HowsThisGoing

Hey Hunters 👋 After 4 years as a PM, I realised something was broken in how teams track progress. Traditional standup / project management tools like Jira or Linear are great for creating story logs, but unfortunately none of these tools truly allowed you to get answers to really important questions. I got annoyed because I couldn't ask questions like "what did our front-end team work on last week" or "how much of our sales target did we actually achieve in Q4 of this year?" (and more). Which is why I decided to create HowsThisGoing: The AI-powered standup tool that does more than run meetings—it answers your questions. Want to know how fast your team is moving? Just ask. Curious about an engineer's key projects? Simply type a question in Slack. The goal initially was a standup bot with natural language superpowers but I was like... why not go a step further? Why not give it the power to access all your sources of truth? What if the bot could go beyond standups, what if it could become an actual project manager that knows everything about everything you're interested in? Hence, I introduced 🚀 INTEGRATIONS! This game-changing feature allows you to connect to your favorite tools like Github, Linear, Hubspot, Notion etc. and get summaries + actually ask questions about how things are going. Excited to launch this to the PH community! hoping this stops us from annoying teammates with questions our bot can answer 😜 Stop tracking. Start truly understanding. 🖖 cheers!

It looks like something that makes the workflow more "tidy". I do not like "separated questions" and when everything is scattered into 1000 threads where I get lost. Have a good feeling from this tool as it summarises that important highlights. Good luck, Kanishk.

Congrats @kanishkdan for the launch! I loved this tool since the first time I saw the demo. There's a special thing about morning stand-ups with teammates but sometime there's no time or some colleagues are commuting and that's where I can see a huge potential for HTG. Good luck and keep up the good work 🔥😼

@kanishkdan Finally, a bot that saves us from the classic "so... any blockers?" awkward silence🤖 Love how it connects multiple tools for a single source of truth. Does it also analyze sprint patterns to predict potential delays?

Congrats on the launch, @kanishkdan. If would be nice if the bot has context from previous updates. For example, something like, "Kanishk, yesterday you planned to work on X, Y, Z - how's it going today?" That would make the updates feel more personal and connected.

Love how seamless it is to use HowsThisGoing! Been using this for the past 1 month now ✨🚀

I like the summaries less analytical tone! What about google analytics 4 integration? Would be fun to read user metrics with a bit of humour.
