Measuring Agent Impact on Team Productivity: Best Practices and Insights

·
·

Happy New Year, Dust Community! 🎉 Quick question: How are you measuring the impact of your agents on your teams' productivity? At Doctolib, we've deployed agents to automate repetitive tasks and support data-driven decisions. While early feedback are very promising, we want to set a quantitative targets for these productivity gains Has anyone built a similar productivity measurement system? We're specifically interested in:

  • What metrics are you tracking?

  • How do you collect and validate this data?

  • Have you found ways to isolate AI's impact from other productivity factors?

If you're interested in building something similar (my scope is T&P), I'd be happy to share our findings and learnings so far. Thanks

    Hey Bastien Mouquet ! Happy new year to you too 🌟 Unfortunately measuring impact is never easy. When I was at Alan we decided to have a double approach:

    • Marco:

    • Dust daily active members

    • Avg daily message per active members

    • A qualitative survey: "how much time do you save per week"

    • Micro:

    • For specific, high leverage use cases, we'd have a look time taken for achieving a task before & after

    • Example: reducing meeting prep time for sales without Dust vs with Dust

    • Then we look at adoption of the given assistant

    With the 2, we could get closer to a overall impact for Dust. But it wasn't perfect 😕

    I am personally very excited about some of the tools coming soon for builders to get feedback on their assistants. You'll see usage per assistant & 👍/👎 convo from the team. Those will also help measure impact in a more decentralized way.
