Why teams leave GitHub Projects
- Basic kanban — no sprints, no backlog grooming, no velocity
- No AI agents or automation beyond simple project workflows
- No time estimates, story points, or capacity planning
- Limited reporting — no burndown, cycle time, or throughput
- No environment / deployment pipeline tracking
- Team collaboration features are very basic
Why teams switch to AgileTune
Deep GitHub Sync
Branches auto-link, PRs update task status, merges move cards. Better GitHub tracking than GitHub Projects itself.
Sprint Management
Full sprint planning, backlog grooming, velocity tracking, burndown charts, and retrospective tools.
AI Agents
Assign AI teammates to plan sprints, review code, write tests, and triage bugs — contextually linked to your GitHub repos.
Team Analytics
Velocity, cycle time, lead time, throughput, and individual contributor insights — not just a list of issues.
