@sheynk Thanks so much for the feedback. Can't wait to hear how integrating teams goes. We're here listening, so let us know what you think!
Been using TARA for a few months now and it's made it much easier to keep the whole team on the same track! the TARA team has been super responsive and has been adding features since we started!
Been using Tara for a couple of months now. After years of struggle with Notion and Jira, Tara seems to work the best.
We're still integrating all the fun new features (woo slack app!), but github/gitlab integration has been great!
@pj_mukh Thank you so much for your support and feedback. We love that Tara is helping you and your team and we can't wait to share some of the stuff we have in the works!
Hey PH fam 👋
I'm Iba, co-founder of Tara AI.
6 months ago, we revealed our first version in beta, with support from the community. Today, we're excited to unveil Tara AI for teams, hunted by @katmanalac.
Tara AI is the simplest Jira alternative, designed for developers and teams moving rapidly.
⚙️ Fast - with minimal setup: This means built-in views once your Git is synced and 1-click sprints. Running agile should be simple.
🎨 Designed for development teams: The focus of the platform is to help teams ship early and often, with docs, tasks & sprints synced to pull requests & commits.
After listening intently to 4,000 teams in our 1.0 beta, here's what's new:
- Teams - run parallel sprints in one workspace across pods or teams.
- Gitlab sync - you can now sync tasks to Gitlab merge requests with a webhook.
- Slack app - receive notifications on what's important.
- Github app - 2 clicks to sync and view stale PRs blocking your sprint.
- Github task sync - connect a branch and view related commits and PRs automatically.
- Revamped home with sprint stats - plus see assigned PRs that need attention
- Docs (requirements) re-design - easy formatting, in-line images and tasks in one view.
- Task effort - toggle between days, hours or points.
- Task commenting - communicate with your team.
- Multiple workspaces - split clients or your org between multiple workspaces.
- Import - import issues from Github, or tasks from Asana and Trello.
And, Tara AI is free for teams and developers. We created Tara to power a paradigm shift in project management, and so our free forever plan has no limits on users, tasks or workspaces.
Looking forward, we're working on functionality for teams that provides visibility and predictability in product development. Features may include automation around sprints, access controls and development analytics. This will be part of our premium plan, and is where the AI comes into play.
A huge thank you to our beta users and teams - it's been incredible to see their work and the products they've built using Tara in their respective fields of emerging tech, healthcare, education and disruptive R&D. We've been humbled by your efforts and spirit of innovation; it's the fuel for our sprints. Thank you!
With gratitude,
Iba, Syed and the Tara team
@katmanalac @ibamasood I love the UI! Are you planning to focus solely on project management, or do you have any plans to incorporate product management, either through integrations such as ProductBoard, or directly in your product? I've used Trello, Jira, and now Clubhouse, and I've always missed having the context of which customer asked for what feature, being able to score them, and seeing *why* we're building a feature instead of just *what* the feature is.
@petrbela We are thinking about how to add user feedback context into the task directly (things like # of requests for the feature, name of customer, etc). Would you expect a different view for this- or would baking it into the task modal itself be intuitive enough?
RN - we've added git data into the task modal as well- so a feedback module would work similarly.
P.S. The plan is to start around task management/PM and work our way to engineering analytics and release plans. Adding modules through integrations or a webhook would be the next way to go. We're heavily investing in our infrastructure in Nov and Dec, with Gitlab as our first webhook integration. Expect more on this front as we tie to other parts of the dev toolchain!
@anum_akhtar Thanks, Anum! And we can't wait to hear what you think. Just holler through the in-app messenger if you hit any bumps or have any suggestions. We'll be there!
@sivagurus Thank you for your continuing support! Can't wait to see what you think about our new features!
Seems like great product!
Do you plan to make Gitlab integration? Why did not you make this one?
@misellany We also use Notion and we chose Tara to replace our Notion task board, primarily because of the Github integration which let us easily see how tasks translate to business value for customers and get a clearer idea of where a project is.
@misellany @sugarsteroni We've kept Tara laser focused on one area: helping dev teams ship early and often. This means all views are centered around the git sync, alongside daily standup and sprint insights. We're also hearing from the 100 or so teams using Tara, alongside Notion, that the focus on sprints and how they tie to Git commits, has been valuable.
P.S. Robin- thanks for chiming in!
I wish the world would move on with the Slack hype already... (or is it just me?)
@ibamasood Tara.ai is a great product, very happy with it's toned-down perfectionism.
@ivan_zenkovich Thanks, Ivan. Tara was born out a of a belief that a piece of software doesn't have to be complicated to deal with complexity. Hop in and let us know what you think!
Congrats guys! Usability and simple flows are much sought after! I've had some trouble using your competitor's app for overview purposes or a simple kanban view that works and entices people. Good luck!
@bogdan_ionita Thank you so much! Indeed, we are very deliberate about keeping our app as simple and intuitive as possible, and we'd love to hear your feedback to see where we can improve!
I have been using Tara for the past 6 months for all of our engineering efforts. It is a simple and no-bullshit gimmicky features product. We had tried Jira before but as a small team, we felt it was too complicated when we want to focus on execution and quick sprints to turn things around. Goodluck to the founders and excited for the slack integration. We have been waiting for it for quite a while now.
@fatimarizwan Hey Fatima! Congrats on the launch of airschool + love seeing your team grow on Tara.
@fatimarizwan Thank you so much for the feedback. It makes my day to hear that we're making it possible for people to focus on what matters. Thank you again and keep us posted on how we can help and what else you'd like to see!
We've been using Tara for a couple of months now. We value the Github integration which let allows to easily see how tasks translate to business value for customers and get a clearer idea of where a project is.
@sugarsteroni Thank you, Robin! It's great to hear that Tara is working for you. Please know that we're listening. If anything comes up or you think of something that would really help you, just ping us in the app and we'll be there pronto!
