# Showel — AI Usage Analytics for Development Teams

> Track, analyze, and optimize AI coding assistant usage across Cursor, Copilot, Claude, and ChatGPT — all from your Jira workspace.

## Overview

Showel is an Atlassian Marketplace app built on Atlassian Forge. It gives engineering teams complete visibility into AI coding tool usage and costs without requiring a separate dashboard or login. AI insights appear directly on Jira issues as custom fields, and team-wide analytics are available through native Jira admin pages.

## The Problem Showel Solves

AI coding assistants promise productivity gains, but teams lack visibility into:
- Who is using which AI tools and how much they cost (Visibility Gap)
- Whether AI tool spending is delivering ROI (Budget Uncertainty)
- Which seats are underutilized vs. which developers are power users (Optimization Blindspot)

## Features

### Developer Analytics
See exactly who uses AI tools and how much. Spot adoption trends before they become budget surprises. Track token consumption per developer over time.

### Cost Management
Know your AI spend in real time. Set budget alerts before costs spiral. Includes forecasting and cost allocation by project or department.

### Jira Native Integration
AI insights appear right on your Jira issues. Custom fields, admin configuration pages — no new tool to learn, no context switching required.

### Multi-Platform Support
Cursor AI is fully supported today. GitHub Copilot, Claude Code, and ChatGPT integrations are coming soon.

### Team Insights
Understand adoption patterns across your team. Correlate AI usage with team velocity and delivery metrics.

### Compliance & Security
Your data stays on Atlassian Forge — encrypted in transit and at rest, with comprehensive audit logs. Enterprise-ready.
