Why do I need Team Assistant?
Building and managing your backlog in Azure DevOps shouldn’t feel like a second job, right? As a product owner, scrum master or team member you spend hours refining work items, estimating effort and debating acceptance criteria (a.k.a. endless meetings) — time better spent shipping value and letting everyone do what they do best!
Team Assistant brings AI right into your Azure DevOps User Interface (UI), so you can:
- go from idea to actionable backlog in seconds;
- ensure every work item meets your standards by default;
- keep consistency across features, user stories, tasks, and more;
- cut down on endless refinement meetings.
