The Foundation

Scrum Tool & Agile ManagementA complete agile platform, without compromises.

Backlog, sprints, kanban, planning poker, reviews and retrospectives: everything is native, without requiring paid third-party marketplace plugins.

The Backlog

3-Level Backlog Management (Super Epic, Epic, Ticket)

Super Epic, Epic, Ticket. The intermediate level is missing in most tools, yet it's the key to framing product vision without overwhelming engineering teams.

Kanban columns represent your actual project statuses, not a parallel list to maintain separately.

  1. 1Active Sprint: goal, days remaining, completed tickets, and story points delivered, updated live above the board.

Full Hierarchy

Super Epic for vision, Epic for feature sets, Ticket for work items. Each level has its dedicated view, filters, and progress calculations.

Acceptance Criteria

Checkable, versioned criteria on every ticket. The Definition of Done stops being an oral agreement and becomes verifiable software quality.

Subtasks

Technical breakdowns live inside the ticket, keeping the backlog clean without distorting team velocity metrics.

Custom Types & Statuses

Configure your ticket types and kanban columns per project with custom labels, colors, and behaviors. Board columns reflect actual status.

Reusable Tags

Project-level tags applicable across tickets, epics, and super epics, fully filterable everywhere.

User Story Library

87 ready-to-use user stories across 17 domain themes, equipped with 408 acceptance criteria to kickstart backlogs in minutes.

Frictionless Editing: status, priority, and sprint assignment can be changed inline directly from lists or board cards in one click, without opening modal dialogs.

Agile Ceremonies

Integrated Scrum Ceremonies & Agile Rhythms

Every Scrum ceremony has its dedicated interface. None redirects to third-party apps or shared external documents.

In Jira, Planning Poker requires a paid Marketplace plugin. In Manifst, it's a native built-in screen.

Assisted Sprint Planning

Calculates team capacity over the sprint period, compares commitment to available points, and alerts if overcommitting. Ticket order and capacity are saved across sessions.

Live Planning Poker

Collaborative estimation with live voting, hidden cards, simultaneous reveal, and automatic saving of agreed points straight into backlog tickets.

Kanban & Daily Tracking

Real-time board with drag-and-drop, filters by assignee, type, and tag, plus instant search across all project content.

Sprint Review & Presentation

Iteration review with velocity metrics, sprint goal verdict (achieved, partial, unachieved), and 1-click PowerPoint export including velocity charts.

Structured Retrospectives

Dedicated retrospective columns, team voting, and action item tracking. External guests can join via link without accounts. Reports export to PDF or email.

Velocity & Capacity

Velocity calculated over closed sprints, capacity measured against real working days. Objective data that grounds commitment discussions in empirical facts.

"A very solid product after just a few months of development that already suits most SMBs and even enterprise companies."

AI Assistance

AI works directly inside your backlog

8 dedicated AI assistants connected to your live tickets. None generates loose text documents that require manual copy-pasting.

Launchpad

Answer product prompts, and AI proposes a complete hierarchy of Super Epics, Epics, and Tickets to review before creation.

Acceptance Criteria

Generates missing acceptance criteria from the user story description.

Technical Subtasks

Suggests developer subtasks on a ticket, ready for validation or editing.

Assisted Estimation

Story point suggestions calibrated on project history to assist team voting.

Story Quality Audit

Writing check that flags vague descriptions, oversized stories, or unverifiable criteria.

Retrospective Synthesis

Groups team feedback into themes and suggests actionable follow-up items.

Document Importer

Pre-fills product framing specifications directly from existing PDF or Word files.

Risk Suggestions

Scans the backlog to suggest unidentified project risks and mitigation plans.

AI assistants consume AI credits, included in paid plans. The Starter plan provides access to all core agile features without generative assistance.

The Next Step

And all this daily work starts producing governance data

Delivered points become Earned Value. Logged hours become Actual Cost. Their ratio calculates performance indices (CPI, SPI) and completion forecasts. Your dated epics become a Gantt roadmap.

Zero extra effort for the dev team. None of this replaces agility: everything flows directly from it.

Integrations

Manifst connects with your toolchain

GitHub

Attach commits and pull requests to tickets, with auto-closing on PR merge to your target column.

Slack

Real-time project event notifications sent to team channels.

Discord

Rich webhooks for project events, configurable per event type.

Jira

Two-way sync for tickets, descriptions, and comments. Perfect for transitioning teams.

REST API

Versioned API with scoped keys. Direct connection to Power BI without manual export files.

Agile Platform FAQ

Do we have to follow Scrum strictly to the letter?

No. Statuses, ticket types, and kanban columns are configurable per project. Continuous flow teams can ignore sprints and work solely on the board without losing backlog or retrospectives.

Can we import an existing backlog?

Yes, via CSV import or using our built-in Jira connector. The user story library also lets you build an initial backlog from templates.

Does Planning Poker work remotely?

Yes. Live shared sessions where everyone votes from their browser, votes are revealed simultaneously, and agreed points are saved directly to backlog items.

Can external stakeholders participate in retrospectives?

Yes. An invitation link allows guests to contribute without creating an account or requiring a paid license.

How fast can we get started?

A project takes minutes to set up. With Launchpad or the story library, an initial backlog is populated immediately. Your first sprint can start today.
