LinearB Named a Leader in the 2026 Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for Developer Productivity Insight Platforms

BOSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--LinearB, an engineering productivity platform for mid-market and enterprise software organizations, today announced that Gartner has named it a Leader in the 2026 Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for Developer Productivity Insight Platforms (DPIPs). LinearB was evaluated on both Ability to Execute and Completeness of Vision.

The market's progression to growing executive demand for evidence-based measures of value delivery, the rapid adoption of AI coding tools, and the need to govern AI-enabled software delivery at scale. Gartner estimates the DPIP market at approximately $400 million with an average growth rate of over 40 percent, based on an assessment of global organizational spending on data-driven engineering analytics platforms.

LinearB gives engineering leaders the visibility and tools to act on engineering productivity. They explore their data through a natural-language interface, build a measurement framework across the full SDLC using unified metrics, benchmarks, and developer surveys. They act on what they find directly inside Git, where code governance policies and a code review agent analyze pull requests before merge, giving developers specific, actionable findings without requiring manual intervention.

"Engineering organizations are under real pressure to prove the impact of AI investment, and most of them are trying to do that with disconnected tools and incomplete data," said Ori Keren, CEO and co-founder of LinearB. "Being named a Leader in the first Gartner Magic Quadrant for this category, we feel, reflects what our customers have been telling us for years, that measuring AI is not enough. The platforms that win will be the ones that turn engineering data into action, automatically and at scale, and that is where we have invested."

Leaders demonstrate strong execution across multiple functional use cases and deliver meaningful business outcomes through enterprise-grade DPIP capabilities. Leaders also show consistent roadmap momentum, have a clear market vision, and have the operational maturity, CX and market presence to support cross-functional deployments at scale.
