Agents operating without lifecycle context don't just fail. They create cleanup work.
GitLab Orbit, now in public beta, maps code, work items, pipelines, deployments, and production signals into a context graph for the entire software lifecycle that agents and engineers query from the same source of truth. Based on internal testing, agents using GitLab Orbit responded up to 11x faster response, used up to 4.5x fewer tokens, and produced up to 45x fewer hallucinations.

GitLab Transcend is June 10-11. Two days on agentic engineering for the enterprise.

We're seeing that current SDLC bottlenecks are actually everything but the code. Pipelines that need a specialist to configure, delivery data nobody can read in real time. That's what intelligent orchestration is really about.

Software Factory and GitLab are more complementary than competitive. You own the intent and orchestration layer. GitLab is where the code lands, pipelines run, and security gates enforce. Orgs need both sides of that equation. Maybe we'll see an integration down the line 👀

Control plane! Control plane! Control plane!
You will hear this term of art a lot going forward. Why?
Because in this next phase of AI, companies will want something to sit above the models. They will want control over their AI spend. They will want the flexibility to pick certain models over others, to have flexibility on spending their budgets and more tightly tying that to measurable outcomes.
But most importantly, leaders will want to have INTENT around their AI spend.
Vibe coding is dead. Now comes the serious ROI driven analysis that is associated with every other serious business initiative.
This is why we built Software Factory.

Microsoft is quietly telling Azure DevOps customers to migrate to GitHub. Interesting timing given what just happened to Copilot pricing.

Reliability, auditability, and cost predictability are the criteria. GitHub loses on all of these.

If you are going to migrate your dev infrastructure anyway, it is worth asking who it’s worth doing business with. One option is a single platform with flexible hosting options that has been built for regulated environments since day one. The uptime data is public too. 🦊

Selling this into some of the most rigorous engineering orgs in financial services. The price opens doors. The results in trials and on-demand seals the deal. Given the latest news in token pricing from our competitors, it’s only up from here 🚀

I expected Duo Agent Platform to beat Cursor, Claude, Copilot and Devin on price with our $0.25/review fixed price, I did not expect us to win all of the above on precision and recall, but check out this site to learn more, including how we rank against all the code review solutions in market. duo-review-bench-6f7260.gitl…
This is the power of repo-side agents, and it’s just the beginning of more powerful, higher quality and lower cost agentic engineering. This is our structural advantage in action.

The millennial lifestyle subsidy era for GitHub Copilot is over, the dominos will fall elsewhere too.

The engineering orgs doing the most sophisticated software development in financial services do not sign blank checks on infrastructure spend. It's slow, predictable procurement cycles and absolutely won't fly.

The deals that closed in my patch with GitLab Duo Agent Platform got over the finish line with granular cost controls at the individual level, admin billing alerts before overages hit, and onboarding incentives. No surprises on the GitLab side. Microsoft will soon learn its lesson.

Been building out some automation for the parts of AE life that just eat time.
Put together a Glean agent that reads my open opps, pulls in recent emails, Slack threads, and Gong calls for context on each deal, suggests next steps, and writes them back directly to Salesforce. Same context loop also fills in my current opp’s command plans. Used it to update my whole open pipeline this afternoon.
Claude alone ran into a wall on the Salesforce writes due to some permissions guardrails. Glean handles the connector auth cleanly and has the permissions needed to update Salesforce.
Took less than an hour. Works.

Also have a Claude Cowork scheduled task that hits my Gmail inbox every morning and writes my to-do list directly into Apple Reminders. Work laptop, personal iPad, my iPhone, it’s all there even if I step away from my desk.

And another scheduled task that runs at the end of each day, labels and sorts everything in my inbox, and gets me to inbox zero without touching it.
