Measuring the real impact of AI on your SDLC

AI is transforming the software development lifecycle (SDLC) by streamlining processes such as code drafting, test generation, and technical query responses, yet its true impact is often obscured by the perception of increased speed rather than measurable improvements. While many developers and engineering leaders report feeling more productive due to AI, with significant reliance on AI tools, there is a growing need to quantify this impact accurately. Port offers solutions to measure AI's real contribution to productivity and cost within the SDLC, enabling organizations to optimize AI usage, balance speed with quality, and ensure responsible scaling. By providing clear visibility into AI adoption, Port helps engineering leaders track usage patterns, evaluate return on investment, and formulate strategic directives on when and how AI should be utilized, ultimately ensuring AI's integration into the SDLC is both effective and sustainable.
