I built an AI project manager for dev teams because Jira was too much and Trello was too little โ€” meet Rahnuma.io ๐Ÿš€

After months of building in public, Rahnuma.io is live on Product Hunt today! ๐ŸŽ‰

The problem

Every dev team I've worked with ends up in the same trap: Jira is too heavy and slows everyone down with ceremony, while Trello/Notion are too light and can't actually tell you if your sprint is on track. Nobody had a tool that combined real project management with AI that actually understands developer workflows.

So I built one.

What is Rahnuma.io?

Rahnuma.io is an AI-powered DevOps platform that sits where project management meets your actual engineering workflow:

  • ๐Ÿง  AI task generation โ€” describe a feature in plain English, get a structured task with subtasks
  • ๐Ÿ“Š Deadline risk forecasting โ€” a live risk score (0โ€“100) built from time risk, blockers, and completion rate, so you know a sprint is in trouble before it blows up
  • ๐Ÿ—‚๏ธ Kanban + sprints โ€” drag-and-drop boards, WIP limits, burndown charts, story points
  • ๐Ÿค– AI sprint retros โ€” auto-generated "what went well / what didn't / action items"
  • ๐Ÿ”— GitHub & Bitbucket integration โ€” see commits next to the tasks they belong to
  • ๐Ÿ“ˆ Reports that don't require a translator โ€” including an "Explain to My Boss" button that turns your sprint into a plain-English executive summary
  • ๐Ÿ”” Slack notifications for task creation, assignment, and comments
  • ๐Ÿงพ Client portals โ€” shareable, printable progress reports for non-technical stakeholders

Why it's different

Most "AI project management" tools just bolt a chatbot onto a Trello clone. Rahnuma.io's AI is wired directly into the data model โ€” it knows your sprint history, your velocity, your blockers โ€” so the forecasts and summaries are grounded in your actual project state, not a generic prompt.

Tech under the hood

Next.js 15 (Turbopack) ยท TypeScript ยท Prisma + PostgreSQL ยท Clerk auth ยท Polar billing ยท Redis ยท xAI Grok with Groq fallback for AI ยท Server-Sent Events for realtime sync.

Try it

It's free to start, no credit card required. I'd love your feedback โ€” especially from anyone who's felt the Jira-is-too-much / Trello-is-too-little pain.

Happy to answer any questions about the build, the AI routing, or the architecture in the comments!
