Our blog shares analyst foresight based on data-driven insights on developer trends, AI engagement, adoption and AI tool benchmarks, cloud, DevOps, open source, tooling, and emerging technologies.
We publish:
• Research highlights from our global developer surveys
• Analysis of developer adoption and sentiment trends
• Commentary on AI, productivity, and tooling shifts
• Strategic perspectives for product, marketing, DevRel, and engineering leaders
Every post connects market signals to real business cases and decisions.
Our posts are mainly written by Alvaro, Bleona, Liam, Nikita, Jed our SlashData analysts, the de facto subject-matter experts.
Our analysts behind the articles:
• Design and run our independent, global developer research programmes
• Analyse behavioural and sentiment data
• Work directly with technology leaders across product, marketing, and engineering
You’re reading insights from the same team trusted to inform high-stakes strategic decisions.
Some posts are written by Andrea, Stathis, Petro, and Natasa, who help match the data to the business cases and problems we are solving.
Our reports deliver deep datasets and structured analysis.
The blog makes those insights timely and accessible, and does not go as deep.
Our blog articles
• Explain what the data means in practical terms
• Connects trends to current industry shifts
• Surfaces emerging signals earlier
• Highlights implications for roadmap, positioning, and growth
Think of it as applied research in motion.
The blog is for leaders and decision-makers who need evidence, not noise.
Including:
• Heads of Product
• Product Marketing leaders
• DevRel and Developer Marketing teams
• CTOs and VP Engineering
• AI strategy and tooling leaders
If developer behaviour impacts your revenue, roadmap, or positioning, this content is for you.
Our insights are grounded in large-scale, global developer research.
We:
• Run independent developer surveys across regions and technologies
• Apply rigorous data cleaning and weighting
• Analyse longitudinal trends
• When we share a viewpoint, it is anchored in observed data, not speculation.
Absolutely. Just make sure you credit us as this adds more weight to your presentation. If you are unsure about whether you can use a piece of content, please contact us.
Many readers use our blog to:
• Support internal discussions
• Frame executive conversations
• Validate strategic assumptions
• Identify emerging risks or opportunities
For deeper validation, we also provide tailored data and advisory support.
We publish regularly as new trends emerge and new research waves are analysed. Our surveys run every 6 months, so as soon as the data is in, our analysts dive into it.
Through our tailored surveys and collaborations with large organisations in Tech, we explore more focused topics and write about them.
Topics evolve with the developer ecosystem, especially across AI, cloud, developer productivity, developer awarenes and adoption and market shifts.
