Key outcomes include a 90% reduction in time from idea to production (20 days to under 2 days), 75% of all PRs created by agents, and a 55% increase in PRs merged per engineer. The shift involved redesigning sprint planning, moving engineers to higher-level abstractions, and forming smaller teams with broader scope. Engineering director Chintan Turakhia drove adoption through agent speedruns, internal champions, and a new 'Superbuilders' role focused on engineering velocity. Coinbase now measures success by time-to-production rather than lines of code. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
