🔍 Your Team Adopted AI Tools — Now What? Every engineering org is deploying AI coding assistants, agentic workflows, and foundation models. But here's the uncomfortable truth: most have zero visibility into whether it's actually working.
How much are you spending per commit on AI tokens?
Are your developers faster — or just busier?
Which of your 30+ AI tools are delivering ROI and which are waste?
Join us for a 90-minute hands-on workshop where we'll show you a battle-tested framework for measuring AI's real impact on engineering velocity, code quality, and cost — built entirely on AWS-native services with zero per-seat licensing.
What You'll Learn 📊 Measure Real Impact — Move beyond vanity metrics. Track adoption, productivity, and outcomes across your entire engineering org with a proven KPI framework
🔥 AI Coding Tool Economics — Get full visibility into 40+ AI coding tools (Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Gemini, Grok & more). See token usage, model attribution, cost-per-commit, and waste detection in one place
🏗️ AWS-Native Architecture — Deploy dashboards on CloudWatch, QuickSight, Bedrock, and DynamoDB. No vendor lock-in, no per-seat fees — just your data, your infrastructure
🛡️ Security & Governance — Address the 8 CISO concerns keeping your security team up at night. Shadow AI detection, compliance guardrails, and policy enforcement built in
📈 Maturity Assessment — Understand where your org sits on the AI transformation curve and get a concrete roadmap to level up
Live Demo: What You'll See in Action ✅ Executive Readout Dashboard — CTO-level view of AI impact across teams ✅ Token Economics Console — CFO-friendly cost attribution ($/commit, tokens/line) ✅ Team Velocity Tracker — Engineering manager view of before vs. after ✅ CISO Compliance Dashboard — Governance, data flow, and policy status ✅ AI-DORA Analysis — AI-native twist on DORA metrics for modern teams
Who Should Attend CTOs & VPs of Engineering — "Is our AI investment paying off?"
Engineering Managers — "How do I measure my team's AI-assisted productivity?"
CISOs & Security Leaders — "What AI tools are in use and are they compliant?"
CFOs & Finance Partners — "What are we actually spending on AI tokens?"
Ideal for orgs with 20–200+ engineers that have adopted AI tools but lack a measurement strategy.
What You'll Walk Away With ✅ A clear framework for measuring AI transformation (Adoption → Productivity → Outcomes) ✅ Access to an open-source assessment tool you can run on your own codebase ✅ Architectural blueprints for deploying observability dashboards on AWS ✅ A maturity score for your organization with a personalized improvement roadmap ✅ Direct access to AWS Solutions Architects who built this for production
