Summary

Today, I'm talking with Kolton Andrus, CEO and Founder of Gremlin. You may remember previously when we spoke with Matt, the prior CTO of the company. Since that time frame, a lot has changed at the company, going through several arcs and foundational changes that are leading to not only assessing weaknesses in your infrastructure, but walking you through how to fix it (and eventually, fixing it for you).

0:00.0	Guys, I've got something cool to tell you about.
0:02.5	As an engineering leader, a manager, and an engineer myself, I'm geeking out over a new product I'm just discovering that helps me with each of these points of view.
0:11.0	The great team at SEMA, builders of the SEMA intelligence platform, have been working on what they call the product roadmap radar.
0:19.0	It's this integrated solution that uses generative AI to observe
0:22.2	your code and Jira in order to summarize, synthesize, and make it easier to deliver your roadmap.
0:28.2	It not only helps keep your roadmap on track, but it helps reduce the time engineers spend in

1:10.0	It even detects shadow work when
1:12.3	development is being done but Jura isn't being updated. I'm pretty jazzed about it, and I think
1:17.1	you will be too. Take a second to watch a short but awesome demo video. Go to codestory.com
