Kendis is a planning and tracking platform for scaled agile teams. It runs PI Planning, dependency management, OKRs, roadmaps and risk management on top of Jira and Azure DevOps, with two-way sync, so teams keep working in the tools they already use.

Kendis AI (Charlie) drafts PI objectives, summarises planning health and writes the End of Increment Report. It is available on ORG Views plans. Meet Charlie.

Seamless Integration from Strategy to Execution

Q: Does Kendis work with Jira and Azure DevOps?

Yes. Kendis syncs both ways with Jira Cloud, Jira Data Center and Azure DevOps, including Microsoft TFS. Features, stories, iterations and dependency links stay in your tool, and Kendis adds the cross-team planning layer.

Q: Is Kendis only for SAFe?

No. Kendis supports SAFe at team, program, solution and portfolio level, and also LeSS, Scrum@Scale, Scrum of Scrums and the Spotify model, or your own way of scaling.

Q: How much does Kendis cost?

Premium Cloud is $14 per user per month billed annually, or $16 billed monthly, and you license only the people who plan. See the pricing page for Enterprise Pro and ORG Views.

Q: Is there a free trial?

Yes. Kendis is free for six months with no credit card, long enough to plan and track two full PIs with your real backlog. Start your free trial.

Q: Where is my data hosted?

You choose at signup: the European Cloud on OVHcloud in Frankfurt, Germany, or the Global Cloud on AWS in the United States.

Best known for PI Planning and scaled agile (SAFe), Kendis now helps organizations go further by tracking delivery, managing Projects and Products, and visualizing their entire journey with powerful Roadmaps, synced with Jira and Azure DevOps.
