Q1 2025 AI Coding Trend Brief: What Teams Actually Shipped

What moved

• 54% of teams adopted reversible deployments for agents touching production data.
• Eval suites are now run in CI for 3 of the top 5 use cases: onboarding, reporting, and support triage.
• Agent latency targets tightened: 250ms for UI assists, 1.5s for data workflows.

Friction we saw

Security reviews still stall when logs lack citations. Teams that shipped changelog receipts closed deals 3x faster.
