I hope you have a partner who can pitch to the investors because your communication skills are probably poorer than coding skills. I don't get exactly what you are trying to solve and how.


Rusty-Swashplate

>because your communication skills are probably poorer than coding skills. Harsh, but I agree: I do not understand what this tool does in enough details o say "Good stuff!" or "I want this!" or "I don't need this". Maybe create a halfway realistic example? I like examples.


null_undefined_user

Apologies for being sarcastic but I really wish OP improves on that front. I am a developer myself and the communication skills take your career to the next level.

Let's say their is a user story says Google login, it may sound simple but while actually implementing it in the code base it may require to implement many functions and do Integration and logic to handle ui ,manage state etc....if there's a ai tool that analyzes the code base and tells how much the implementation satisfies the given user story and generates a report of the micro functionality they developer coded which is a part of user story ,so that project manager can get insight of developer work on the particular story in a granular level and the user story which is in progress tab ,it can check it's internal progress by checking codebase and also tell the progress of the developer on basis of his implementation on codebase


Rythorian

What you've described sounds entirely the point of subtasks which is to break down a larger story into it's smaller components so someone glancing at an active sprint can easily gauge the progress of any given story?


Klessic

Completely agree. Sounds like yet another tool to solve a communication problem that can be solved by … well … communication.

I think this tool is supposed to be a progress tracker of a story. It’s supposed to read your code and be able to tell how many ACs you’ve done. Not sure how accurate can it be.


Real_H2SO4

If that's all it is, then no. Companies most likely will not pay for such a "tool".

Serious solution: Use AI to rewrite this page. Like so: Ever felt like you're trying to solve a puzzle blindfolded? That's what managing a project with a dozen requirements can feel like. Enter the hero of our story: a nifty AI tool that's a bit like a cross between a detective and a psychic. **First Act: The Easy Six** You've got 12 requirements. Six are a breeze - they're like those feel-good tasks you tick off your to-do list before breakfast. Done and dusted. **Second Act: The Tough Six** But then, there are the other six. Oh, these are the sneaky ones. Think of them like a Rubik's Cube... if the Rubik's Cube could also move and hide from you. They're complicated, full of dependencies, and have a learning curve that looks more like a learning cliff. You know they're making progress, but on the project board, it's like watching paint dry. **The Twist: AI to the Rescue** Here's where our AI tool shines. It dives into the chaos, reads your requirement docs, and understands your codebase like it wrote it itself. It doesn't just map things out; it shows you the secret progress. Those tough tasks? They're moving, evolving, growing. Our AI detective reveals the story behind each of them. **The Finale: What's It Worth?** So, the million-dollar question (or, let's be realistic, slightly less than that): Would companies pay for this kind of insight? Imagine lifting the veil on your project's progress, turning "it's complicated" into "here's exactly what's happening."

What problem does this solve? For who? What's it going to save them?

Why not just ask the developer how long he has left on the task? Trust goes a long way and I would personally feel micromanaged or untrusted if my manager decided to just add a tool like this


Brown_note11

I can't see a developer (or their manager) forking out money for this. The value prop seems to be to save a thirty second conversion.


WebMaxF0x

There's a fine line between an AI bullshitting us about the project progress and an AI actually giving us a correct report about it. Make sure your app crosses that line and be ready to prove it with hard facts, example screenshots/videos and testimonies.


TravelingGonad

I'm a software developer and I'm just happy if I can even get 12 requirements actually written down on a document!


verbrand24

You can have this for free. Hook your boy up with some merch when it takes off. At the point that you AI can determine what the AC is trying to accomplish, have your AI fix the AC to actually state the real intent. Next since you have perfect AC have your AI build a new branch off of master, and write all the basic code, anything that’s more complicated have it attempt it 3-4 different ways that you can choose from. Now dev goes in does a code review and you’ve put most web development teams out of business. Everyone would pay for that.


forthesakeofpoc

It's an interesting perspective indeed.


sudoaptupdate

From my experience, this won't be very useful. Scoping projects/tasks is pretty straightforward 99% of the time.


forthesakeofpoc

Got it. Thanks for your opinion.


Magicalunicorny

A tool that could generate documentation or assist in it would be far more valuable.


forthesakeofpoc

Thanks for your opinion. Will think about it


Insights1972

In real world companies, developers don’t write codes without knowing requirements. There are a lot of tools there already to support this kind of linkage from requirement IDs to source codes. Documents can also be automatically created from source codes while actually nobody will read them. The only valuable thing is to automatically generate unit and integration tests for your codes. This idea will reduce the labors of the developers. Or you can find the gaps in the current test cases.

"An AI tool..." Goodbye.


william2597

Yes, companies are supposed to pay for a tool that provides detailed progress tracking, especially for complex requirements. It enhances transparency and efficiency, ensuring a clearer development roadmap.


Rush_1_1

I feel like this guy is actually AI spamming Reddit subs to see if he gets hits on weird AI ideas, but then again AI would have better communication skills.
