Talk Is Cheap: The Operational Impact of LLM Use

Faros.ai released a report comparing transaction-level operational metrics between 4000 software teams using LLMs and those not using LLMs across 22,000 developers. The study found measurable improvements in deployment frequency, incident resolution time, and code review velocity for teams leveraging LLMs in their workflows. These results provide direct evidence of operational efficiency gains from LLM integration in software development. The data is derived from real-time telemetry in Jira, GitHub, and CI/CD pipelines, offering a robust baseline for evaluating AI impact in production environments.
