Golden standard for agent readiness: treat agents as new hires
We build harnesses for engineering orgs, and this is the metric we've seen is reliable at predicting increases in speed and quality developing with agents, proven through 8 months of experimentation including +2000 engineers across +100 companies. Measure the onboarding of an agent as if it were a new hire, looking at time from access to a deployed first feature, with no help.
The playbook behind teams that 2x'd productivity in Q1
Hundreds of teams have connected their code and project data to Mesmer, and the ones that moved 2x+ faster in Q1 share a playbook. Humans stopped writing code directly, agents get triggered by alerts rather than by people, review moved off the human critical path in four stages, codebases were reshaped for retrieval, and pods shrank to two or three engineers per bet.
