A few months ago I was running a sprint for a small team, and on day 9 of a 10-day sprint I found out — almost by accident, scrolling through Jira tickets at 11pm — that we were nowhere close to done. Three tasks were silently blocked, scope had crept in from two "quick" client requests, and nobody had flagged any of it because nobody had time to.
That night is basically why Rahnuma.io exists.
The actual problem
It wasn't that we lacked a project management tool. We had Jira. The problem was that Jira tells you what state things are in, not whether you're in trouble. You have to manually piece together velocity, blockers, and scope changes yourself — and by the time you do, the sprint is already over.
I tried lighter tools too — Trello, Notion boards. Same issue from the other direction: nice and simple, but zero intelligence. No risk signal, no forecasting, nothing that does the thinking for you.
So every team I worked with ended up doing the same thing: a spreadsheet, a gut feeling, and a Friday afternoon "are we actually going to make it?" Slack message.
What I actually wanted
Something that would have told me on day 5, not day 9:
- "Your completion rate vs. time elapsed means this sprint is at risk."
- "These 2 tasks have been blocked for 3 days and nobody's touched them."
- "Scope grew 20% after sprint start — here's what got added."
Not a dashboard I have to remember to check. A system that watches the data and surfaces the problem before I have to go looking for it.
So I built it
Rahnuma.io's deadline risk forecasting is a direct answer to that exact night: a composite risk score built from time risk, blocker risk, and completion rate, computed continuously — not something you generate manually after the damage is done. Pair that with AI-generated sprint retros, an AI assistant that has actual project context, and GitHub integration so commits and tasks live together, and it's the tool I wish I'd had on day 5 of that sprint.
It's live now, free to start, no credit card required. If you've had your own "day 9 at 11pm" moment, I'd love to hear about it in the comments — and if Rahnuma.io would've helped, even better.
