Free tools

Free tools for software-delivery teams

No signup. No tracking. Pure client-side calculators that teach the framework instead of selling you on it. Each one is calibrated against real team data.

Coming next

We're building more free tools (velocity tracker, defect- prediction calculator, AC-quality scorer) all calibrated against real Stride beta-customer data. They'll surface here as they ship.

About these tools

Are these tools really free?
Yes, no signup, no tracking, no email capture. Each tool runs entirely client-side; nothing leaves your browser. The tools exist to teach the underlying framework (capacity, estimation, DORA tiers, ADRs) more than to act as a marketing funnel.
What data are the tools calibrated against?
Where calibration matters (sprint capacity, story-point estimation, PR review time), the defaults are calibrated against Stride beta-customer telemetry, typically 400-5,000 real artefacts depending on the tool. The DORA calculator uses Google's 2024 State of DevOps thresholds. The ADR generator follows Michael Nygard's 4-section format.
Can I embed these tools in my own site?
Not as embeds, but you're welcome to link to them and the canonical URLs will stay stable. We maintain backwards-compatible URLs across all framework changes.
What's the relationship between the tools and the Stride platform?
The tools are standalone. They don't require a Stride account and don't connect to the Stride platform. They're the framework distilled to its essence. The Stride platform takes the same framework and applies it continuously against your team's real data (PTO from HRIS, velocity from sprint history, deploys from CI/CD, etc.).
How often are the tools updated?
When the underlying framework changes (e.g. DORA thresholds drift year-over-year), we update annually. When the tool surfaces UX issues, we fix as we notice. The tool definitions and calibration constants are version-controlled with comments pointing at the source year for each constant.
