Haystack Introduces Solution to End Chronic Software Delays Worrying 89% of US Business Leaders

Haystack

Research has found that 70% of software projects fail to be delivered on-time, despite 83% of software engineers rating the importance of on-time completion as high or very high*. Haystack today announces the launch of its Software Delivery Ops Platform, to help deliver high-quality software, on-time. New research has also found the vast majority of business leaders consider on-time delivery of software as essential, but are concerned about it at work. Research conducted by Dr Junade Ali CEng FIET and J.L. Partners on behalf of Haystack has also found that 77% of business decision-makers in the UK and 90% in the USA report on-time delivery as the main way they measure the performance of software engineering teams. Despite this, 81% of business decision-makers in the UK and 89% in the USA are concerned about the on-time delivery of software projects in their organisations**. Through analysing millions of data points, Haystack has identified the most critical risks impacting on-time delivery. This allows any software team to identify early signs of delay before they impact on-time delivery. Julian Colina, CEO of Haystack commented: “Most software projects miss their deadlines, stalling growth and eroding trust. Haystack tackles this widespread issue. Our Software Delivery Ops platform transforms data into decisive actions, turning the tide on the 70% project delay rate. With Haystack, teams consistently meet deadlines, fuel business success, and redefine the standards of software delivery.” Haystack ’s Software Delivery Ops Platform provides a suite of tools designed to keep software delivery on-track. Haystack identifies early warning signs of delay at any point in the delivery process while alerting teams to risks or bottlenecks that appear along the way. Despite on-time delivery being so important, recent industry solutions have focussed on using surveys to measure developer experience and “productivity”. However, November 2023 research by Dr Junade Ali CEng FIET has found a variety of failures in such approaches. Quarterly surveys are not only too slow to address early signs of delay but research indicates software engineers are concerned to voice their true opinions and research shows “those with the lowest programming skill” are most likely to be most over-optimistic at evaluating software delivery performance in large projects. 1 Instead, Haystack ’s Software Delivery Ops platform integrates directly into developer tools like Git and Jira - highlighting signs of delay in real-time without needing to wait for the results of time-consuming surveys and without the biases that subjective surveys suffer from. Kan Yilmaz, CTO of Haystack added: “Haystack is transforming the way software is delivered. We use powerful insights to shatter the chronic cycle of delayed software delivery. Our platform is not just a product, it's a manifesto for change, ensuring engineering teams can commit with confidence and deliver with dignity. It's time we change the narrative from why projects are late to how they're launched successfully - on time, every time.” * Research summarised in a letter by Dr Junade Ali CEng FIET, “ R.e. Predictability in Software Engineering ”. ** Research of 500 US and UK business decision makers conducted by J.L. Partners, commissioned by Dr Junade Ali CEng FIET for Haystack. Fieldwork was conducted from 28 th to 29 th November 2023. J.L. Partners is a member of the British Polling Council and abides by its rules.

Stairs Financial raises $3.5M to help next generation of home buyers make moves

Stairs Financial

The number of first time home buyers in the US is shrinking and is at an all-time low. They accounted for just 26% of all home purchases last year, the lowest level in 41 years. Helping these first time home buyers achieve their American Dream, mortgage marketplace Stairs Financial has launched today with a $3.5M funding round. The seed funding round was led by Zigg Capital with participation from Y Combinator, its initial investor Antler, Exceptional Capital and others. This investment will empower Stairs to help millions of young Americans defy economic headwinds like interest rates and high prices to become homeowners. Stair Financial was founded by Malcolm-Wiley Floyd and Scott Fritz, who met as roommates at Harvard. The mortgage marketplace helps connect first time buyers with local lenders as well as detailed down payment assistance. Stairs’ free mortgage comparison product is powered by their database of home buyer programs and mortgage products. It leverages automation and computer vision technology to track changes to assistance programs, like fluctuating rates, updated eligibility requirements, and new program launches. Stairs also provides first time buyers with a growing library of resources and guides to take the uncertainty and unexpected challenges out of buying a home. In addition to their Home Buying Guide, which holds first time buyers’ hands through the basics of interest rates, credit and more, Stairs has also built a specific guide to down payment assistance, focused on how it works and how it can help buyers buy homes with less savings than their parents had. Stairs is now live in Texas with licenses across 40 states. They plan to expand nationwide in early 2024. Stairs is hosting home buyer events in Houston, San Antonio, Austin and Dallas, in collaboration with local real estate experts. Malcolm-Wiley Floyd, CEO and co-founder of Stairs Financial commented: “High interest rates, low inventory and high prices have combined to make it really hard for young Americans to buy homes. Our generation has had to deal with two recessions and a global pandemic during our peak earning and home buying years. Many young Americans won’t be able to afford to buy a home with a conventional 20% down mortgage.” “Thousands of down payment assistance and credit programs have sprung up to help first-time homebuyers overcome the challenges, but these home buying options are hard for home buyers to find and evaluate. Furthermore, home buyers have to find a lender who can underwrite the specific loan program they want to apply for. Stairs helps home buyers find the right mortgage for them, with lower down payments, grants, and flexible underwriting.” Ryan Orley, Managing Partner at Zigg Capital added: "Zigg has studied a number of approaches to expand home affordability. The concept of leveraging technology to navigate the complicated system of incentive programs available to eligible homebuyers is particularly impactful and aligned. We are proud to partner with Malcolm-Wiley and Scott Fritz - they are talented entrepreneurs who deeply understand the problem they are solving at Stairs Financial." Stairs is also committed to addressing the systemic racial injustice in home buying. Black homeownership, at 43.4%, remains lower than it was a decade ago. And it is nearly 30 percentage points behind the White homeownership rate of 72.1%. Meanwhile, the Hispanic homeownership rate is at an all-time high, reaching over 50% for the first time, and the Asian homeownership rate is 61.7%. “The Black-White homeownership gap is larger today than it was ten years ago. As banks and lenders create new programs to address this gap, Stairs plans to incorporate them into their platform and help educate homebuyers on their advantages. As a Black founder, it is important to me that our work at Stairs improves equity and access to home ownership for traditionally disadvantaged communities,” added Malcolm-Wiley Floyd. Ryan Sommerville, General Partner at Antler commented: "Malcolm-Wiley embodies an unwavering commitment to tackling society's real challenges, navigating through the toughest solutions with unyielding focus and an indomitable work ethic. Stairs Financial stands as a testament to his dedication, making it one of my most fulfilling investments to date. We’re incredibly proud to be the first investor in Stairs and looking forward to continuing to back Malcolm-Wiley and the top tier team he’s built.” About Zigg Capital Zigg Capital is a venture capital firm based in New York City that invests globally in technology companies touching the real estate, construction, and retail industries.

