Vera does the management work between your meetings — standups, follow-ups, 1:1 prep, reviews — so your team can scale without adding overhead.
Verais your AI assistant for engineering management. Vera collects standups, communicates with engineers directly, preps your 1:1s with real context, follows up on blockers before you know there's a problem, and drafts performance reviews from months of accumulated data.
The result: each manager can effectively lead a larger team. Not by working harder, but by having an AI that handles the work between meetings — the follow-ups, the pattern detection, the prep, the documentation.
Engineering teams shouldn't need to choose between adding another $200K manager or letting things slip through the cracks. Vera is the third option.
We've spent our careers in engineering leadership. We know the reality: managers are drowning in process work while their teams need them to be technical leaders, decision-makers, and coaches.
The data was always there, scattered across Slack, Jira, GitHub, and a dozen other tools. But the context — the thing that tells you why someone is struggling, not just that their velocity dropped — was always missing.
We built Vera because we wanted the assistant we never had: one that connects the dots between standups, goals, check-ins, and team signals — and gives managers the full picture without adding to their workload.

Technology leader with deep technical expertise and business acumen. Builds the platform that turns team signals into actionable insights for engineering leaders.
LinkedInManagers with 6-15+ direct reports who need to stay on top of their team without living in meetings. Vera handles the follow-ups, prep, and pattern detection.
Leaders who need to scale their engineering org without proportionally scaling management headcount. Vera lets each manager handle more — effectively.
Growing from 15 to 50+ engineers? That's the point where managers lose context and things start slipping. Vera ensures nothing falls through the cracks.
Teams across time zones who rely on async communication. Vera works in Slack, follows up automatically, and gives managers visibility without synchronous standups.
Vera pulls signals from Slack standups, tools like Jira and GitHub, goals, and check-ins — and synthesizes them into context you can actually act on.
Vera follows up on blockers, preps your 1:1s, detects burnout signals, and updates goals — automatically, without you having to remember.
Whether you manage 6 or 20, Vera ensures every person gets attention. Your team grows, your overhead doesn't.
Vera is your AI assistant for engineering management. Vera collects standups, communicates with engineers directly, preps 1:1s, detects problems early, and drafts performance reviews — so each manager can lead more engineers without adding overhead.
Engineering managers, VPs, and CTOs who want to scale their teams without proportionally scaling management headcount.
Standup bots collect updates. Vera acts on them — follows up on blockers, communicates with engineers directly, preps your 1:1s with real context, detects burnout signals, and drafts reviews from months of data. Not just standup collection.
Yes. Standups are free for your whole team with no user cap. The full platform — including AI 1:1 prep, burnout detection, and performance reviews — starts at $15/seat/month.
Vera lives in Slack and connects to tools like Jira, GitHub, and Linear to pull engineering signals. The Integration Pack is available as an add-on.
Private standups are visible only to the individual and their manager. All data is encrypted. Teams control what data is shared and with whom.
