Audit sprint metrics directly at the source. Expose shadow work and eliminate capacity manipulation.
Backlog telemetry is frequently distorted by untracked support tasks, off-hour hotfixes, and estimates inflated mid-sprint to cover delays. beam acts as an automated agile auditor that processes standard Jira board data directly at the source. By enforcing a worklog-first audit trail, separating ticket assignees from active contributors, and delivering Agile Reality Analytics, we empower Scrum Masters to recover team health and secure capacity.
beam dynamically transforms its calculation engines and UI layouts to match the exact settings of your target Jira board. The system operates across four core modes:
| Operational Mode | Board Admin Setup | Telemetry & Auditing Behavior |
|---|---|---|
| Mode 1: Classic Scrum | Estimation Metric: Hours Time Tracking: Enabled | Full-fidelity spent time aggregation. Measures actual hours logged in worklogs against committed estimates at sprint start. Issues with missing estimates automatically trigger warnings. |
| Mode 2: Agile Velocity | Estimation Metric: Story Points Time Tracking: Disabled | Suppresses time tracking and worklog evaluations. All dashboards and KPI matrices map strictly to Story Points. Flags completed issues with zero points as "Ghost Issues" to expose capacity manipulation. |
| Mode 3: Scrumban | Estimation Metric: None Time Tracking: Enabled | Bypasses sprint planning estimates. Focuses purely on tracking actual effort (spent hours) and completion counts. Eliminates estimate-related warnings to optimize continuous Scrumban throughput. |
| Mode 4: Basic Flow | Estimation Metric: None Time Tracking: Disabled | Absolute flow metrics cockpit. Suppresses both estimates and spent hours. Tracks completed issues, unplanned items, and project scope creep counts directly from status transitions. |
The analytics interface maps the Real Burndown path against committed sprint scope. The visualization adapts to board configurations to prevent zeroed charts or broken axes:
beam is deployed as an integrated Forge package inside your Native Atlassian Cloud Environment, offering multiple modules for various stakeholders:
A granular view built for Scrum Masters and teams. Renders sprint overview metrics, burndown adaptation curves, and automated coaching recommendations for active sprints.
