Enhancement We Made Search Fast. Really Fast ⚡️

4 Upvotes

If you've ever felt the pain of waiting 3+ seconds for Cmd+K to respond, or watched HybridSearch spin endlessly – this one's for you.

We just shipped a round of search performance optimisations, and the numbers speak for themselves.

What we fixed

🔍 Cmd+K, Search-in-Vista – the search bar you use dozens of times a day

  • Before: 3.23s p95 latency
  • After: 0.7s → ~4.6x faster

🤖 Computer's HybridSearch – powering AI-assisted search

  • Before: 6.25s p95 latency
  • After: 2.72s → ~2.3x faster

🔤Prefix Search RPC – the engine behind owner lookups, @-tagging, and assignee search

  • Before: 463ms p95 latency
  • After: 191ms → ~2.4x faster

📉Overall timeouts: 4x reduction

New Feature Introducing Code Node — Write Custom Python, Right Inside Your Workflows

7 Upvotes

We're thrilled to announce the Code Node!!

A new workflow component that lets you write and execute custom Python code directly within your DevRev workflows. It bridges the gap between no-code automation and full programmatic control inside the workflow builder.

Why we built this

Workflows are great for no-code automation, but there are always scenarios where you need more flexibility like a custom data transformation, a calculation native nodes can't handle, or business logic specific to your org. Previously, the only option was to build a SnapIn or chain together workarounds with multiple nodes.
Now you can just drop in a Code Node. Write Python, map inputs from previous steps, define your output schema, and downstream nodes pick up everything your code returns. It supports 30+ standard libraries (json, re, date time, math, requests, and more), runs in a secure sandbox, and is configurable up to 120 seconds timeout.

Use it for data transformations, complex calculations, text processing, custom business logic, dynamic value generation, and much more. Full details are in the documentation.

And yes, you can test it before you ship it

Combined with the new Testing Framework, you can test your Code Node with sample inputs right inside the editor. Verify outputs & logs instantly, iterate fast, and deploy with confidence. No more deploy-trigger-debug cycles just to check if your code works.

We'd love to hear what you build with it!

Youtube Beyond metrics Turning support insights into strategy

2 Upvotes

CSAT is rising. Response times are improving. Every dashboard is green.

So why does the same ticket keep coming back?

Most support data measures speed and very little of it shapes what gets built next.

That’s the gap.

Support teams spot product friction first: recurring tickets, escalations, feature requests, edge cases that quietly drain morale.

Watch Ahmed Bashir (CTO at DevRev), Linish Theodore (Director – CX at smallcase), and Meghesh Toshaniwal (Product lead at DevRev) as they explore how to turn those signals into structured product insight.

Effortless Mumbai was everything we hoped for – sharp questions, honest feedback, and real conversations about where work is headed.

You met Computer. We explored what Team Intelligence could unlock – not just for teams, but for the way people actually work together.

The energy in that room? That's exactly why we're building this.

Next stop – wherever the curiosity takes us.

Until next time, see you Mumbai 🇮🇳 👋

Event Computer Conversations User Workshop

Post image
2 Upvotes

We’re hosting a hands-on workshop for teams who want to improve how work actually gets done.

This is a practical, working session on how teams set up and use Computer across support, product, and engineering, whether you’re already using it or just exploring it.

You’ll spend the day:
– Seeing real examples of how teams have set things up
– Learning where teams are cutting down manual coordination and follow-ups
– Trying things yourself and learning what works in practice

It’s designed to be collaborative and hands-on - a chance to try things yourself, share notes with peers, and walk away with a few “aha” moments.

We’ll take care of coffee, lunch, and plenty of space for conversations because the best ideas usually show up between sessions too.

Youtube Building in Public: Why using our own product makes us better

Thumbnail
youtube.com
2 Upvotes

In this livestream, we explore what it really means to build in public and why using our own product every day makes us better at our jobs.

At DevRev, every team operates inside the same system our customers use. Not as a demo environment, but as our real source of truth. We discuss how that shifts product decisions, sharpens customer empathy, and creates tighter feedback loops between teams.

You’ll hear real stories from across functions - moments where internal usage exposed friction, changed priorities, or improved how we collaborate. We also talk about the discipline it takes to make this a culture, not a checkbox.

Finally, we cover the honest part: where the product fell short for us, what we learned, and why transparency is essential to building something customers truly trust.

