In this post we will simply show you a video of the new metrics feature in Stride. Teams can use these metrics to understand how they are performing in order to find ways to improve. There are four metrics that are available:

• Throughput
• Cycle Time
• Lead Time
• Wait Time (our special version)

We also support export to PDF and Excel.

This post will explore the question “How much money should one spend on AI tools?”. We will be looking at this question from multiple perspectives, the developer who wants to learn AI at home, the developer who works solo and wants the tools in order to boost their throughput and quality, and also from a corporate perspective. I’ll give pricing that is available on the websites but larger discounts are often available for annual subscriptions or educational institutions. All prices are in Canadian Dollars.

In this post I will be using Stride and Claude Code to add a Resources section to the Stride UI. Through a series of videos you will see me go through the entire lifecycle of adding this feature to Stride.

Brainstorming with Claude

I start with a concept. I want to add a new section to Stride where users can go to find answers to questions about Stride. I hope to include a lot of images and videos. The video below shows the output of a Brainstorming session I had with Claude. The session lasted about 5 minutes. I would expect a Product Owner and Developer to pair on this activity in a team setting.

In my pursuit of trying to get the most out of my AI Agents I have spent a lot of time exploring how one can deliver requirements in such a way that they can be understood by Humans and provide the details that will make the Agent implementation successful. Knowing that there is typically a pause between when the requirements is established / captured and when the Agent starts working on it, I wanted to make sure that much of the context and details the Agent had during the planning session was captured in a way that it can be use later during implementation.
