Plan sprints from real capacity, not guessed velocity

Most sprint planning starts with a velocity number that nobody fully believes. It is an average of an average, typed into a spreadsheet, and it ignores the on-call rotation, the two people on leave, and the three days lost to a launch. So teams overcommit, carry work over, and lose the ability to forecast.

FeatureFactory derives capacity from your team's actual delivered throughput and adjusts it for the real week ahead. You commit to what the team can finish, and the plan becomes a forecast you can defend to stakeholders. Dig into the underlying signal with developer velocity and engineering metrics.

A capacity number is only half the equation. If the work you pull in is a pile of one-line tickets, estimates are guesses and scope creep is inevitable. Planning breaks down not because the team is slow, but because the units being planned were never buildable in the first place.

FeatureFactory clusters raw product signal into prioritized themes that arrive with scope, non-goals, and testable acceptance criteria - build-ready units a human or a coding agent can pick up without a translation step. Learn the workflow in our sprint planning guide, or see how planning connects to build and measure across the plan stage.

Because each theme declares the outcome it should move, the plan is measurable from the moment it commits - and the next sprint learns from the last one instead of repeating it.
