Built by a software team,
for software teams.
Axify was born at Nexapp, a software development company in Québec City. We needed to measure our own delivery. We built the tool, then opened it to other teams.
Before Axify,there was Nexapp.
Nexapp was founded in Québec City in 2014 by three software engineers. It builds custom software for organizations of every size, from startups to large enterprises.
Shipping software has been our job for more than ten years. Axify came from trying to do it better.
A problem we livedfrom the inside.
With dozens of client projects at once, Nexapp’s teams asked the same questions our customers ask today. Where does work wait? Are we shipping faster than six months ago? The answers were in Jira and Git, but nobody could see them without compiling numbers by hand.
Nothing on the market fit. Between two projects, a developer connected to the Jira API to pull the first metadata. Alexandre Walsh, Nexapp co-founder, drew on DORA research to turn it into a real measurement tool. Nexapp used it on its own teams first.
“We needed a tool to measure our performance. So we created one.”
In 2020, other teams wanted the same tool. Axify became a commercial platform, run by Axify Technologies inc. It is still built, and used every day, by Nexapp’s teams.
Today, AI is changing how code gets written, and the question changed with it: is AI really making us ship faster? Axify measures the adoption, impact and cost of AI coding tools, next to the delivery metrics the product started with.
Two companies.One delivery culture.
Nexapp builds software for its clients. Axify measures how engineering teams deliver. Each one feeds the other.
Tested on real projects
Nexapp’s teams track their projects in Axify. Every feature goes through our own delivery first.
Built by practitioners
The product comes from more than ten years of delivered projects. The metrics it tracks are the ones we use to make decisions.
Support beyond the tool
When your teams want to go further, Nexapp’s specialists can help you improve your delivery.
AI isn’t the goal.Faster, better delivery is.
AI is a powerful lever. But a lever you can’t see is one you can’t pull with confidence. Measuring its effect on delivery is the only way to know it works.
Measure, don’t guess
Numbers from your tools, not impressions or surveys. The same definitions for every team.
Flow, not lines of code
We follow how work moves, from first commit to production. Not vanity metrics.
Your data stays yours
Read-only integrations, no manual entry. Axify never reads your code or your prompts.
