About us
Whether it’s crunching public adoption numbers to make a recommendation to product teams on new programming languages to support, helping marketing craft developer-friendly messaging or helping senior leadership understand emerging developer-led trends and their implications, RedMonk exists to help companies understand and work with developers. We see a different world than most. We see: * A world increasingly dominated by the practitioner: the developer, designer, DBA, sysadmin or operator. * A world increasingly driven by bottom up adoption of open source software and cloud based hardware. * A world in which much of the software we deploy was built by Web companies. * A world in which decision making is distributed and social. * A world in which the kingmakers aren’t enterprise salespeople wearing expensive shoes and crisp blue cotton shirts, but hackers in t-shirts writing code. When we founded RedMonk in 2002, things were different. Other industry analyst firms were all about purchasing driven technology adoption, understanding dominant big vendors that sold software to a few senior executives in 18 month sales cycles, who then foisted their choices on to developers in the trenches. But we saw the change coming and helped the industry understand and prepare for it. With each year that passes, our thesis that developers are the New Kingmakers becomes less controversial. But even as the technology world has come around to the idea that developers are important, the question becomes: how best to engage with these new kingmakers? That’s what we do at RedMonk every day. If you’re looking for an analyst or research firm that understands developers, and is easy and fun to work with, we should talk.

Anyone following the enterprise #AI space, as we are at RedMonk, can't help but notice recent shifts in marketing AI tools from targeting individuals (code assistants, GPT chatbots, image generators) to teams (Microsoft Team Copilot, Google Workspace, Atlassian Confluence). The keywords “team” and “collaborate” could be heard on nearly every keynote stage in recent months, and this is significant. Tech companies are doubling down on positioning AI as an instrument for accelerating business. Enterprise generative AI, we are told, will revolutionize the ways that companies operate. But what does this evolution bode for individual contributors, and developers specifically? Some imagine a Kafkaesque nightmare in which AI note takers summarize AI-written emails, and in the process generate a mountain of text that no one ever reads. Others worry that by integrating AI into every node of the software development lifecycle (SDLC) AI code assistants will start QAing code written by AI code assistants in systems architected by AI. Garbage in; garbage out. But despite these fears the tech companies selling AI services are bullish about AI’s potential for augmenting organizational velocity, efficiency, and productivity. In this post I discuss the shift in AI marketing from individual to team. As AI technology has become technologically approachable and priced more accessibly, companies are finding new ways to harness it in the workplace. Text, code, and image generation for personal use was the first era, but strategy and synthesis is the next horizon. In terms of software engineering, by shifting to encompass more of the SDLC, AI is being positioned as a tool for optimizing organizational success, rather than just a siloed assistant.
AI Assistants are Now Organizational Accelerants
