Finished refactoring

In Q1 we focused mostly on refactoring and tests aimed at improving system's stability, performance and overall UX. We successfully accomplished the refactoring so you can now expect a much more stable usage.

We now switch back to implementing new features requested by our users - see our plan for this year below!

Collaboration between multiple users

As one of the results of the refactoring we finally allowed collaboration between multiple users. You can now work on quotes with your colleagues in real time.

Microsoft SSO

You can now log in to Apropo using your Microsoft account.

AI generation of descriptions

You can now generate user stories for your quote components with a single click that will generate them using AI.

Updates to Project timeline feature

The entire Project timeline feature will be massively upgraded to be much more automated and intuitive. It will also allow displaying different sections of your estimate to show how the project will be progressing.

Visual representation of Project timeline

We will also implement charts displaying the Project timeline in a much more convenient way. The charts will include the involvement of your team and the expected billing for each month with ability to break it down by work types (frontend, backend, etc.)

Rich descriptions & User stories

You will be able to add rich descriptions & user stories to your quote components that will be visible all the time between the feature name and its estimation. It will allow you to create advanced and detailed quotes that include complex descriptions and user stories.

Assigning estimators to specific work types

Ability to assign a certain member of your team to estimate a specific work type in your project (e.g. frontend or devops)

Budget tracking (beta)

A fully automated budget tracking, showing comparison of time estimate vs. spent for every item in your quote. The time spent will be pulled automatically from the time logged on the tickets in your Jira. It will also log all change requests and changes to the project scope.

AI estimations (beta)

AI will generate the project breakdown and its approximate estimate based on the project descriptions.

Library groups

Groups in the library will allow you to group components into some specific groups (e.g. payment components, CRUDs, e-commerce components, etc.)

Library sidebar

On the project editor screen, there will be a sidebar on the left side of the screen with ability to hide it. It will display the components that you have in the library and allow you to add components to the projects with a single click, without necessity to search.

Visibility management

Ability to set which elements of your estimate should be visible to your client after sharing and which not.

Budget tracking - upgraded

Upgrades to the budget tracking functionality after beta testing.

AI estimations - upgrades

Upgrades to the AI estimations functionality after beta testing.

Tagging the estimate components

You will be able to assign specific tags to your estimate components (e.g. must-have, nice-have, etc.) and allow your client to change these tags to allow better collaboration and scope clarification with your clients.
