Boards that are lessons
PI planning board with milestones and dependency strings, team breakouts, ROAM, story map, Kanban and roadmap boards, pre-built and facilitator-ready.
Run workshops and PI planning on live boards your participants open by link. Nineteen ready boards, the SAFe canvases, value stream workshops and a co-trainer that drafts and never decides.
Run PI planning from one template, or AI-Native SAFe's one-day PI Outcome Planning: the outcome tree, the PI Outcome Planning Board, team boards, the management review and the confidence vote. Move a card and the iteration changes in Jira or Azure DevOps.
PI planning board with milestones and dependency strings, team breakouts, ROAM, story map, Kanban and roadmap boards, pre-built and facilitator-ready.
Portfolio canvas, SWOT and TOWS, LACE mission, epic hypothesis, Lean business case, feature and enabler canvases, kept as data.
Identify them in a workshop, then map one with numbers pulled from your tracker instead of guessed on a wall.
Participants open the board in a browser. Viewers watch, planners move cards. Nothing to install.
Features, stories, risks and dependencies come from the tracker and go back to it, with a queue you can inspect first.
Drafts PI objectives, suggests ROAM, reviews a board and writes the readout. You approve everything.
Dashboards by team, increment and work level, with the narrative written for you.
Upload iObeya exports, connect Miro, Mural, monday.com or Trello, or drop a CSV. Boards arrive as they are.

Self-host the whole product, or run one small room on ours. Free up to 5 people; paid plans start from the sixth.
Everything a working coach or trainer needs, with unlimited people in the room.
For Agile Release Trains and the academies that launch them. Priced per train, not per person.
Every paid plan starts with a free 14-day trial, then month by month: no card charge today, no yearly commitment to begin. Not satisfied in your first paid month? Money back, claimed by you from Plan & billing, no questions asked. Yearly billing (ten months for twelve) is a switch you make after the first month. Prices in USD, before tax. Portfolios with more than ten trains, on-premises support agreements and public-sector terms: talk to us.
Yes. Practice is free for one hosted room of up to 5 people, and the whole product is open source under Apache-2.0: self-host it with every feature and no limits. From the sixth person, Trainer or Academy.
Trainer and Academy start with a free 14-day trial: you enter a card, nothing is charged, and you can cancel before the trial ends from Plan & billing. After the trial it is month by month. If the first paid month does not convince you, claim the money back yourself from Plan & billing within 30 days of that charge: the charge is refunded, the subscription ends, and your workspace stays on the free plan with everything kept. Yearly billing is a switch you can make after the first month.
They open the board in a browser from a link. On a free room anyone with the link can take part; once you turn authentication on, viewers read and planners move cards, each with a key you send. Nothing to install.
SAFe (Essential, Portfolio, Full), AI-Native SAFe, LeSS, Scrum@Scale, Nexus, Flight Levels and tribe models, as editable operating models. Change the model and the boards and dashboards follow.
Yes. Upload iObeya exports, connect Miro, Mural, monday.com or Trello, or drop a CSV. Boards arrive at their positions and colours, become templates, and map onto the plan only when you say so.
Yes. The Jira app (Atlassian Forge) and the Azure DevOps extension put the boards, value streams and canvases in a project page or hub. Academy includes both.
Because a PI planning room holds a whole train, and the tools priced per user or per room make the room the expensive part. One train is the smallest unit; portfolios with more than ten get a quote.
Both. Project the board on the wall or have everyone open it on their laptops; the facilitator sees every move either way.
Tell us who you are and which plan fits. Practice is ready at once. Trainer and Academy start with a free 14-day trial, month by month, with a money-back guarantee on the first paid month.
