“We never knew a Planning Poker could be so much fun. We were using [name redacted] earlier, but it required a lot of sync up and moving away from Slack. With StoryPlan, it's all become very simple. We do one planning session every week with StoryPlan."
Testimonial Avatar Elliot Scott
Since we started using StoryPlan, our time spent in estimating stories has reduced by almost 80%. In our workflow, we usually post links to JIRA stories in a Slack channel, and StoryPlan converts them into agile stories to be pointed."

Our team moved to remote culture after Covid-19 hit the entire country. We were looking for a tool do replace our physical planning sessions that we did earlier. We were surprised to see how efficiently StoryPlan was able to fill the gaps in our workflow. In fact, it made us more productive.
