Stop bad requirements before they hit your sprint.
Vague scope, missing acceptance criteria, stories too big to estimate — Vindex catches them automatically the moment a story is written, before they reach sprint planning.
- Catches vague scope, missing acceptance criteria, and oversized stories
- Scores applied on create and update — zero manual effort
- Findings appear inside your issue panel, where work already happens
- Works across Jira, Azure DevOps, Asana, Trello, and Monday
The same five problems
break sprint after sprint.
Every team that loses sprint time to rework recognises this list. Vindex catches all five — automatically, the moment a story is saved, before planning turns them into delivery risk.
- 01
Vague scope
Stories that read fine until someone has to build them.
- 02
Missing acceptance criteria
No one can say when the work is actually done.
- 03
Stories too big to estimate
Work that won't fit in a sprint, hiding inside a single ticket.
- 04
Hidden dependencies
Blockers that only surface mid-sprint, once it's too late to plan around them.
- 05
Untestable outcomes
Goals stated so loosely that no test can prove the story shipped.
Scores land where your team already works.
The moment a story is saved, Vindex scores it and posts the findings back inside your issue panel. No context switching, no new tab, no extra tools to learn.
- Latency
- Seconds after save
- Where it lives
- Inside the issue panel
- Workflow change
- None
Up and running in minutes, not weeks.
- Step 01
Connect your tool
Add Vindex to Jira, Azure DevOps, Asana, Trello, or Monday in under two minutes.
- Step 02
Register your instance
Link your workspace through the Vindex portal. One-time setup, no ongoing maintenance.
- Step 03
Stop bad stories at the gate
Every new or updated story is scored automatically. Findings appear in your issue panel before sprint planning starts.
Less rework. More predictable sprints.
Catching requirements problems before planning means fewer mid-sprint surprises, fewer carry-overs, and fewer hours spent re-scoping work the team already started.
- 01
One quality bar across every squad
Automated, unbiased scoring gives every team the same definition of a story that's ready — without bottlenecking on a single reviewer.
- 02
Findings you can act on
Each score comes with specific recommendations: what's missing, what's vague, what to clarify. Not just a number.
- 03
A shared read for product and engineering
Vindex gives both sides the same language for what makes a story ready — long before refinement starts.
Six reasons a story fails. Vindex checks all of them.
Every score is built on INVEST — the industry standard for user story quality. Each dimension maps to a real failure mode the team already recognises.
Read the full scoring methodology- I
- Independent
- Deliverable in any order, without hard dependencies on other work.
- N
- Negotiable
- A conversation starter, not a contract — details remain open.
- V
- Valuable
- Delivers clear, meaningful value to the user or the business.
- E
- Estimable
- Enough context and clarity for the team to confidently size the work.
- S
- Small
- Fits within a sprint. Larger work is broken into focused, deliverable slices.
- T
- Testable
- Clear acceptance criteria — the team knows exactly when done means done.
