Don’t just take our word for it
Focused team execution
“15 engineers. $50M a year. We didn’t know exactly how our work was different from where we wanted to go. In one view, we can show engineers everything they did… and they learn a lot of insights.
Now we went from 70% to 30% maintenance… it’s where we want it to be. It’s like the lighthouse of our engineering team.”
Ignasi Vegas
Co-founder and CEO
Proof over guessing
"I was being told we were slow to ship, but I didn't have any visibility as to why that was. Pensero is story points after the fact — we go 4x faster.
Engineers love it because they get to brag: they can say they're in the top 5 percent globally, based on an independent third party. Pensero is why you want to work here."
Andrew Eye
CEO and Founder
Enable team growth
“Pensero offers a modern approach to performance management by providing real-time, actionable insights and continuous improvement. Its features are designed to enhance clarity, accountability, and productivity within teams.
As a manager that helped me have honest and actionable feedback with my teams enabling them for growth.“
Natxo Treig
Sr. Engineering Manager
Truly plug 'n play
“Pensero gives me a clear, non-engineer’s view of team productivity. It helps me spot champions who adopt new tools fastest and turn their practices into inspiration for the rest of the team.
Rather than being a policing tool, it provides a data-driven foundation for bragging rights, better conversations, and benchmarking against peers worldwide. And the best part: it was truly plug-and-play — we were live in just one day.”
Jean-François Legourd
Co-founder
Effortless observability
“Pensero gives me daily peace of mind. I know exactly what the team is working on. The built-in reporting & analytics make team observability effortless, and the leaderboards give us the clarity we need for performance reviews and promotions decisions.”
