For Tech Leads
Ship faster with less waste
See the real cost of CI — compute and developer time. Identify the PRs blocked longest by failing pipelines, the repos with the most wasted runs, and the tests slowing everyone down.
Sound familiar?
Tech leads feel CI pain from both sides — slow pipelines block your team, and wasted runs burn your budget.
The problem
Your team spends more time waiting for CI than writing code
How CI/CD Watch helps
CI/CD Watch tracks developer wait time alongside compute costs. See exactly how many engineer-hours are lost to slow or failing pipelines each week.
The problem
PRs sit open for days because CI keeps failing
How CI/CD Watch helps
The PR health dashboard shows CI success rates per repository and surfaces the PRs blocked longest by pipeline failures. Fix the repos that slow down merging the most.
The problem
You suspect CI waste but can't quantify it
How CI/CD Watch helps
Waste is automatically categorised: failed runs, cancelled runs, duplicate runs (same commit within 5 minutes), and flaky reruns. Each category shows estimated cost impact.
The problem
Nobody knows which tests are worth fixing first
How CI/CD Watch helps
Flaky and slow test rankings show you the tests with the highest failure rates and longest durations. Focus your team's time on the tests that cause the most pain.
Four types of CI waste, automatically detected
CI/CD Watch categorises every wasted pipeline run so you can see exactly where your budget is going.
Failed Runs
Pipelines that ran to completion but failed. The compute was consumed with no useful outcome.
Cancelled Runs
Pipelines cancelled before completing — often from force-pushes or superseded commits.
Duplicate Runs
Multiple pipeline runs triggered on the same commit within 5 minutes. One would have been enough.
Flaky Reruns
A failure followed by a success on the same commit. The first run was wasted because the pipeline is unreliable.
The tools to cut waste and ship faster
Costs, PR health, test reliability, and optimisation opportunities — everything you need to make your team's CI work for them instead of against them.
Cost Breakdown
See the true cost of CI — compute charges and developer wait time per pipeline. Configure custom rates to match your actual spend.
Waste Detection
Failed runs, cancelled runs, duplicate triggers, and flaky reruns — automatically categorised with estimated cost impact for each type.
PR Health & Wait Time
Track CI success rates across PRs. Surface the pull requests and repositories where developers are waiting longest for CI to pass.
Cost Opportunities
Pipelines ranked by potential savings. Each opportunity shows the estimated saving and what action to take — fix flaky tests, reduce duration, or eliminate duplicates.
Flaky & Slow Test Rankings
See every test ranked by failure rate, flip rate, and duration. Know exactly which tests are causing the most re-runs and the longest waits.
Slack Notifications
Get alerted in Slack when a costly pipeline fails again or an alert threshold is breached. Route failures to the right channel so the team can act fast.
Per-Repo Drill-Downs
Compare costs, waste, and PR health across repositories. Identify the repos that consume the most CI budget and developer time.

Cost breakdowns, waste detection, and PR health — all in one place.
Finding $2,000/month in CI waste
You open the costs page and sort by total spend. Your team's main monorepo is the top spender at $3,200/month. You expand it and see that $800 is waste — $500 from flaky reruns, $200 from duplicate triggers, $100 from cancelled runs.
The flaky tests page shows three tests responsible for most of the reruns. Two are timing-dependent integration tests, one is a race condition in a UI test. You create tickets for each and share the cost data in the team's Slack channel so everyone understands the impact.
The cost opportunities page also flags a slow pipeline that could save $400/month by parallelising its test suite. Between the flaky test fixes and the parallelisation, you're looking at $1,200/month in savings — and faster PR feedback for the whole team.
