Trusted by the teams transforming software delivery

Your teams are shipping more code with AI. Delivery needs to change.

AI coding tools generate code faster than your review process can handle. Every PR an AI assistant writes needs a human to review, approve, and merge it  at the same pace they always have. The bottleneck has shifted downstream. Jellyfish tracks how fast AI is producing code. LinearB automates the bottleneck it creates. gitStream routes PRs, enforces review policies, and triggers test enforcement automatically. Expedia reinvests 2,000 developer hours monthly through 200,000+ PR automations. Yum! Brands automates 321 developer hours per month.

Jellyfish shows you the problem. You still have to fix it manually.

Every Jellyfish insight ends with a dashboard. There is no workflow automation, no policy-as-code engine, no gitStream equivalent. When your cycle time spikes, Jellyfish generates a report. LinearB routes the PR, enforces the review policy, and closes the bottleneck automatically. 
This is not a product roadmap gap. Jellyfish has existed for years without building an automation engine. It is a deliberate product choice: they are simply a reporting tool.

Jellyfish measures what AI review agents found. LinearB reviews the code they wrote.

Jellyfish tracks third-party code review agents such as CodeRabbit, GitHub Copilot-Reviewer, Graphite. It reports on what they flagged. It cannot catch what they missed, and it has no mechanism to enforce quality standards independently of the AI that wrote the code. LinearB's AI code review runs as a separate layer. It catches security risks, bugs, performance issues, and spec mismatches before merge regardless of what AI tool generated the code.

A platform your engineering managers ignore is half a platform.

Jellyfish is built for your CFO. Adoption drops sharply at the engineering manager and developer level. Jellyfish's own customers report in independent evaluations. LinearB delivers cycle time visibility, bottleneck detection, and workload balancing at the team level. Developers get gitStream automations that remove friction from their daily work. Platform and DevEx leads get survey data and MCP-driven insights.

Guillermo Manzo
Director DevEx
Every time we run into a new PR problem, we ask: can LinearB automations solve this too? And so far, it's done exactly what we've needed.
Bart Dziekan
Head of Cloud Solutions
We started comparing the AI-generated retros to our actual sprint progress, and it made us look deeper.

Setting the record straight

Jellyfish's comparison page has a number of false claims regarding LinearB capabilities. We wanted to set the record straight and provide you the real picture.

Developer Surveys

LinearB has a dedicated Developer Surveys product. Survey developers to capture qualitative feedback, compare perceived productivity to delivery data, and justify DevEx investments to executive leadership.

Developer Experience

LinearB has a full Developer Experience platform pillar — described as "the control plane for developer experience teams." Includes DevEx dashboard, survey integration, AI adoption tracking, and developer health metrics.

Security

LinearB never accesses, stores, or scans source code. The platform reads Git metadata only. LinearB's security page navigation reads verbatim: "Enterprise-grade compliance and zero code access." The security FAQ answers this three separate times.

MCP Server

LinearB's MCP Server connects to Claude, ChatGPT, and other AI clients. Ask natural language questions about your delivery data, get recommendations, and build custom reports without touching a dashboard.

Compliance

LinearB displays both SOC 1 Type II and SOC 2 Type II compliance badges on its security page, side by side, with the statement: "LinearB is proud to be externally verified as compliant to the following standards."
