in the same way sales or operations teams are. The lack of visibility leaves executives, managers, and employees guessing about productivity, ROI, and alignment, creating tension across departments and uncertainty in the boardroom.

Founded by Dave Garcia and Bernardo Hernando, who experienced this problem firsthand, Pensero brings scientific rigor and AI-driven clarity to what has long been a black box.

"Pensero is our way of turning the lights on — for every leader trying to see their team clearly again" - Ivan Peralta, former CRO and tech executive.

Pensero automatically pulls data from tools like GitHub, Jira, Slack, and Notion, turning the “work exhaust” of daily development into clear, actionable insights. Its AI models reconstruct how work flows through teams, showing leaders what’s being built and who’s driving impact in almost near real time.

“Pensero gave me a clear, data-driven way to identify my best engineers and turn their practices into inspiration for the rest of the team,” said Jean François Legourd, founder of Elfie.co.

The platform replaces traditional performance reviews and static status meetings with continuous, data-backed feedback. Managers can coach with precision, individual contributors can self-manage and track their growth, and executives can align investment decisions with measurable outcomes.

Early adopters have seen dramatic results recovering up to 30% of lost engineering productivity, improving retention among top performers, and spotting performance risks before they become systemic.

Who Pensero Empowers

  • Developers: Receive unbiased, private feedback that helps them grow — positioning Pensero as a supportive ally rather than a monitoring tool.
  • CTOs & Engineering Leaders: Gain a live “work graph” of code, reviews, and tickets to track focus, risk, and alignment in real time.
  • CEOs: Finally understand how engineering output connects to business goals, benchmark against peers, and make strategic calls without drowning in technical jargon.
