Sprint Buddy
Jira templates and automated sprint reports
Jira holds the tickets. It does not write the sprint report, the capacity plan or the business case. These templates fill that gap, and Sprint Buddy connects to your Jira board so the recurring reporting happens on its own.
Templates that fit a Jira workflow
Each template is built around fields Jira already gives you — status, story points, assignee, sprint and flags — so filling it in is a matter of syncing rather than retyping.
- Sprint planning and capacity worksheet
- Backlog grooming sheet with priority scoring
- Status report and stakeholder update
- Retrospective and RAID log
Connect Jira once
Authorise Sprint Buddy with Atlassian OAuth 2.0 — no API tokens to copy or store. Pick your board and the first sync pulls issues, sprints, story points and assignees, keeping active sprint, future sprints and backlog apart.
- Atlassian OAuth 2.0 (3LO), tokens encrypted at rest
- Board-based or board-less sync via the Jira Search API
- Refined stories can be pushed back into Jira
The report writes itself
After each sync, Sprint Buddy generates the sprint summary, flags blocked and stalled issues, and produces a report stakeholders can read without opening Jira. Backlog export to Excel is one click.
FAQ
- Does this replace Jira dashboards?
- It complements them. Dashboards show charts to people who open Jira; Sprint Buddy writes the narrative for everyone who does not.
- Do I need Jira admin rights?
- No. The OAuth connection uses your own Jira permissions plus offline access so later syncs can run.
- Which Jira products are supported?
- Jira Cloud, with both team-managed and company-managed projects that expose a board or a project key.
