Teams, Sprints & PIs
Almost every number in AgileNotes.AI is scoped to a team, a Program Increment (PI), and a sprint (Scrum) or iteration / flow window (Kanban). The three header selectors set that scope.
Switching teams
Click the team selector in the header to jump between teams. Each team carries its own color (you’ll see it as a dot beside the name), its framework, its members, and its data. In the Demo you can switch between Dragons, Tigers, and Juggernauts.
Scrum vs Kanban
Pick a team’s framework — Scrum, Kanban or XP — in its settings. It changes the vocabulary, the metrics and the events you capture notes against throughout the app. XP works like Scrum, with its own events: Planning, Quarterly, Weekly and Daily.
| Scrum / XP (Dragons, Tigers) | Kanban (Juggernauts) | |
|---|---|---|
| Time box | Sprint | Flow window (iteration) |
| Unfinished work | Rolls over to the next sprint when you close the sprint | Moves into the next iteration the moment you close the current one, so you can review it before you press Start |
| Headline metrics | Velocity, predictability, burndown | Throughput, cycle time, lead time, flow efficiency, aging WIP |
Wherever a view differs by framework, this manual notes it. If you’re a Scrum team, you can skip the Kanban-only callouts and vice-versa.
PI Planning
If your teams plan in Program Increments, turn on PI Planning in Organization → General. Every team then gets the PI selector, PI-tagged notes and PI capacity planning, whatever its framework. A team that doesn’t plan in PIs can opt out in its own settings.
PIs and sprints
- The PI selector chooses the Program Increment — a quarter-sized planning horizon made up of several sprints/iterations.
- The sprint / iteration selector chooses the time box within that PI.
- If your team enters work manually, you start and close each sprint from the WIP view — closing a sprint rolls unfinished tickets forward. See Tracking Work (WIP).
Many views also offer a scope toggle (for example Sprint View vs PI View) so you can look at just the current iteration or the whole increment without changing the header. You’ll meet those toggles on the Statistics, Charts, and Patterns views.
With scope set, the Dashboard is the natural place to start.
