Free Tools
Focused calculators and checkers that give you an answer you can defend. Rules-based, so the same input always produces the same result.
Story Health Checker
Paste a user story and get its INVEST quality, Definition of Ready, acceptance-criteria coverage, ambiguities and blockers, with the evidence behind every score.
Scope Readiness Checker
Paste a brief, RFP scope, change request, specification, integration or migration requirement and find out whether it is ready for refinement, estimation or delivery, and exactly what must be clarified first.
Sprint & Team Capacity
Calculate realistic sprint and team capacity from sprint dates, working calendars, planned leave, project allocation and delivery overhead.
Project Margin Calculator
Calculate project gross margin, commercial headroom, pricing and cost guardrails, break-even protection, sensitivity, stress cases and exact target recovery options.
Delivery Predictability
Use your team's actual delivery history to calculate target probability, P50/P80/P95 completion forecasts, delivery variability and the smallest scope or timeline change needed to reach a defensible confidence level.
Intelligent Utilities
Paid AI utilities that fix, recommend and optimise where the free tools diagnose.
AI Story Fix
Assesses your whole backlog for free, then refines the stories you choose: acceptance criteria, business rules, dependencies and NFRs, with before and after quality scores.
