Know Which Developers
Are About to Leave
DevPulse turns raw GitHub activity into early-warning churn signals — so DevRel teams can re-engage contributors before it's too late.
THE NUMBERS BEHIND DEVELOPER CHURN
Cohort retention chart — identify which contributor classes are drifting fastest
HOW IT WORKS
From raw GitHub data to retention action — in minutes
01 /
Connect your GitHub org
One OAuth install. DevPulse reads contribution events across repos — commits, PRs, issues, reviews — without touching your code.
02 /
Analyze contribution signals
Our health score engine normalizes activity by contributor, flags velocity drops, and calculates churn probability across your whole contributor base.
03 /
Act before it's too late
Get weekly alerts on at-risk contributors with recommended actions — a direct outreach, a recognition moment, or a program tweak.
BUILT FOR DEVREL TEAMS
Everything your team needs to stop contributor churn
Contribution velocity tracking
Track commits, PRs, reviews, and issue activity per contributor. Spot the moment velocity starts declining — weeks before a contributor goes silent.
Churn risk score
churn risk
Proprietary health score ranks every contributor by risk level — red, amber, green. Know who needs attention this week.