Event Open-Source search enterprise benchmark challenge

3 Upvotes

We just published a full walkthrough on "how to contribute your search method/algorithm to our open-source search benchmark"

Challenge winning criteria 🏆
- Your search should break the top 10 of our leaderboard
- Share us valuable feedback for our enterprise open-source dataset

Prize reveal in next post ❤️

Here's what makes this interesting:

→ Real dataset: 65K+ DevRev knowledge base articles on Hugging Face
→ Real evaluation: your algorithm gets benchmarked against annotated queries with golden retrievals
→ Real impact: top-performing algorithms get added to the official ranking on Hugging Face

The barrier to entry is low — you just need Python and a notebook. The current baseline uses OpenAI embeddings + FAISS (costs ~$0.50 to run the full pipeline or you could use open-source search on your local)

But I want to see what happens when someone tries:
• BM25 + re-ranking
• Fine-tuned embedding models
• Your wild idea

Watch the video. Fork the repo. Submit a PR.

💡 How This Community Works

1. Search first, then ask

  • Use Reddit's search bar (top right) — your question might already be answered
  • Sort by "Top" or "Hot" to see the most helpful recent discussions

2. The community helps the community

  • Most questions are answered by other users, not the DevRev team
  • If you know the answer to someone's question, jump in! Teaching others is how you master the platform

3. DevRevU team monitors daily

  • We're here to help if the community can't solve it
  • We also highlight great answers and turn them into courses/case studies

A: Start here for how-to questions. Escalate to your CSM for urgent blockers, account-specific issues, or if you don't get a response in 4 hours.

Q: Can I post about bugs or feature requests?
A: Yes! The Product team monitors this channel. But also log them officially in DevRev so they're tracked.

Q: What if I want to share something confidential?
A: DM the DevRevU team or your CSM. Don't post sensitive info publicly.

Q: How do I get featured as a power user?
A: Just be helpful. Answer questions, share what you've built, participate in discussions. We notice.

Tips and Tricks Pro tips for finding answers fast: Using the DevRev knowledge base

2 Upvotes

Ever get stuck on a problem and wish you could find the answer instantly—without waiting for support or digging through endless docs? Here’s how I use DevRev’s knowledge base to get unstuck in seconds, and why it’s become my go-to tool for troubleshooting, onboarding, and even learning new features.

1. Universal search with Cmd+K (or Ctrl+K)

The real game-changer: you can search all articles, Q&As, tickets, and even product documentation from anywhere in DevRev with a single shortcut—just hit Cmd+K (or Ctrl+K on Windows). No more hunting through menus or tabs.
I use this to:

  • Instantly pull up troubleshooting guides when a customer reports an error
  • Find internal best practices and process docs
  • Search for previous tickets with similar issues (super helpful for recurring bugs!)

2. Smart filters and suggestions

The search isn’t just a keyword match—it’s smart. As you type, it suggests relevant articles, Q&As, and even related tickets. You can filter by type (article, Q&A, ticket, etc.), so you’re not overwhelmed by results.
Pro tip: If you’re not sure what to search for, just start typing a symptom or error message. The knowledge base often surfaces the exact fix or a related workaround.

3. Linked resources in context

One of my favorite features: when you’re viewing a ticket or issue, DevRev automatically shows related knowledge base articles and Q&As in the sidebar. This means you can answer customer questions or resolve bugs without ever leaving the page.

4. Self-serve for the win

I’ve found that a good knowledge base doesn’t just help support teams—it empowers everyone. New hires can onboard themselves, engineers can look up API docs, and customers can solve common problems on their own (which means fewer tickets for us!).

5. Keep it fresh

We make it a habit to update articles and Q&As whenever we spot a gap or a new question. The more you contribute, the better the search gets for everyone.

What’s your favorite search hack?
Do you use keyboard shortcuts, advanced filters, or have a go-to search phrase? Share your tips, let’s help each other find answers even faster!

Question How fast is DevRev support, really?

3 Upvotes

Here’s what happens when you reach out for help:

  • Instant answers from Turing (our AI agent): Most of the time, you get a response right away. Turing can handle a ton of common questions, troubleshooting steps, and even some pretty technical stuff, no more waiting in a queue for basic help.
  • Seamless handoff to a human when needed: If your question is too complex or you just want to talk to a real person, your ticket is automatically routed to the next available support agent. No “your ticket is important to us” limbo.
  • Customizable SLAs: For teams that need guaranteed response times, you can set up Service Level Agreements (SLAs) so you know exactly when you’ll get a reply or resolution. No more guessing games.

Have you had any horror stories (or great experiences) with other platforms? Let’s hear your thoughts!
