Turn Specs Into Winning Estimates in Minutes

What is devtimate?

Our tool is NOT another project management tool. It's a specialized solution for the crucial first step of any successful project - accurate time estimation.

Before Project Management and Development

While tools like Jira and Asana are great for managing ongoing projects, devtimate focuses on the critical phase that comes first – estimating project scope and effort. Create accurate estimates before your sprints begin, then export them to your preferred project management tool.

One Tool, One Purpose - Estimation

We do one thing and do it well – estimation. By focusing only on making time estimation easier and more accurate, we help teams set realistic budgets and timelines before committing to project execution.

Start Your Projects with Complete Confidence

Create reliable estimates from your project requirements before diving into development. Get stakeholder approval with confidence, knowing your timelines and costs are realistic, then move forward with your project execution with a clear plan in hand.

AI-Powered Estimation Assistant

Our advanced AI assistant transforms the estimation process through interactive chat capabilities. Simply describe your project requirements and the AI will suggest task breakdowns, provide time estimates, and help create professional client proposals - all through a natural conversation interface that makes estimation feel effortless.

How it works? Three simple steps to transform your documentation into detailed estimates:

1. Upload Documents: Upload your project specifications, client interviews, or SRS documents.
2. AI Analysis: Our AI analyzes your documents and generates an estimate based on your preferences.
3. Review & Adjust: Use the generated estimates as a base and refine them to fit your expertise.

Problems Solved

Common estimation challenges eliminated through AI generation:

• Time-Consuming Manual Process: Traditional estimation methods can take days of manual work to break down requirements into detailed tasks.
• Inconsistent Estimates: Different team members may produce varying estimates for the same tasks, leading to project uncertainties.
• Missed Requirements: Important details can be overlooked during manual review, leading to incomplete estimates.
• Estimation Pressure: Quick turnaround requests for estimates can lead to rushed analysis and inaccurate projections.

Advanced Tracking & Analytics

Sales specialists can track client interactions in real time, seeing exactly which sections are viewed, how long clients spend on each part, and which elements they click on. This gives valuable insight into what matters most to them.

With this information, follow-ups can be more targeted and effective. Instead of guessing, you’ll know what caught their attention, where they hesitated, and what they might need more clarification on. This level of detail helps you communicate more strategically, address client needs at the right moment, and ultimately increase the chances of closing the deal.
