The Blind Spot

You invest in docs and DevRel. But is it working?

Developer platforms publish documentation, ship SDKs, and write tutorials. But have no objective way to know if any of it is helping developers succeed.

Meanwhile, developers now ask ChatGPT and Claude how to use your product instead of reading your docs. If those models hallucinate, developers blame your product, not the AI.

DX Pulse gives you the dashboard you’ve been missing.

DX Pulse

Six modules. Two scores. Zero guesswork.

A benchmark that measures your developer experience the way developers actually experience it — including through AI.

01

Docs Quality

Crawls your entire docs site. Grades code sample completeness, readability, structure, and AI-friendliness. Every page, every snippet.

02

Onboarding

Measures time-to-first-success. Evaluates your quickstart for friction: credit card gates, missing steps, unclear prerequisites.

03

Content Gaps

Searches Stack Overflow, Reddit, and GitHub Issues for developer questions your docs should answer but don’t.

04

Ecosystem Health

12-signal assessment: SDK coverage, community activity, pricing clarity, blog freshness, DevRel presence, third-party content.

05

LLM Accuracy

Queries Claude, GPT, and Gemini with relevant questions about your product. Judges every answer against your docs. Reports hallucination rates.

06

AI Readiness

Tests whether Claude, GPT, and Gemini recommend your product by name, know your key features, and position you fairly against competitors.
