Getting Started

Upshot is an engineering impact intelligence platform. It connects to your dev tools, pulls in activity data, and uses AI to generate audience-tailored reports — so your whole company understands what engineering is building and why it matters.

Who is Upshot for?

  • Engineering teams — automated standups, DORA metrics, and technical changelogs
  • Engineering leaders — executive summaries with business impact and velocity trends
  • Product & marketing — polished changelogs and editorial blog posts, auto-generated
  • Customer success — customer-facing update emails without scary internal details

Quick setup — 5 minutes to your first report

1

Sign up

Create your account and organization at upshot.wellcode.ai

2

Connect integrations

Link GitHub, Linear, Sentry, Slack — OAuth, no webhooks needed

3

Generate a report

Pick an audience, a time range, and hit Generate. AI does the rest.

1. Create your account

Head to upshot.wellcode.ai and sign up with your work email or GitHub account. You'll be prompted to create an organization — this is the workspace where your team's data lives.

2. Connect your first integration

Navigate to Settings → Integrations and connect at least one source. We recommend starting with GitHub — it's the richest data source and takes 30 seconds via OAuth.

Upshot is entirely pull-based: we read from your tools' APIs on a schedule. No webhooks to configure, no firewall rules to update.

3. Generate your first report

Go to Reports → New Report, select an audience (try "Team" first), pick the last 7 days, and click Generate. Upshot will:

  1. Pull recent activity from your connected tools
  2. Interpret and cluster related work items
  3. Score items by impact and relevance
  4. Generate a polished, audience-appropriate report

Review the draft, make any edits, and publish — or schedule it to run automatically every week.
