Why this helps
Velocity unknown or guessed, sprint planning commits too much or too little, predictability impossible, surprises derail sprints
- Predictable sprint planning based on data
- Realistic commitments prevent surprises
- Capacity visible to the team
- Improvements measurable sprint to sprint
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Linear and Carbone to Notis
- 2Tell Notis: 'At the end of each sprint, calculate and generate a velocity report showing points completed, stories finished, and metrics'
- 3Notis pulls closed issues, calculates velocity, and generates a report with trend visualization
- 4Set the schedule to match your sprint cycle (e.g., every two weeks Friday EOD) and post to your planning channel
- 5Review velocity trends with your team and adjust sprint planning commitments based on real data
Questions about this workflow
What if velocity varies wildly between sprints?
The report will show that variation. Look for patterns - holidays, big launches, team changes - and adjust expectations accordingly. Variation is data too.
Can velocity reports account for team absences?
Yes. Tell Notis to note absences - 'Flag sprints with vacations, on-call rotations, or training' - so the report explains variations.
How do we use velocity to improve?
Trends over time show if velocity is increasing, decreasing, or stable. This signals if process changes are helping or if new blockers emerged.
