Hello Product Hunters! I'm super keen to share an important Eververse update with you. We just launched "Initiatives" — your source of truth for ambitious projects. It helps you get everyone on the same page with a shared source of truth and build out your project by: - 📦 Creating a living initiative document - 🙋‍♀️ Inviting your team to contribute - 🔗 Linking important resources - 🏗️ Connecting to your Eververse backlog and roadmap - 🎨 Ideating visually with our canvas - 🖼️ Embedding rich content from over 1900 publishers - ✉️ Sending AI-generated updates direct to inboxes If you're a PM (or you work with a Product team), I'd love to hear your feedback on Eververse Initiatives! Let's build something fantastic together ❤️

Hey Hayden, I'm curious about how Eververse Initiatives compares to other project management platforms. What would you say are its key differentiators? How steep is the learning curve for teams adopting this system? Congrats on the launch!

@kyrylosilin RE: Hey Kyrylo, great question! ProductBoard is the main comparison to draw right now, I was previously using them before switching. Their overall feature set is quite strong, but the lack of realtime collaboration, mediocre editing experience and pricing (which, with AI, is ~40% higher than Eververse) is what made me start looking for an alternative. No shade though, they're still a decent tool and we support importing from them. I've seen some other players pop up recently like Cycle. They look interesting, wasn't stoked that they don't have transparent pricing so I couldn't try their app and from what I could find online, is probably 60% more expensive than Eververse. But at least they're focused on the AI space so that's cool. With Eververse, I'm focused on making an AI-native home for PMs with a few keys differentiators: - Focusing heavily on automation and background agents so PMs can spend less time writing weekly updates and tagging feedback; and more time thinking about the direction of the product. - Introducing strong collaboration tools as I can to help PMs work together as a team in realtime. - Helping Product teams effectively measure the results of their efforts. I'll be focusing a lot on that last one pretty soon 🙏

@kyrylosilin As for the learning curve, I hope it's quite low but I'd love to hear your feedback!

💡 Bright idea
Congratulations Hayden and the team. How does the AI-generated update feature work—can it be tailored to highlight specific milestones?

@pierceschm56969 Thanks Pierce! Essentially, it finds all content that has changed for the initiative since the last update, the uses that to draft an update. Changes include features shipped, links added, subpages created, etc. You can also modify the update after generating it, but tailoring the AI generation is an interesting idea!

"Congrats on the launch, Hayden! Initiatives sounds like a solid tool for keeping projects organized and everyone on the same page. Love the idea of a living document that the whole team can contribute to. The integration with Eververse's backlog and roadmap is a great touch too. Can't wait to try it out with my taem.

This sounds interesting, @haydenbleasel! How does the integration with Eververse backlog work? Could it streamline our current workflows effectively? 🛠️

@elke_qin Thanks Elke! Basically, you can add any product, feature or group from the Eververse backlog which adds all nested features to the initiative and keeps them in sync. Then it renders this as a mini-roadmap for that initiative. I hope it can streamline your current workflow! Give it a go and let me know your thoughts 🙏

The ability to create a "living initiative document" is particularly enticing, especially for PMs juggling multiple projects.

@alexanderscottwilliams Thanks Alexander! It's one of the things I struggled with so I hope it helps others 🙏
