More time for the fun stuff
Coding that is! Smeedee helps you avoid scouring through the various information tools to get the information you want, and instead delivers what is important straight to your work environment.
Visualize it all
Smeedee helps you visualize a variety of information about your software projects, including Source Control, Continuous Integration, Project Management tools and gives you a "real world" view of the time at your disposal.
Integrates easily
Smeedee easily integrates into your existing systems, supporting widely used software such as TFS, Team City, Subversion and many others.
And if Smeedee doesn't support the systems you use today, writing new integration code for Smeedee is a breeze!
Easily extendable
Creating new widgets and integration code for Smeedee is very easy.

Encourage Quality
Smeedee informs your team when something happens allowing your team to react quickly to broken builds and stay up to date on what happens in the code base with commit messages being immediately pushed to the work environment.

Project Description
Smeedee is a monitor that harvests key information from running software projects. Smeedee finds useful information in the Version Control System (source control), Continuous Integration system (build servers), source code itself and in the project management tool you are using. The key information is interpreted and then visualized on a digital Dashboard.
So instead of working in an information centric environment, were you have to find and interpret the data yourself. Smeedee will find and interpret the data for you, and then push key information to you and the rest of the team.
With Smeedee, you’ll experience a better flow of information in your team. The teamwork will become more transparent and you’ll have a superior tool for maximizing productivity and quality in software projects.
Features:
Smeedee can inform you and your team about:
- The latest changes in the source code
- When the build is broken
- How many actual working days there is left in the current iteration
- The overall activity in the project
- The performance of your team (Sprint burndown)
- What you have agreed upon in the last Sprint retrospective
The best part is that Smeedee will give your team this information without them having to ask for it. When Smeedee is installed in the office landscape where your team works, it radiates out information to your team while they are working or when they walk by. It shows information that your team care about.
