Introducing Cimatic: Complete CI/CD Pipeline Analytics for Developer Teams

In today's fast-paced software development landscape, the difference between good and great teams often comes down to CI/CD pipeline performance — how quickly they can iterate, learn, and deliver value through optimized continuous integration workflows.

Welcome to Cimatic! 🚀

Hi, I'm Kamil—a software engineer with a passion for making developers' lives easier.

Throughout my 20-year career working with teams of all sizes, I've consistently found that CI/CD pipelines are often the hidden bottleneck slowing down developers. My journey has taken me through numerous companies, where I've dedicated myself to optimizing CI/CD pipelines and, along the way, building a suite of custom tools for analysis and improvement. Cimatic is the culmination of these years of hands-on experience and a deep understanding of how CI/CD pipelines can become 10× productivity multipliers.

Why CI/CD Pipeline Analytics Matter

I noticed recurring patterns across all the companies I worked for:

• Teams struggle with slow, unreliable CI/CD pipelines that make developers hesitant to ship their work.
• Critical DevOps performance metrics remain scattered, obscuring the true causes of delays and failures.
• Valuable engineering time is wasted on flaky tests, queue bottlenecks, and infrastructure issues in GitHub Actions and other CI/CD tools.

I decided to create a solution that could help engineering teams everywhere. I started analyzing hundreds of open source repositories to identify patterns that either accelerated or hindered development velocity. These insights formed the foundation of Cimatic—a data-driven approach to transforming how teams build, test, and deploy software through comprehensive pipeline monitoring.

What Cimatic's CI/CD Pipeline Analytics Platform Does

The result is a comprehensive pipeline monitoring platform that transforms your CI/CD experience by:

• Pinpointing exact bottlenecks in your CI/CD pipeline, so you know precisely where to focus improvement efforts.
• Delivering data-driven DevOps insights that eliminate guesswork and support confident decision-making.
• Accelerating GitHub Actions workflows and build cycles through targeted, high-impact optimizations.
• Tracking CI/CD pipeline metrics that directly correlate to developer productivity and satisfaction.
• Building reliability into your continuous integration workflow, reducing disruptions and context switching.

These capabilities are designed with a deep understanding of engineering team dynamics, ensuring that Cimatic doesn't just improve your pipelines—it enhances your entire DevOps culture through comprehensive pipeline observability.

I Believe That

1. Velocity wins. Tight feedback loops beat perfect plans.
2. Visibility drives velocity. If you can’t see a problem, you can’t fix it.
3. Good pipelines are products. They deserve the same care, monitoring, and UX as customer-facing features.

In short, good CI/CD pipeline performance is the foundation upon which high-performing engineering cultures are built. It's the difference between a team that ships with confidence and one that's constantly fighting fires in their continuous integration workflows.

Join Me on This Journey

Cimatic is not just about the product. It's a mission to elevate the practice of software engineering through better tools and processes.

Whether you're a startup looking to establish solid foundations or an enterprise seeking to optimize existing systems, Cimatic is for you. It's currently in closed beta, used to track some of the most popular open source repositories, uncover edge cases, and rigorously test the tools on real—and sometimes very complex—projects.

I invite you to follow our progress, and join the conversation about how we can collectively make software development more efficient, more reliable, and more enjoyable.

Let’s accelerate together!
