Everyone wants to move faster with AI. But are you ready for it? In this Feature Friday, Jeff from Cortex shares how working with AI tools like Claude helped him write better code — and why true AI maturity starts with solid engineering hygiene. You’ll learn: “With great power comes great responsibility… and better tests.".

In this video, discover how Cortex’s DORA Metrics Dashboard helps teams measure, analyze, and improve software delivery performance using the industry-standard DORA framework — deployment frequency, cycle time, change failure rate, and mean time to recovery (MTTR).

In this video, discover how Cortex transforms incident management by automating key processes, reducing response times, and providing real-time visibility into your engineering ecosystem. With seamless integrations and AI-powered insights, Cortex helps teams go from reactive to proactive, improving reliability and accelerating recovery.

In this video, discover how Cortex automates production readiness so your services are always secure, reliable, and compliant—without the manual overhead. Instead of relying on slow, static reviews, Cortex turns production readiness into a continuous, automated process powered by real-time data and smart scorecards.

Welcome to the future of developer onboarding with Cortex. In this demo, you’ll see how Cortex helps new engineers ramp up faster by giving them instant access to everything they need—context, ownership, best practices, and workflows—all in one place. What you’ll learn in this video: With Cortex, onboarding becomes a structured, data-driven, and empowering experience. Developers can explore your ecosystem confidently, follow golden paths, and start delivering value immediately—reducing ramp-up time from months to days.

How do you balance speed and quality when your customers are counting on you? What does it actually take to build a culture of reliability? And how should engineering leaders think about AI when it's changing everything about how we ship software? On Braintrust, Ganesh Datta, CTO and Co-founder of Cortex, sits down with CTOs, VPs of Engineering, and technical leaders who've been in the trenches—the ones who've made the hard calls, shipped through the chaos, and built teams that actually work.

Meet Cortex’s AI Chief of Staff, your new strategic partner for engineering leadership. This isn’t just another dashboard. It’s an intelligent advisor that connects your engineering data, scorecards, and DORA metrics to give you real-time, actionable insights. What you'll learn in this video: Cortex’s AI Chief of Staff brings clarity and confidence to decision-making, helping leaders transform meetings into strategic, data-driven conversations that drive continuous improvement.

What if you could analyze your engineering metrics — just by asking a question? Now you can. Introducing Engineering Intelligence for MCP, a new Cortex feature that lets you query your engineering data through AI systems like Claude or Cursor. No dashboards. No BI setup. Just ask: “What’s driving our cycle time?” “Show me Q3 deployment trends.” “Where are our bottlenecks?” Cortex connects your real engineering data to your favorite AI client, so you can get instant, conversational insights on delivery, quality, and team performance — all without leaving your IDE.

Cortex now brings engineering intelligence directly into our MCP, giving teams a unified context for understanding their organization’s engineering performance. In this video, see how MCP transforms raw data into actionable insights that help teams improve velocity, reliability, and overall impact.
