January 21, 2024 Launching SoftEstimator.AI - How I came up with a niche idea working at a BigTech?

I work at a well-established technology company, actually a century old. During my day at the project, I noticed that there is currently a recurring need in the software development and consultancy industry that is not standardized by many companies. I'm talking about the cycle of generating estimates, both the process of estimating hours as in a software factory process, and justifying based on the User Story that will be developed.

This gave me the idea of standardizing this process, generating a kind of standardized development hours calculator. Furthermore, the following question came to mind: how AI could help in this process. This is how SoftEstimator.AI came about, and I'm launching it today.

Manage the E2E Estimation Cycle of your software development
Have detailed, grounded estimates, automatically calculated, with scale and standardization.

Generate estimations based on artificial intelligence: Have each item in your User Story estimated automatically and customizably, based on the technology you use for development by AI.

Standardize your estimations
Create groupings of estimations by projects/squads. Add items to estimations, performing dynamic calculations of estimated hours. Based on that data, generate a standardized PDF document, with useful information from the estimated User Story and the visual identity of your company. Have a pre-registered list of the main components used and tasks to be considered in an estimate, controlling the uniformity, assertiveness and creating a catalog of hours by type of development.

Justify the hours with greater detail and assertiveness supported by AI
Create more grounded, technically detailed and assertive justifications. Do all this quickly based on drafts generated by artificial intelligence. Get technical and functional insights chating with AI about the details of the User Story provided.

Get data-driven insights with dynamic reports and detail-analysis
Have operational and financial reports on hand that will make it easier to control the flow of estimations. Check reasons for discrepancies between estimated x realized hours, realtime revenue predictability based on man-hours, average estimate cycle time and much more...

Version, control component approval, upload files, AI Fine-Tune...
Create versions of your estimation with just one click, creating a reliable processing history, record the approval of estimated hours for pre-registered components and tasks including an acceptance file, concentrate file uploads linked to the estimate, make AI-generated estimations even more specific with AI Fine-Tune
