Built for the way you actually ship now.
Every feature in TackPile exists to remove a step that small AI-native teams currently do by hand or skip entirely. No sprint ceremonies. No ticket grooming theater. Just the loop.
Pile in, refine out.
Frictionless capture and AI rewriting are the two halves of the same loop. We obsess over both.
- One-line idea capture
A sentence and a tag is enough. Bulk-paste from a meeting works. The system fills in the structure later.
- AI story refinement
Each idea becomes a user story with AC, scoped to your stack and terminology. Edit before approving.
- Vision & rules vault
Product vision, glossary, and agent guardrails. Written once, injected into every refinement and every MCP read.
- Approval workflow
Stories don't reach the agent until a human approves. One click to mark Ready for AI.
States your team uses, not someone else's.
Real software doesn't flow To Do → In Progress → Done. Customize the column set and the agent learns it.
- Custom states & transitions
Define your own: Backlog, Ready for AI, In Progress, In Dev, Soaking, In Prod, Reverted. The agent picks them up over MCP.
- Drag-to-prioritize
Top of Ready for AI is whatever the agent picks up next. No story points, no shadow priorities.
- Per-product boards
Run multiple products in one workspace, each with its own vision, rules, and column set.
- Item threads
A focused thread on each item where humans and the agent on it can talk. Replies update the work.
MCP-native. No glue code.
TackPile speaks Model Context Protocol natively. Any MCP-aware agent (Claude Code, Cursor, your own) connects in one step.
- MCP server
List, read, claim, transition, and comment on items. Your agent reads the vision and rules in the same call.
- Webhooks
Every transition fires a webhook. Wire Slack, status pages, ops dashboards in minutes.
- Git provider links
Items link to PRs and commits across GitHub. Status updates flow back to the board automatically.
- API + tokens
Scoped API tokens for scripts and CI. Audit trail of every read and transition.
Boring where it counts.
AI-native doesn't mean reckless. The plumbing is conventional and observable so the AI part can be the interesting part.
- Audit log
Every state change, every refinement, and every agent action gets logged with actor, time, and diff.
- Roles & permissions
Owner, Editor, Viewer, Agent. Scope what each role and each token can do.
- Export & ownership
Your data is yours. CSV / JSON export at any time. No lock-in by design.
- Reliable email
Approvals, mentions, and waitlist confirmations all go through Resend with deliverability monitored.
What's coming next.
Honest timeline. We'll move things around based on what beta teams need.
Capture, refine, approve, prioritize, agent execution over MCP, live webhooks. The whole flow on day one.
Multiple agents working in parallel without colliding. Soft locks, claim semantics, conflict notifications.
Talk to the model on the item without leaving TackPile. Replies thread back into the work.
For teams that want the agent to reach TackPile without going through our SaaS. Same protocol.
For Studio & Enterprise plans. Okta, Google Workspace, Microsoft Entra.
From Jira, Linear, Azure DevOps. Bring your messy backlog over and let TackPile clean it up.
