Stepsize

Stepsize is a product intelligence platform that integrates directly with Jira and Linear to automatically generate dynamic dashboards and reports for engineering teams. Its core functionality revolves around using generative AI to transform raw issue tracker data into digestible, narrative-driven updates. Instead of requiring manual configuration or dashboard building, Stepsize pulls data from Jira boards or Linear teams and creates visual metrics—such as sprint burndown, cycle time, throughput, and flow efficiency—accompanied by AI-written commentary that explains what the numbers mean in plain English. This eliminates the need for product managers and engineering leads to spend time interpreting charts or digging through tickets. The AI commentary is context-aware: it identifies completed work, highlights bottlenecks, surfaces changes in team velocity, and aligns commentary with epic structures. Users can view progress at a glance with source links to investigate specific issues. The platform also supports project-level AI insights, which summarize completed work per epic or sprint, and can zoom into granular detail by individual ticket or assignee. Reports are delivered on a weekly, automated basis, keeping stakeholders informed without manual effort. Stepsize is particularly useful for teams that want to maintain transparency across product development without overhead. It reduces the friction of reporting by generating narratives that explain why metrics changed—for example, whether a drop in velocity was due to unplanned work, blocked tickets, or team capacity shifts. This helps engineering managers and product owners align on sprint goals, identify process improvements, and communicate progress to non-technical stakeholders. The platform was acquired by ClickUp,
