Estimate user stories more clearly, faster, and fairer
Separate complexity, effort, and risk and help your team reach transparent estimates faster.
Why estimates often fail
The loudest voice shapes the result
Dominant opinions influence the team and distort the estimate.
Too many and too long discussions
Meetings go in circles and decisions take far too long.
One number mixes too many questions
Effort, technical complexity, and risk all end up in the same estimate.
One number is not enough.
Consonus separates estimates into three dimensions.
Complexity
How challenging is the implementation?
Effort/Time
How much work and time is realistically needed?
Risk
How uncertain or risky is the implementation?
How it works
Prepare stories
Import or create user stories for the next estimation round.
Invite your team
Invite your team without requiring participant accounts.
Vote anonymously
Everyone rates complexity, effort, and risk independently.
Discuss deviations
Spot differences, discuss them clearly, and move toward consensus.
From anonymous voting to clear decisions.
- Anonymous until the right moment. People vote independently, without bias from early voices.
- See live what has already been submitted. Instantly know how many votes are in and where things are stuck.
- Make deviations visible. Spot differences between team members at a glance.
- Structure discussions. Focus conversations on the differences that actually matter.
