Your best consultant. Working every night.

A one-off audit costs six figures and is stale the week the consultants leave. Checks reads your tickets, your commits and your AI spend every night, tells you which standards slipped, and what to do about each one.

01The chain

Your standards live in three systems. All three are ungoverned.

Break one link and the whole chain stops being provable. Checks reads all three every night, on read-only access, and reports what slipped.

What actually shipped, and whether it matches the ticket.

What delivery cost in tokens, and what it returned.

02Failure modes

What a broken chain looks like.

Every finding carries a severity, a location and an owner. These four are the ones that cost the most.

  • High

    Epic with no stated customer and no expected return

    Intent with no purpose. Nobody can say later whether it was worth building.

  • Warning

    Ticket attached to no epic

    Execution with no intent. Work happened and the roadmap never heard about it.

  • Warning

    Commit that has nothing to do with the ticket it references

    The link is there. The audit trail behind it is fiction.

  • Info

    Token spend with no delivery behind it

    Cost with no return. This is the line item finance asks about.

03How it works

We did not automate the rules. We automated the reviewer.

No linter can decide that a review was rubber-stamped, or that a commit has nothing to do with the ticket it claims. That takes reading both sides and forming a judgment.

Agents do that nightly, across every repository and every board. Each finding has a severity, a location, an owner and a state.

Every finding has a state
OpenIgnoredResolved

The same discipline you already apply to bugs, applied to how the work gets done.

04Whose standards

The defaults did not come from us.

They are what disciplined engineering orgs already enforce, codified with the engineering leaders and fractional CTOs who fix these problems for a living. You start on their judgment, not on a blank rule editor.

01

Day one

Our defaults run against your Jira, your repositories and your spend. Nothing to configure.

02

Week two

Your rules, your severities, your thresholds. Anything you disagree with, you change.

03

From then on

Your standards stop being a document nobody opens and start being something with a state.

Every rule, severity and threshold is yours to overwrite. If your team holds a standard we never thought of, it becomes a check.

05The real problem

Nobody can prove ROI on AI tooling. That is not an AI problem.

You cannot prove return on engineering until the process is clean enough to trace a dollar back to a decision. Sloppy process is not a hygiene problem. It is an attribution problem: the data exists, the links between it do not.

EngineeringRoadmap deliveryBusiness KPIsthe path you can measure

Roadmap delivery is the join. Trace a commit to a ticket, a ticket to a priority, and the dollar follows. Checks is what keeps that chain intact.

06The payoff

Every finding you close shows up in your ETV.

Checks is not a hygiene dashboard. A clean chain is the thing that makes performance measurable in the first place. As findings close, the link from a commit to a ticket to a priority holds, and ETV becomes a number you can put in front of a board.
