- **[Test Analytics]**: A second product launched in 2021 that helps teams analyze and optimize test suites to reduce flakiness and improve CI time.

## Competitive Advantages
- **Hybrid architecture**: Unique design where control plane is managed (cloud) but agents run on customer infrastructure — avoids vendor lock-in and gives teams complete control over security, compliance, and performance.
- **Composable primitives**: Provides flexible, unopinionated building blocks rather than a prescriptive managed runtime, enabling teams to tailor CI/CD to their exact workflow.

- **Interview process**: Focuses on four competencies (Productivity, Team Player, Customer Obsessed, Curiosity) with a Craft Interview that allows candidates to showcase real examples.
