# About develoom

> develoom is growth intelligence for engineers who do more than code. It reads the evidence engineers already produce and maps it to the career framework their company promotes on.

## Why develoom exists

Performance reviews run on memory. Every six or twelve months, engineers reconstruct what they did from commit history and half-remembered threads, managers reconstruct it from whatever they happened to notice, and both sides negotiate over an incomplete picture. Meanwhile the real evidence is sitting untouched in GitHub, Linear, Jira, Slack, and Google Docs.

Engineering analytics tools already count the code. They do not see the design doc that unblocked a team, the review comment that prevented an outage, or the thread where someone quietly aligned three stakeholders. That work is most of what separates one level from the next, and it is the part that goes unrecorded.

develoom exists to close that gap. It connects to the tools a team already uses, maps everyday artefacts to the behaviours in that company's career framework, and keeps one continuous picture that the engineer and the manager both see.

## What we build

- A read-only integration layer over the tools engineering teams already run on.
- A mapping layer that turns everyday artefacts into evidence against a company's own competency ladder, not a generic one. The reference for that mapping is published at [source context](https://develoom.com/source-context).
- Two views on the same truth: a growth picture for the engineer, and a team picture for the manager.

## Who builds it

develoom is built by the same small group that works directly with every early access team. There is no sales layer in between: the email address on this site reaches the people writing the product.

## Where we are

develoom is in early access and is being rolled out to a small number of engineering teams, typically 15 to 100 engineers, that already run a career framework. There is no self-serve signup and no public pricing yet. Early access teams get free access and a direct line to the roadmap while the product is shaped around real workflows.

## What we will not do

We do not write anything back into your tools, we do not bypass your existing permissions, we do not keep raw commits and messages around longer than the processing needs, and we never train AI models on customer data. The detail is in the [privacy policy](https://develoom.com/privacy).
