How it works

What the first two weeks look like

Day 1

Install in Slack. Five minutes.

Add Vera to Slack, connect your dev tools. Your team never signs up for anything. Standups start flowing immediately.

See how setup works
Week 1

Vera starts catching things.

Missed standups, stalled PRs, quiet engineers — surfaced automatically. Vera DMs your team before you have to chase anyone.

See what Vera catches
Week 2

You realize what you were missing.

The blocked PR nobody mentioned. The engineer who went quiet. The action item from 3 weeks ago. Vera was tracking it all while you were building.

The layer your stack is missing

Other tools measure things and hand you a dashboard. Vera does what happens next.

Performance Management

Lattice, 15Five, Leapsome

  • Performance reviews
  • 1:1 tracking
  • Goal setting

You do the prep. You do the follow-up. You do the writing.

Dev Productivity

Jellyfish, GetDX, Swarmia

  • DORA metrics
  • Cycle time & throughput
  • PR & commit analytics

Measures output. Misses the person behind it.

DIY with AI

Claude, ChatGPT, custom scripts

  • Slack summaries on demand
  • Ad-hoc 1:1 prep when you remember
  • Works great... when you remember to ask

Your AI can answer a question. It can't close the loop.

Collects

Standups, check-ins, goals — automatically from the tools you already use

Detects

Blockers, stalled work, missed standups, things going quiet

💬

Follows up

Nudges via Slack DM, updates goals, preps your 1:1s

Other tools give you data. Vera does the work.

One tool instead of three.

Vera replaces your standup bot, your 1:1 prep doc, and your follow-up spreadsheet. Fewer seats, fewer integrations, fewer things nobody opens after week two.
