For platform, DevOps & SRE
CI/CD for platform engineering: one pane of glass
Every pipeline across every provider in one feed. Cross-provider DORA. Cost translated to dollars regardless of provider pricing model. Audit findings ranked across the estate.

Feed · DORA · Cost
Three views every platform team uses
Three capabilities the same connect gives you across the estate. Identical shape on every provider; cost translated to dollars so comparisons across providers don't need maths.
Every provider, one feed
Six providers. One run list. Zero agents installed.
GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Bitbucket Pipelines, CircleCI, Azure DevOps, and Jenkins all in one live feed. Each row tagged with its provider; drill straight back to the source's native page when you need the raw logs.
- OAuth (most providers) or access token (Jenkins, GitLab, Azure DevOps)
- SaaS and self-managed GitLab + Jenkins both supported, identical view
- Rate-limit-aware scheduler stays under each provider's ceiling using conditional requests
Outcome: one tab replaces six, with provider-native links preserved on every row.
What's needed: A token per provider. Nothing in your CI configs changes.

DORA across the estate
Five DORA metrics, aggregated and per-provider.
All five DORA metrics across every connected provider. View the aggregate, view per-provider, view per-repo. Mid-migration estates see Jenkins lead time alongside GitHub Actions lead time without rebuilding the report.
- Per-provider breakdown for the migration-status conversation
- Aggregate view for leadership reporting across the whole estate
- Elite / High / Medium / Low ratings from the 2024 DORA Report
Outcome: one DORA story for the whole engineering org, not six.
What's needed: Access tokens. Deployments auto-detect on main/master; named rules in five minutes for non-standard cases.
DORA by provider · 30 days
Cost in dollars, regardless of provider
Translate credits, minutes, slots, and agent-hours to one currency.
Each provider prices CI differently. GitHub per-minute by runner, CircleCI credits with resource-class multipliers, Bitbucket per-user minutes, Azure DevOps parallel slots, Jenkins your own infra rate. Cost tracking normalises everything to dollars at your plan's rate, plus developer wait time per pipeline.
- Compute + developer wait time per pipeline, repo, and provider
- Waste categories: failed runs, cancelled, duplicate, flaky reruns
- Cost-optimization opportunities ranked by potential annualised saving
Outcome: defensible CI/CD spend numbers, with a fix list.
What's needed: OAuth or access token. Jenkins cost rate configurable under Settings (your AWS/GCP/on-prem rate).

Same connect, more depth
How we work with platform teams
Three more capabilities the same connect unlocks. Each pays off particularly well across multi-provider estates where finding the patterns is the real work.
Audit
Audit rules check every repo on every provider for CI/CD hygiene gaps
Missing lint, no unit tests, absent SAST, secrets-in-config, branching-strategy detection, and more. Findings ranked by severity across the estate.
Cost
Cost-optimization opportunities ranked by potential saving
Right-sizing recommendations, redundant-step detection, and waste categorisation. Each opportunity shows the change and the dollar saving.
Strategy
Branching strategy auto-detected per repo
Trunk-based, GitFlow, and GitHub-flow inferred from real branch and merge patterns. DORA gets a per-strategy lens so trunk-based repos aren't penalised for not having long-lived release branches.
All from one connect
Plus the rest of the toolkit
Multi-provider monitoring is the lead. Same connect also gives you PR health, stability classification, performance ratings, security insights, Slack, CLI, and an MCP server.
Cost tracking →
Compute and wait time per provider, dollar-normalised. Team tier.
PR health →
Per-repo CI failure rates, reviewer wait time, and PR-to-deploy latency. Team tier.
Stability classification →
Every pipeline auto-classified healthy, flaky, or broken. Trend detection on each.
Performance ratings →
Per-pipeline performance scoring across the estate. Spot the slow outliers.
Security insights →
Per-repo security-scan detection rolled up across the estate. Business tier.
Slack notifications →
Pipeline failures, regressions, and degradation alerts in your team channel. Team tier.

FAQ
Platform and SRE specifics
- Which CI/CD providers do you support?
- Six: GitHub Actions, GitLab CI (.com and self-managed), Bitbucket Pipelines, CircleCI, Azure DevOps, and Jenkins. Connect each separately; everything aggregates into one view. No agent install on any of them.
- Does it work with self-managed GitLab and Jenkins?
- Yes. Outbound HTTPS from us to your GitLab or Jenkins instance using an access/API token. No inbound network changes. Works on every self-managed GitLab tier (Free, Premium, Ultimate) and any Jenkins controller reachable from our servers.
- How does cost tracking work across providers?
- Each provider has its own pricing model: GitHub Actions per-minute, CircleCI credits, Bitbucket build minutes per user, Azure DevOps parallel slots, Jenkins agent-hours you configure. We translate everything to dollars at your plan's rate so cross-provider cost comparisons don't need mental maths. Developer wait time is included alongside compute spend.
- Can DORA metrics aggregate across providers?
- Yes. DORA includes runs from every connected provider; the metrics view shows per-provider and aggregate. Useful for mixed estates mid-migration: see Jenkins lead time next to GitHub Actions lead time without rebuilding the report in BI.
- What does 'estate-wide audit' actually check?
- Built-in audit rules check for missing lint jobs, missing unit tests, absent SAST/SCA scanning, license-scan presence, branching-strategy detection, and deployment-classification health. Findings rank by severity per repo across every connected provider. Full rule list at /docs/audit.
- Are there rate-limit concerns at scale?
- We use efficient API polling with conditional requests. Each provider has its own rate limit (GitHub 5,000/hr, GitLab 2,000/min, Bitbucket 1,000/hr per-IP, CircleCI 200/min on v2, Jenkins typically generous). The scheduler is rate-limit-aware and backs off when a provider is near quota.
- How does this fit with Datadog if we already have it?
- Different cuts of the problem. Datadog CI Visibility ingests test spans and pipeline traces, billed per-committer plus per-span overages, and excels for teams already on the Datadog stack. CI/CD Watch focuses on pipeline runs as the primary unit, with DORA and cost tracking that includes developer wait time. Flat per-tenant pricing. Pages with deeper comparison at /compare/datadog-ci-visibility.
- Is pricing per-engineer or per-pipeline?
- Neither. CI/CD Watch is flat per tenant: $0 Free, $29 Team, $99 Business per month. Repo and team-member caps differ per tier; consumption inside those caps is unmetered. Predictable spend regardless of estate size within the cap.
- Can we run our own connector for air-gapped CI?
- On Enterprise, yes. Default deployment is SaaS with outbound HTTPS only from your CI to us. Air-gapped or strict-egress estates can run our connector inside their network on Enterprise. Get in touch if that's your setup.