Reflection Analytics Launches Digital Platform for Comprehensive ESG Audit and Analysis

Reflection Analytics

Reflection Analytics, a technology company delivering ESG investment evaluation, reporting and advisory services, announced today that it has launched Reflect—the first and only platform for investor-focused ESG analysis, serving asset managers, financial advisors, and investors/institutions across six key areas: advisory, due diligence, compliance, portfolio management, auditing and reporting. Launched just two months after the SEC expanded Rule 35d-1, the “Names Rule,” to include ESG terms, Reflect is the market’s only “Names Rule"-compliant software, providing an investor-focused rating that scores companies across 250 data points in 18 ESG sub-themes while also offering asset managers a portfolio management tool to ensure continuous compliance. Under the SEC’s expanded rule, asset managers have 24 months to begin reporting on their alignment, demonstrating that 80% of their investments are in securities that reflect the terms in their name, or risk regulatory fines and fees. Unlike other ESG rating companies, which focus on only financial materiality and from the corporation’s management perspective, Reflect assesses companies from the perspective of an investor’s understanding and reasonable expectations. “The big ESG ratings agencies aren’t evaluating companies from the investor’s perspective—which the expanded SEC ‘Names Rule' requires—but rather are looking at them from a corporate management perspective, which is a real problem,” said Jason Britton, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Reflection Analytics. “With existing rating methodologies, a company like McDonald’s could have a higher ESG rating than a business focused on reducing greenhouse gases and cleaning up waste. With Reflect, asset managers have, for the first time, the ability to assess investments from the investor’s perspective and at a more granular level.” The SaaS tool assesses companies by benchmarking them against their sector peer group and ranking them by quartile performance. Beyond its use as a compliance tool, Reflect is designed to support values-based investing. The Reflect platform allows advisors, investors and institutions to review portfolios based on ESG components that are most important to them while also identifying types of companies to avoid, such as those associated with weapons or alcohol. After analyzing an investment portfolio, Reflect provides a real-time, percentage-match score, rating investments across 18 sub-themes ranging from “not aligned” to “strongly aligned.” Reflect can also weigh an existing portfolio against a curated list of investments, allowing individuals and institutions to compare assets via a side-by-side analysis. With comprehensive data on 6,500 companies—or 98% of the global market capitalization—the patent-pending software can analyze virtually every asset type, including individual equities, bonds and investments in various structures, including ETFs, mutual funds and SMAs. Like a credit-rating score, Reflect provides investors, advisors and asset managers with the most comprehensive, up-to-date ESG information and the assurance it brings. About Reflection Analytics Reflection Analytics’ patent-pending software—Reflect—is the only ESG ratings tool designed to serve asset managers, financial advisors and investors/institutions across six key areas: advisory, due diligence, compliance, portfolio management, auditing and reporting. Unlike other ESG software, which are reliant on rating methodologies rooted in the corporate perspective, Reflect analyzes 250 data points from an investor-focused viewpoint. As the industry’s only “Names Rule-compliant tool,” Reflect helps portfolio managers meet new compliance standards, with the SEC’s expansion of the “Names Rule” to include ESG funds taking effect in less than two years. Reflect maintains comprehensive self-reported and third-party data on 6,500 companies, or 98% of the global market cap. For more information, visit: www.reflectvalues.com.
