The new transaction layer for IT outsourcing

Sell software delivery, not engineering hours

When agents write the code, hours stop measuring value. Pensero scores delivery, so your firm can price and bill it.

The Delivery Point™

One unit of finished work, scored by size and difficulty, the same way for humans, vendors and agents.

  • Nothing is out of scope

    PRs, reviews, tickets, docs and agent sessions all count.

  • Understood, not counted

    Agents read each task. Humans disagree with under 0.5%.

  • Normalized at scale

    The same change earns the same points in any stack.

  • Gaming does not pay

    Scores the task, not the person. Duplicates earn zero.

The work item "Add workspace setup to self-serve onboarding" with its activities and delivery points. Its item delivery is 10.0: magnitude Large • 5.0, complexity Medium • 2.0.

A small fix is 3 points, a cross-system feature 24. Points measure contribution, not price: your firm sets the price per point.

Scored at scale. One point means the same everywhere.

Pensero, Sep 2026.

Bill by the hour, and every agent shrinks your invoice

Agents finish the job in fewer hours, so a firm that bills by the hour earns less as it gets better at AI.

Five things your firm can do with a neutral score

Each is hard to offer today, because a client has little reason to trust a number its vendor produced.

See how it works →

  • Quote per delivery point

    A neutral score both sides trust, so outcome pricing becomes possible.

  • Prove the transformation

    Show week by week how much of the client’s work moved onto agents.

  • Show the work as it happens

    Scope, progress and the mix of humans and agents, while the project runs.

  • Sell the assessment itself

    Measure engineers before and after a Claude Code or Copilot rollout, and price it.

  • Defend your margin

    See AI spend per point by client, team and model, before it reaches the P&L.

Integration is one step. Connect the client’s systems.

Pensero reads the tools the teams already use, in the cloud or on-prem. The teams change nothing.

Questions from partner firms

What is Pensero?

Pensero scores software delivery in one unit, the delivery point, for humans, vendors and agents. Firms use it to quote, evidence and bill their work, and clients use it to compare every vendor on one scale.

What is a delivery point?

One unit of finished work, scored by size and difficulty: points = magnitude × complexity. Every point traces back to the pull request and ticket behind it.

How does Pensero score a task?

Magnitude runs from XXS (0.15) to XL (8), and complexity from 1.0 to 3.0 across code, system design, delivery, communication and ownership. The scale is calibrated on 2M+ pull requests and tickets from 200+ organizations.

Who sets the price per delivery point?

Your firm does. The delivery point measures contribution, not price, so each provider quotes its own price per point and competes on price, quality and reliability.

How does my firm quote and get paid?

You quote in points and a price per point. Pensero scores the work as it ships and shows the client the evidence, and you bill the accepted points.

What does the client see?

One unit across every vendor and its own teams. The client compares your delivery points, quality and rework with any other provider at the same price per point, in the same report.

Does Pensero deliver the work?

No. Your firm delivers the work with its humans and agents. Pensero only measures it, so no vendor grades its own work.

Can a team game the score?

Gaming does not pay: Pensero scores the task, not the person. Boilerplate, reverts and duplicates earn zero.

Does Pensero monitor individual engineers?

No. Pensero scores the task and reports by team, vendor, agent and type of work. The client sees what was delivered and at what quality.

What does Pensero need from the client?

Read access to the systems the teams already use: GitHub, GitLab, Jira, Linear, Copilot, Cursor, Claude Code and Devin, including contractors with repo access. Nobody changes how they work.

Where does Pensero run at the client?

In Pensero Cloud, in an EU-based deployment, in the client’s own cloud account or on-premises. Integration is one step: connect the systems.

Is the marketplace live?

Measurement is live today: scoring, evidence and the benchmark. Proposal evaluation, contracting and settlement on the marketplace are in build.
