Idea → scoped spec

Bring an idea. Jary's Idea Coach pressure-tests it through six phases, researches the market live with sources you can open, and hands back scoped features with acceptance criteria — linked to GitHub.

The gap

Most ideas die between the doc and the repo.

Strategy lives in Notion. Tickets live in Linear. Code lives in GitHub. The translation between them is done by whoever has the smallest queue.

AI assistants suggest sentences. They don't decide what to build, what to cut, or what to prioritize against tomorrow's release.

The work that actually compounds — phasing, scoping, risk-ranking, sequencing — stays in someone's head until it doesn't.

Not a task manager

A product intelligence layer.

Jary sits beside your tools. It thinks about what to build, why, and in what order — then turns the result into scoped features linked to GitHub, where your team executes.

The Idea Coach

Six phases. No skipping.

Jary won't write a single spec until the idea earns it.

Phase 01 of 06

Pressure-tests the premise.

Asks the questions your senior PM would ask before agreeing to build anything. Surfaces hidden assumptions before they cost a sprint.

The arc

Idea in. Structured product out.

Live research

It reads the market while it reasons.

Mid-conversation, Jary searches the live web — competitor sites, pricing pages, Product Hunt, Hacker News, GitHub. Every claim it makes is grounded in a link you can open.

Memory

It remembers the decisions your past sessions already made.

As you coach ideas, Jary records the decisions, findings, and directions you rejected — each tied to the session it came from. Start a new feature and it surfaces what you already settled, so you don't relitigate it.

Context carried forward. Not context lost.

Memory query

How did we decide pricing for workspaces?

Grounded answer

Usage-based for v1. Per-seat was rejected in the Mar 14 session because 4 of 5 competitors price per-seat and switching cost kept coming up — both recorded as session insights at the time.

Where your team builds

When the PR merges, the spec closes itself.

Connect a repo and link each feature to its GitHub issue — or import the issues you already have. When a PR that references the issue merges, Jary advances the feature to shipped and closes the issue automatically. Your backlog and your code stay in sync.

Human in the loop

The coach does the work. You approve what matters.

One coach, many skills — it drafts specs, scans competitors, and generates acceptance criteria. Routine steps run on their own. Anything that rewrites a feature's scope — splitting it, refining it — stops for your approval first.

Assistants. Not autopilots.
