Understand metric trends with AI Insights

Hivel already shows you the numbers - but now the AI Insights explains what they mean. When you review metrics on the Cockpit board, AI Insights automatically interprets trends and provides context for your team's engineering performance, so you can spend less time asking "why" and more time acting.

How AI Insights works

AI Insights analyzes the data currently selected on your Cockpit board and generates interpretation based on that snapshot. You'll see insights that help you identify patterns, understand performance shifts, and spot early potential bottlenecks

When you'll see insights:

  • Whenever you view a Cockpit board with time-range or filter selection applied

  • For any combination of metrics on your dashboard

When insights aren't generated:

  • Single-day selections (insufficient data for meaningful trend interpretation)

What insights include

Insights provide context in two ways:

Trend interpretation: Why a metric is moving up, down, or staying flat based on your selected data

Relative context: Comparison metrics that help you understand performance in relation to other dimensions (e.g., how a metric compares across teams or time periods)

Next steps you can take

Once you've reviewed insights on a board, drill into specific dashboards to investigate bottlenecks in more detail or dig deeper into root causes.

What is required to enable this

Like all the other AI related features - this requires an AI consent for us to start generating these insights.

The AI consent can be enabled in the Configurations section -> AI -> AI Insights

In Cockpit, the toggle will enable/disable the insights
AI Insights toggle in Configuration screen
