Just launched Quantypace on Product Hunt.
What it is:
Flow metrics + probabilistic forecasting for engineering teams using
Linear + GitHub.
The problem I'm solving:
Engineering managers get asked "when will this ship?" daily and answer
with guesses. Stakeholders lose trust. I've lived this pain for years.
The solution:
Monte Carlo simulation using historical cycle time data. Instead of
"probably 2-3 weeks", answer with "85% confident by March 22" (P85 date).
Tech stack:
- Backend: .NET 8 (REST API, CQRS pattern)
- Frontend: React 19 + TypeScript
- Infrastructure: Fly.io + Supabase
- Integrations: Linear + GitHub OAuth
- Cost: $25/mo (bootstrapped)
What I built:
- DORA metrics (deployment freq, lead time, MTTR, change failure rate)
- Monte Carlo forecasting (P50/P85/P95 confidence intervals)
- Ceremony packs (auto-generated planning/retro materials)
- Improvement hub (track if process changes actually work)
- 10 free tools (no signup - SEO play)
- Code-to-deploy visibility
- Automated insights
Pricing strategy:
- $29/mo per team (not per user)
- Competitors: $25-80 per user = $225/mo for 3-person team
- Beta special: $15/mo first year
Key learnings so far:
- Reddit validation: Posted to r/Linear + r/SideProject = 891 views,
0 signups. Why? No demo CTA. Fixed in 48 hours.
- Competitor appeared: Tempo (usetempo.dev) launched on r/EngineeringManagers
11 days ago, free, DORA focus. Our differentiation: Monte Carlo
forecasting (they confirmed not building it).
- Feature bloat temptation: Had to resist adding every feature Tempo
has. Staying focused on forecasting.
Current status:
What I'm learning:
- Per-team pricing resonates way more than per-user with small teams
- "Ceremony packs" feature getting more interest than expected
- 10 free tools driving organic traffic already (SEO working)
Ask:
If you've struggled with delivery forecasting or stakeholder communication,
would love your feedback. What am I missing? What would make this more useful?
