I apologise if this sounds mean spirited, I find posts like these making grand claims without taking the time to present facts that back the magnitude of these claims simply add noise to the discussion.

You could've stopped with just the first sentence and I've would learned just as much as I did reading that comment to the end.

I've been tracking Github commits per week for my team. Here's how it's looking:

Our own Github commits volume seem to follow quite closely with token usage on Open Router:

Do you also have a graph for more useful metrics, like number of requested features delivered? Commits, lines of code, headscratch count... there are a lot of metrics you can use, but LLMs are notorious for increasing code verbosity - which adds noise to the already imprecise metric you linked.

  Yes. I wrote about it in my original post.
  In my own company, the last 2 months, I feel like we've made more feature announcements to our internal staff than they can handle. AI has genuinely made us that much faster. In the past, making one of these announcements every month and the company celebrated. Now we're making making multiple each week.
  But I suspect you want our project management pipeline? Maybe I can just ask our coding agent to search and summarize all the features and fixes for you and then build a dashboard for you. Better yet, my email is in my profile. Email me, we'll get on a call, and I'll show you. /s
  Let me ask you. What are you doing such that your velocity hasn't been greatly accelerated in the last 6 months? Can you prove that it hasn't been accelerated with facts?
