Getting Started with GitKraken Insights

Last updated: September 2025

GitKraken Insights turns raw Git data into clear, useful metrics for developers and leaders. It pulls code activity, pull requests, issues, and CI/CD results into a single view that fits directly into existing workflows.

Instead of surface-level stats, Insights shows how work connects to team goals and points out ways to improve flow and productivity.
