Run sprints without leaving your operations platform.

Groom a backlog, plan a sprint, work it on a focused board, and close it with velocity and a burndown you didn’t have to maintain. Unfinished work rolls back to the backlog automatically — nothing is lost, nothing is fudged.

Backlog

Plan from one place

Size the work

Rolling average

Burndown

Remaining vs ideal

What's shipped

Real agile mechanics — not a checkbox.

Every capability below is live today.

Backlog & planning board

A project backlog beside your sprints; drag work “into” a sprint or send it back to the backlog from one planning screen.

Sprint lifecycle

Sprints move planning → active → completed, each with a goal and start/end dates. Only one clear flow, fully audited.

Sprint board

A Kanban board scoped to the active sprint so the team sees just the work in play — grouped by status.

Story points

Size tasks in points; the sprint totals them so commitment and capacity are visible at planning time.

Velocity

Completed story points per finished sprint, plus a rolling average — a grounded basis for forecasting the next one.

Burndown

An inline chart of remaining work versus the ideal line, computed from completion timestamps — no nightly snapshot job to babysit.

Carry-over on close

Completing a sprint automatically returns unfinished tasks to the backlog, so nothing silently disappears or looks “done”.

Same tasks, new lens

Sprints organize the very same tasks you plan and track elsewhere — no separate “agile items” to keep in sync.

Permission-gated

Sprint management is gated by project-edit permissions; assigning tasks to sprints uses task-edit — on your existing roles.

The sprint loop

Plan, commit, deliver, learn.

A clean loop with honest metrics — velocity and burndown are derived from real completion, not hand-entered.

1

Groom

Shape the backlog and size tasks in points

2

Plan

Pull work into the sprint; set a goal

3

Deliver

Work the sprint board day to day

4

Close

Record velocity; carry unfinished work back

Metrics you can trust

Velocity and burndown, computed — never typed in.

Because the sprint tracks the same tasks you already complete, its metrics come straight from the data. Velocity sums the story points of work actually finished in each sprint; burndown reads completion timestamps against the ideal line. No spreadsheet, no snapshot job, no fudging.

  • Velocity = completed story points per finished sprint, plus a rolling average.
  • Burndown = remaining work vs the ideal line, from real completion times.
  • Carry-over returns unfinished tasks to the backlog on close — honest counts.
  • One source of truth: sprint metrics and project progress agree.

Questions

The practical details.

Do sprints use separate “agile items”?

No. A sprint organizes the same tasks you plan and track everywhere else — assign a task to a sprint or send it back to the backlog. There’s no parallel data to keep in sync.

What happens to unfinished work when a sprint ends?

Completing a sprint automatically carries incomplete tasks back to the backlog, so nothing is lost and velocity reflects only what truly finished.

How is velocity calculated?

It sums the story points of tasks completed in each finished sprint, and also shows a rolling average across sprints as a forecasting basis.

Is the burndown a nightly snapshot?

No — it’s computed on the fly from task completion timestamps against the ideal line, so there’s no background job to maintain or break.

Can I combine sprints with the Gantt?

Yes. Sprints and planning/Gantt operate on the same tasks — use the timeline for the big picture and sprints for iteration cadence.
