Project management for today's (and tomorrow's) software team.

It starts with Stories

Create a Story to tackle any task, feature, or bug. Then keep things updated via your Kanban board workflow, within your Iteration / Sprint, or from the command line via pull request.

Shortcut allows us to quickly get stories into the workflow, get new features into development, and ship better products.

Catherine Shyu, Product Manager, FullContact

These Stories build towards larger goals

Track company-wide progress with automatically updated Epics, Milestones, and Roadmaps. Everyone can see how their own contributions are impacting larger goals.

Shortcut provides the ability to work on a task list at the smallest level where I can check things off, all the way up to tracking my entire company's engineering velocity at the milestone level.

John Kodumal, CTO / Co-Founder

Sprints help you accomplish those goals

Iterations let you prioritize and track work your team is focusing on within a short, set period of time... you know, a sprint. Built-in reports provide visibility into your priorities and plans.

Iterations allow my teams to set internal delivery estimates — centered around demos — that show progress toward larger company goals. Along the way, iterations provide much-needed visibility into how we're working and whether we're improving over time. The auto-start and completion dates are convenient and encourage us to be rigorous about planning at the predetermined start of each iteration.

Alan Norton, CTO, MealPal

Chart a course with tons of reports

From Velocity and Burndown Charts to Cumulative Flow Diagrams, we’ve built a rich set of views to help you visualize and track progress from every angle.

Shortcut allows us to provide structure and process. It keeps us organized and focused.
