Hello Product Hunters! 🚀
We're thrilled to unveil Pacely, your AI-powered development buddy in a fully featured project management tool that is set to revolutionize your software development process.
We've all experienced the slow pace of software development. From ticket creation to closure, countless hours are spent communicating context, locating and understanding relevant code, designing solutions, seeking feedback, implementing, and testing. These manual steps consume a significant amount of time and cognitive effort.
What if we could change that by offloading many of the cognitive tasks to AI? That's where Pacely comes in. Pacely connects to your GitHub repositories, learns your code, and becomes your development companion. It provides step-by-step guidelines for tasks, walks you through code, helps you find, analyze, and fix bugs, offers system design advice, and more. Available on Slack, Pacely reduces time spent asking questions, waiting for answers, onboarding new employees, analyzing problems, and brainstorming. Imagine an engineer who knows everything about the code and is always online.
Below is a list of a few example queries Pacely can help with:
→ There is a bug with monthly plan renewals: some of the customers were charged twice this month. help me find the bug.
→ Walk me through how bitcoin payment is received and processed in the system.
→ Winner determination logic has become very slow. help me investigate.
→ Provide an initial system design for accepting Ethereum. Focus on making it consistant with how we accept bitcoin.
→ Help me write some tests for method 'rank_plays!' in class 'Match'
→ Explain method 'deliver_prizes!' in class 'Match'
Possibilities are endless.
This powerful AI assistant does not come alone, of course, but is built on top of a fully-featured project management platform designed to streamline your workflow and boost productivity. In addition to sprints, estimations, burnup charts, subtasking, filtering, batch updates, epics, labels, GitHub development tracking, and Slack notifications, we've paid attention to details that may not be obvious at first sight but address some long-standing pain points in project management. These include the ability to have multiple backlogs using stacks, enabling sub-stories to inherit the parent's ID with a suffix counter, automatic detection of uncompleted stories upon finishing sprints and giving you options to move them to other stacks, putting the sprint progress chart right in front of your eyes, giving you a bird's eye view of all stacks when you are planning the upcoming sprints, moving completed stories to the bottom of stacks automatically, flexible sprint lifecycle, and much more.
We're beyond excited to share Pacely with the Product Hunt community and would love to hear your feedback.
P.S.
1. Just a heads-up, our AI repository training is still in beta and currently supports only Java, Javascript, Typescript, Ruby, Python, Elixir, and Terraform. We're working hard to boost the AI's efficiency and accuracy, and your feedback is super valuable in this journey. If you've tried it out, we'd really appreciate hearing about your experience!
2. We have ambitious visions for this product. There is still much more to come. Follow us for future updates.

Wow, Pacely looks like a game-changer for software development! 🚀 The AI integration to streamline coding tasks is impressive. Can't wait to try it out.
How can Pacely be leveraged to streamline the development and launch of a new product (i.e. starting a repository)? Any specific use cases or best practices?
@pacelydev@mahsa_abadian Great question Mahsa. Pacely generally comes with 3 main AI functions as of now: (1) generates guideline based of all your existing repos. (2) answering any question base on your current repo, and (3) generic questions. To be honest I can think of cases where all three could be helpful for starting a new package.
with guideline, Pacely tells you where to start from by analyzing how you have managed your current packages and will provide steps to help you do it again. There is a good chance it tells you to document steps so you can do it agian. (like for example for seeding a new microservice package)
With numebr 2) you can use Pacely to have it answer and address your specific question: example being: our current repos are written in ruby, how do we start a nodejs package that talks to rabbitmq like other ruby packages do. and number 3) is simply a gpt chat you have easy access to. Use it only if you do not want AI to look at your code when it populates an answer for you. Hope this answer your question. Feel free to ask any other questions. we are here to help.
There looks like a lot of opportunity to reduce cross team friction. Eg. questions for devs on "how x feature works" or automating documentation. These are often overlooked and eat up a ton of time on both sides of the relationship. If Pacely can solve even 10% of these types of questions/issues the compounding effects of time saved would be huge for any size of company. Any other non-dev/operational efficiencies you could highlight?
Been looking to drop Jira for good. Too much wiring and too many bad practices that imposes on teams. Pacely looks like a promising alternative. I especially like the idea of AI helping new developers navigating the code base. Developer onboarding is huge a resource draining task and this could alleviate some the issues with that process.
