Cycle Time

Turn faster coding into faster delivery

AI made writing code faster, but review capacity didn't grow to match it, so work piles up before it ships. LinearB breaks cycle time down by stage, then routes and reviews pull requests automatically so the time AI saves actually reaches production.

What your software factory is doing to your engineers

AI shifted engineers from writing code to reviewing it. Learn to read the strain signals in your own engineering data - before they show up as attrition.

Cycle time breakdown

See exactly where time is being lost

LinearB breaks cycle time into its components - coding time, pickup time, review time, and merge time. Now you can see precisely where work slows down. When AI speeds up coding, you'll see immediately if review is the new constraint.

gitStream PR Routing

Get code to the right reviewer instantly

LinearB's gitStream automation routes PRs to the right reviewer the moment they open, based on code ownership, expertise, or workload. No more waiting, no more manual assignment, no more engineers blocked on a single approver.

AI Code Review

Catch the risks AI introduces before they reach production

AI generates code faster than most teams can safely review it. LinearB's AI Code Review automatically scans every pull request for security vulnerabilities, bugs, performance issues, and spec mismatches before merge. You get the speed AI promises without the quality debt.

gitStream Automation

Automate the work that creates bottlenecks

Set policy-based rules that handle PR labeling, test enforcement, reviewer rotation, and merge requirements automatically. LinearB runs the workflow so your engineers can focus on the work that actually requires human judgment.

If the pickup time is two days, the person has already forgotten what they worked on two days ago. Our target is eight hours, so everyone reviews a PR within business hours, and you merge while the PR is still fresh.
