Two different approaches to engineering leadership. One measures what teams do. The other coaches teams to do it better. Understand the difference, and which one is right for you.
Both platforms read your existing tools, Jira, Azure DevOps, GitHub, Slack. But they answer different questions.
A reporting and metrics platform. Shows you DORA metrics, sprint velocity, deployment frequency, lead time, and change failure rate. Answers the question: "What did we deliver, and how fast?"
An intelligence and coaching platform. Turns metrics into coaching actions, surfaces team health signals, and forecasts delivery risk. Answers the question: "Why are we delivering at this pace, and what will make us faster?"
One team, one sprint, the same signal travelling left to right.
Observed from standups, tickets, commits and deploys. Nobody typed a status.
your dashboards stop hereRead two ways: from this team's own behaviour, and from what is already heading its way, so the manager can position before it lands.
Park the unplanned work and re-anchor the sprint goal. Goal confidence rises from 40–55% to 65–75%.
You pick the outcome. Performalise shows the move, the trade-off, and who needs to know. Never a score, never a pre-selected answer.
That last column is what "Powered by choice" means: the manager chooses the outcome, the tool shows the move. See the full platform →

Agile Analytics measures engineering metrics across sprints. Performalise turns those metrics into coaching actions, team health signals, and delivery intelligence. Think of it this way: Agile Analytics is a reporting layer that shows what happened; Performalise is an intelligence layer that tells your teams what to do differently. One answers "What did we deliver?" The other answers "Why did we deliver at that pace, and what changes will make us faster?"
Yes. Performalise tracks deployment frequency, lead time for changes, mean time to recovery, and change failure rate. The key difference: we contextualise those metrics with team health, psychological safety, product discovery maturity, and continuous improvement signals. Plus, your coach surfaces anomalies and coaches teams on how to improve. Agile Analytics focuses exclusively on the metrics themselves.
Performalise is purpose-built for agile coaches. Your coach surfaces team health anomalies, prepares Agile Event briefs with sprint-level context, and enables coaches to scale from supporting six teams to twelve or more, without losing coaching quality. Agile Analytics is designed for engineering managers and delivery leads who need deep technical metrics and deployment data.
Yes. Many organisations use Agile Analytics for deep deployment and CI/CD metrics, and Performalise for team coaching, delivery intelligence, and portfolio visibility. They solve different problems for different stakeholders: engineering teams use one, leadership teams use the other. The combination gives you complete coverage.
Both platforms use per-team or per-user pricing models. Performalise pricing starts at $400/month (Perform tier) and $600/month (Scale tier) for annual commitment. Agile Analytics uses a per-team model. We recommend requesting a demo to compare total cost of ownership for your specific team structure and usage.
