Background

There are lots of project management tools now, and the internal information is scattered around in those tools.

Describe Your Proposed Solution

User stories

Possible pipelines

Concrete example

Highlight the Benefits

It can solve the problem in the real world.

Anything Else?

Possible components

• Note: The sequence means the priority.

Application components

• GitHub
• Jira
• Trello
• Asana
• Linear
• …

Reference tools

• I have not found the close product. We could imagine that the tools have been integrated AI solutions internally, such as Asana / Notion / Gmail /…
• But, they do not have the process to sync the information to other ApplicationSource.
  • e.g. Asana information -> AI tools -> Linear / Slack / Gmail /…

Milestones

1. Read the current pipelines

4. Connect those components.
