Cut your GitHub Copilot token bill, locally. Certance Field compresses oversized context before it reaches the model, redacts and scans for secrets, and exports audit evidence. No cloud, no external calls.
About I founded Certance Advisory (certance.eu), a quality engineering consultancy for regulated software teams. Our Coverage Audit maps automated tests to the business journeys that matter and shows in writing what is tested and what is still exposed: evidence a Head of Risk or a regulator can read.
13 years in regulated software delivery, building and leading test automation. Today a Chapter Lead at a global investment bank; earlier, life sciences and defence systems.
Certance-Field, built in the open on GitHub, cuts GitHub Copilot token costs by compressing context locally before it reaches the model.
