The benefit of this AI agent

Ensure your release backlog is ready for implementation. This AI agent quickly reviews all the features in a release to spot if any important details are missing. The AI assistant looks for potential duplicates and checks each feature against a set of completeness criteria (including a link to a strategic initiative, product value score, estimate, customer feedback, and dependencies). It then summarizes the overall readiness of the release backlog and ranks the features in priority order — noting any that need further refinement. This saves you hours of time preparing for roadmap updates or sprint planning.
