In this product demo, the narrator introduces Jellyfish's Scenario Planner, a web‑based tool designed for engineering leaders to model and mitigate delivery risk. The Planner visualizes activity on a deliverable, showing inconsistent but upward‑trending engineering effort. Users can set a provisional target date and view a projection graph that predicts delivery timelines. The core of the tool consists of three adjustable vectors—Developers (number of engineers assigned), Average Attention (percentage of each engineer’s time devoted to the deliverable), and Deliverable Scope (remaining story points or issues). By manipulating these levers, leaders can explore how changes affect the projected delivery date. The video concludes with links to a browser‑based product tour, a feature‑launch blog, and the Jellyfish website for further exploration.

Introducing Jellyfish's Scenario Planner. It's a tool that empowers leaders to model the attribution of developers, developer attention, and deliverable scope in order to understand the impact on their engineering teams and delivery speed. Let's take a look. You can see a summary of the activity associated with this deliverable. At a glance, engineering effort attributed towards this deliverable has been inconsistent, but it's trending upwards. Let's use the Scenario Planner to see what levers we can pull to ensure this deliverable hits its target date. This is the Scenario Planner. It allows us to model different actions to understand their impact on the delivery timeline. We can set a provisional target date and see how that works in conjunction with our projection graph below. We have 3 vectors to manipulate when trying to improve delivery projections: Developers—the number of developers working on the deliverable. Average Attention—on average, how much of each developer's time is contributing to the deliverable. And Deliverable Scope—the remaining issues or story points to be completed for the deliverable.
