Free tools for software-delivery teams
No signup. No tracking. Pure client-side calculators that teach the framework instead of selling you on it. Each one is calibrated against real team data.
Story-point estimator
Maps 5 dimensions of a story — complexity, scope, unknowns, dependencies, testing effort — to a Fibonacci estimate (1, 2, 3, 5, 8, or 13). Or flags it for splitting.
Framework: Teaches the 5-dimension framework: estimating effort directly collapses risk into a fake-precise number; estimating across independent axes produces calibrated results.
Calibrated against ~3,000 stories from Stride beta customers.
Open the estimatorSprint capacity calculator
Takes 6 inputs — team size, sprint length, PTO, meetings, on-call, velocity — and outputs realistic sprint capacity in points, with a breakdown of where time goes.
Framework: Naive capacity (team × days) overestimates by 40-50%. PTO + meetings + on-call rotation are the three biggest gaps; this calculator surfaces each so teams stop systematically over-committing.
Calibrated against ~400 sprint plans from Stride beta customers.
Open the calculatorPR review-time estimator
Estimates code-review wall-clock time + quality risk from a PR's size, files changed, tests, and cross-module scope. Outputs an easy / medium / hard / split tier.
Framework: PR size predicts review quality. Cohen 2006 + Bosu et al. 2017 + GitHub 2023 data converge: review quality drops sharply past 400 LOC, becomes essentially impossible past 800. The calculator quantifies it so teams can self-regulate.
Grounded in published research (Cohen 2006, Bosu 2017, GitHub 2023).
Open the estimatorAI delivery ROI calculator
Takes 4 inputs (team size, hourly cost, hours saved per week, monthly seat fee) and outputs annual savings, cost, ROI multiple, and payback days. Conservative defaults.
Framework: Hours saved × hourly cost minus seat fees. Marketing-leaning — we say so on the page — but every input is yours to control. Defaults reflect mid-market US engineering economics with conservative hours-saved (5/week, the low end of Stride beta telemetry).
Hours-saved range from telemetry across 5,200 stories on Stride beta customers.
