Release notes ↗
Strategy · OKRs, Tasks, PPM
User groups for ownership across OKRs, tasks, and PPM
Assign a named group as owner across OKRs, tasks, and PPM — with privilege controls and an impact summary before any change applies.
Projects · Portfolio Management
Portfolio-level resource management
A new People tab on portfolios combines member access, project allocation, and a Capacity Workbench — flagging over-committed members above 95% utilisation.
Strategy · OKR Management
Flexible check-in type for key results
