- Sprint Planning, Capacity & Resource Planning for Jira is a Jira Cloud app that brings sprint planning and capacity planning together on one screen.
- The app calculates planned capacity for each sprint and compares it against committed work, using the team’s historical velocity as the baseline.
- Sprint load, planned capacity, and past velocity appear side by side, so a team can balance a sprint while filling it instead of discovering an over-commitment mid-sprint.
- Work can be created and estimated from Epics down to subtasks directly in the planning view, with inline editing and assignment.
- The app is Cloud Fortified, participates in Atlassian’s Bug Bounty program, and offers a free Marketplace trial plus free use for small teams.
Common questions about Sprint Planning, Capacity & Resource Planning for Jira, Divim’s app for planning sprints and team capacity on one screen in Jira Cloud. For a step-by-step guide, see our Sprint Planning in Jira and Capacity Planning in Jira resource hubs.
What is Sprint Planning, Capacity & Resource Planning for Jira?
It’s a Jira Cloud app that brings sprint planning and capacity planning together on one screen. You plan team capacity and workload using your past velocity, create and estimate work from Epics down to subtasks, adjust capacity per sprint, and filter by Epic, assignee, status, and priority, without juggling spreadsheets or multiple boards.
How does capacity planning work?
The app calculates planned capacity for each sprint and compares it against the work you’ve committed, using your team’s historical velocity as the baseline. You can set resource allocation per person, account for days off, and adjust capacity sprint by sprint, so you can see at a glance whether a sprint is under- or over-loaded before you commit.
Can I really plan sprints and capacity on one screen?
Yes, that’s the core idea. Sprint load, planned capacity, and past velocity are shown side by side so you can balance the sprint as you fill it, rather than discovering an over-commitment mid-sprint.
Can I create and estimate work without leaving the app?
Yes. You can create and estimate issues from Epics through to subtasks directly in the planning view, edit inline, and assign work to team members on the spot.
How do I focus the board on what matters?
Use the built-in filters to narrow the view by Epic, assignee, status, and priority, so you can plan one workstream, one person’s load, or one priority tier at a time.
Does it use my team’s past velocity?
Yes. Capacity recommendations and the load-versus-capacity comparison are grounded in your team’s real historical velocity rather than guesswork, so plans reflect what your team has actually delivered.
Is my data secure, and where is it stored?
The app is Cloud Fortified and a participant in Atlassian’s Bug Bounty program. Data is transmitted over encrypted connections and processed on Divim’s secured infrastructure in line with the published Applications Privacy Policy. For teams that require all data to remain inside the Atlassian tenant, Divim also offers Forge-based (Runs on Atlassian) planning apps.
What do I need to install it, and how do I get started?
You need a Jira Software Cloud site. Install the app from the Atlassian Marketplace, open the planning screen, select a board, and you can begin planning the active or upcoming sprint against capacity right away.
How much does it cost, is there a free trial?
Yes, there’s a free trial through the Atlassian Marketplace, and the app is free for small teams under Atlassian’s standard small-team pricing. Beyond that it’s a paid Marketplace app billed through your Atlassian account, with pricing that scales by user tier. Check current figures on the Marketplace listing.
