Overview

This skill enables Windsurf usage analytics for teams, tracking AI feature adoption, productivity metrics, and ROI. It produces dashboards and reports that identify training needs, license optimization opportunities, and measurable productivity gains. Use it to justify AI investments and drive continuous improvement.

How this skill works

The skill collects telemetry from Windsurf deployments once analytics are enabled and aggregates usage by user, team, feature, and time period. It computes productivity deltas, cost-versus-benefit ROI estimates, and adoption trends, then surfaces results in configurable dashboards and scheduled reports. Alerts and optimization recommendations are generated when anomalies or inefficiencies are detected.

When to use it

When you need to measure AI feature adoption across teams
To demonstrate ROI for AI initiatives to stakeholders
When reallocating or optimizing license assignments
To identify users or teams that need additional training
When setting baselines and tracking productivity improvements

Best practices

Enable analytics and dashboard access for organization administrators first
Define clear baselines and business metrics before measuring changes
Segment reports by team, role, and feature for actionable insights
Schedule regular report runs and review sessions with stakeholders
Use anomaly alerts to investigate sudden drops or spikes in usage

Example use cases

Monthly executive report showing adoption rate and estimated productivity uplift
License optimization analysis that reduces unused seats and lowers costs
Training program assessment to measure impact on feature usage and efficiency
ROI calculation comparing time saved by AI features versus subscription cost
Operational dashboards highlighting teams with high or low AI engagement

FAQ

What prerequisites are required?

You need a Windsurf Enterprise subscription, organization admin access, and analytics collection enabled.

How are ROI and productivity calculated?

The skill compares defined baselines to observed usage and time-savings estimates, then monetizes efficiency gains against subscription and operational costs.
