TRUST SIGNALS
Key highlights of the appRapid, reliable effort estimates for the whole project—not only the next sprint. With transparent risks—from presales to delivery

Define work packages in seconds
You can define work packages in seconds in excel style by just typing the titles. If Jira issues already exist, you can simply load them by clicking the button “Load Jira issues”
Quick gut-feel ranges: Min / Max / Guess / Unknown
Experienced developers can type in gut-feel minimum and maximum efforts often quite fast. To express uncertainty, they can give an additional “Unknown%”
All other efforts are calculated automatically
The sum of all the min/max/guess/unknown values are calculated as effort for the base activity, often implementation. The efforts for all other activities and the total effort are calculated automatically.
More details
How it works
- Create work packages (or load epics/stories/tasks from Jira).
- Enter Min, Max, a Guess (most likely), and an Unknown % to express uncertainty.
- Fast Estimate calculates implementation effort and automatically derives other activity categories (e.g., testing, requirements)
- Get an instant view of total effort, including uncertainty and risk.
Why teams use it
- Early and reliable effort estimates in minimal time
- Transparent risk buffer
