New framework measures AI coding agent productivity, ROI

A new framework may help organizations measure if AI coding agents really improve developer productivity, since results from public studies are mixed and sometimes show slower task completion. The framework suggests collecting baseline data before using AI, tracking metrics like AI code rework, incident rates, and time saved. Teams should tag files created by AI and use control groups to better see the AI's real impact. Financial results might be calculated by comparing hours saved to the cost of tools, but reported productivity gains may only be about 2.1 percent after costs. The results should be shown together in a dashboard to make sure improvements are real and not just about speed.
