See How It Works
Ibis Flow captures what other tools miss: the reasoning behind your estimates. Surface similar past work, flag risks during estimation, and build context that makes every session better than the last. Connected to Jira, works on desktop and mobile.
Estimation Today. Prioritisation and Planning Next.
Good teams don't just estimate - they prioritise what matters and plan realistically. Ibis Flow is building all three capabilities, connected together, so decisions in one area inform the others.
Estimation
Available nowHistorical context, hidden votes, confidence signals. Decisions that stick with the ticket.
Prioritisation
March 2026Structured stakeholder input. Surface trade-offs. Build alignment on what ships first.
Planning

Here's how estimation works in detail - including the historical context features that set Ibis Flow apart.
From Jira Ticket to Estimate With Context
Estimation is where teams surface concerns, flag risks, and build shared understanding. Ibis Flow captures all of this and connects it to your Jira backlog.
Connecting to Jira with secure OAuth authentication
Connect Your Jira Board
One-click OAuth connection to Atlassian. Your Product Owner connects once, and the whole team can start estimating. Tickets flow in with full descriptions, acceptance criteria, and attachments.
- Secure OAuth- Enterprise-grade authentication through Atlassian. No passwords stored.
- Full Ticket Details- Descriptions, acceptance criteria, images, attachments. Everything your team needs.
- Two-Way Sync- Estimates save directly to your story points field. No manual copying.
Create an Estimation Session
The Product Owner selects tickets from the backlog, sets the order, and invites the team. Everyone gets an email with a direct link to join.
- Select from Backlog- Pick the tickets you want to estimate. Filter by sprint, epic, or status.
- Set the Order- Arrange tickets how you want to discuss them. Start with clearer items to calibrate.
- Invite Your Team- Team members get an email with a direct link. Join from desktop or mobile.
Selecting tickets from your Jira backlog for the session
Desktop voting interface with full ticket context and voting cards
Vote Together Without Anchoring
Everyone votes on their own device. Votes stay hidden until the reveal. No influence from seeing what others voted first.
- Hidden Until Reveal- Each person votes privately. The first estimate doesn't anchor everyone else.
- Confidence Levels- Indicate how certain you are. High variance with low confidence? Time to discuss.
- Add Notes- Flag concerns before the reveal. Trigger focused discussions.
- Desktop or Mobile- Full voting panel on desktop. Slide-up panel on mobile. Works wherever you are.
Surface Concerns with Reactions
Drag and drop reaction icons onto the ticket to flag issues. Everyone sees concerns appear instantly. Start discussions before the reveal.

Reveal, Discuss, Reach Agreement
The Product Owner reveals all votes at once. See the distribution, average confidence, and who voted what. Differences are highlighted to drive focused discussions.
- Vote Distribution- See how many people voted for each value. Spot outliers immediately.
- Average Confidence- Low confidence across the team? The ticket might need more clarity.
- Focused Discussion- Differences drive conversation. The team discusses and reaches agreement.
- One-Click Accept- Select the agreed value and click Accept. Done.
- Instant Jira Sync- Story points update in Jira immediately. Everyone sees the same number.
What Your Team Has Already Learned
You've estimated similar work before. You've hit the same problems. Ibis Flow surfaces that experience so you don't start from scratch.
A good estimate means the team understood the work. That leads to fewer surprises, less rework, and delivery people can plan around.
Everything your team needs, surfaced before the vote. A ticket overview, focused discussion points, risk signals, complexity drivers, patterns from Jira comments, and similar tickets with real outcomes — all in one brief.
Ticket Summary
Key points, technical considerations, and potential concerns extracted from the ticket details.
Questions Worth Asking
Based on what went wrong before. The conversations you should have now, not after the sprint.
Risk Signals
Patterns from your history that suggest risk. Testing cycles, requirement changes, integration issues - surfaced before you commit.
Complexity Signals
Patterns that affected similar work. Multiple systems, unclear requirements, technical debt - highlighted for discussion.
Signals from Comments
What actually happened on similar tickets, extracted from Jira comments. Back-and-forth issues, requirement confusion - it's all there.
Similar Work You've Done
Matching tickets from your history. What you estimated. What actually happened. No more guessing.
More Than Chat Voting
Most teams estimate by writing numbers in chat during a call. That creates bias, loses context, and repeats past mistakes. Here's what changes with Ibis Flow.
Some tools bypass your security process entirely
Teams reach for free planning tools, connect them to Jira, and move on — without IT knowing. Your Jira tickets contain roadmap plans, security decisions, and upcoming features. That data is valuable. When it flows through unapproved systems with no DPA, no EU data residency, and no SSO integration, it becomes a compliance risk your DPO never signed off on.
Ibis Flow is built to be approved — not discovered.
Data Processing Agreement
Full DPA available for your procurement team. Clear terms on data handling, retention, and deletion.
GDPR Compliant
Privacy by design. Your team's data is processed lawfully and stored securely in the EU.
Enterprise SSO
SAML and OAuth support for integration with your identity provider.
EU-Hosted Infrastructure
All data hosted on Microsoft Azure in Western Europe. No data leaves the EU.
From Estimation to Complete Workflow
Estimation with historical context is the foundation - but it's just the start. Here's what we're building to help your team deliver reliably.
Mobile Experience
Native-feeling voting and session management across all devices.
Performance Improvements
Faster loading, smoother real-time updates, reduced latency.
Estimation Enhancements
Re-estimation flows, session history improvements, and refinements from user feedback.
German Language Support
Full German localisation for DACH teams
Prioritisation
Async, stakeholder-driven priority voting using MinMax, RICE, MoSCoW, and WSJF techniques. Product owners and project managers collect weighted input from the right people — without scheduling a meeting — then make more informed decisions with the data in hand.
