Hi all !
I was tired of using JIRA, Confluence and co so I built AJIR as a better alternative to manage product building.
The platform is built around 3 main object types: Product, Feature and Task. The first two are here to stay and organized as tree. You can document each of the Products and Features, so your documentation is always organized following the exact same hierarchy (that you can change anytime, by the way).
Tasks are here to come and go as they are executed.
Around these 3 main objects, you will find different features to track time, time sheet automatically, build roadmaps, track budget consumption, and more.
You can track commits, tags as well (Github integration).
AJIR also has an API that you can use to track bugs, user feedbacks and help request. AJIR's API can also be used to track deployments of your apps/products across different environments.
Looking for users and feedbacks ! It's free.
I plan to improve AJIR of course, but also to build better documentation on how to use it, as well as a few Looms to present different features and use cases.

- throwaway_3850 4y agoYou mind telling why you think Jira is aweful and AJIR does better?
- Jwarder 4y agoThe Try For Free link is a bit awkward. It points to a page that just says Jobs, that in turn just points to a empty black page. I assume the intention is to use the Login link. If so then I think that should be at the forefront instead of the empty pages.
- liow4s 4y agoYes, sorry for the rough onboarding. Yes, the intention is to use the login link. Once your logged in, you can start using all of AJIR's features for free. Please refer to the first blog articles explaining the app's concept and some of its features: https://www.ajir.app/blog/ajir-in-a-nutshell/ https://www.ajir.app/blog/ajir-in-a-nutshell/ Like I said in the initial post, I will improve the doc and try to make Looms.
- yodon 4y agoIf it were possible to go back in time, I'd advise testing that the "get started" button works before posting this. Given that it's already posted to HN, fixing that button so it shows a page containing something other than the words "jobs" and "home", and/or so the links under those words do something other that point back to the same page, should probably be top priority.
- liow4s 4y agoHello and thank you for your message. What didn't work with the get started button ? Yes, I didn't work on onboarding yet. You actually have to login to start using the app. I will fix the onboarding to avoid this kind of bad first impression, sorry.
- yodon 4y agoThe get started button successfully redirects to another page, but the page it directs to is not useful because all it contains are apparently self-referential links to jobs and home. There is no way to actually "get started"
- throwaway173738 4y agoWhat if two or more products share the same feature?
- liow4s 4y agoA Feature belongs to 1 Product only but Features can 'use' other Features across the tree, so you can track dependencies easily. By the way, you can track dependencies at 2 levels: Features, like described above, and Tasks. Then, your dependencies are display in both ways (uses, used by) Was my answer clear ? Happy to help.
