What is iftrue?
iftrue is the world's first Slack-native, AI-powered assistant specifically built for engineering managers and leaders. It aims to optimize developer experience and boost productivity by providing powerful analytics and insights into team performance directly within Slack. It eliminates the need for "tab hopping" by consolidating information from various development tools (like Jira, Gitlab, Github, Bitbucket, Azure) and delivering instant, context-aware answers and guidance. The platform helps engineering organizations gain clarity on demand, make smarter decisions, catch risks early, and improve daily stand-ups, all while grounding its analysis in real team data and industry best practices, including DORA metrics.
How to use iftrue
Users can get started with iftrue by trying it for free, which suggests a freemium or trial-based model. The primary interaction occurs within Slack, where engineering managers can "just ask" questions to get instant answers, clarity, guidance, and momentum without leaving their chat environment. iftrue integrates seamlessly with existing developer tools like Slack, Jira, Gitlab, Github, Bitbucket, and Azure DevOps, pulling data from these sources to provide real-time updates, smart alerts, and tailored advice. It also offers a dashboard for deeper exploration of DORA metrics and team health standards.
