This week in Toolsday, we are focusing on alignment. Engineering teams often juggle feature development, platform work, bugs, and strategic initiatives. Jellyfish helps leaders understand where engineering time is being invested and how that aligns with business goals.
Meet Jellyfish, an engineering management platform that connects work to strategy.
What It Does
Jellyfish analyzes engineering activity across tools and categorizes work into strategic themes. Leaders can see effort distribution, track how teams spend their time, and ensure alignment with organizational goals. It also highlights trends and shifts in investment over time.
Why Agile Pros Care
For Agile organizations, alignment between strategy and execution is essential. Jellyfish supports this by showing whether teams are focused on the right areas and whether investment patterns match strategic priorities. It is useful during PI Planning, quarterly reviews, and leadership discussions.
