Plan your milestones. See delays coming.
Roadmap, board, Gantt and delivery metrics in one tool. Freeze your baseline plan and measure, milestone by milestone, what has fallen behind. Start free, no credit card required.
Plan at a glance
Your milestones on a timeline, grouped by team or theme. Drag them with the mouse: the dates follow.
Getting started
- Create your first milestone: its lane is created at the same time.
- Set a start and an end, then drag the bar to adjust the dates.
- Add lanes (Product, Infra, Design…) to organise the plan.
What you get
- One colour per status: in progress, done, upcoming, at risk.
- Dates changed with one gesture, no form.
- A ghost bar under each milestone shows where it was planned.
Organise the week’s work
Your tasks in columns, from “to do” to “done”. The team’s daily board.
Getting started
- Open a milestone and add its tasks.
- Define your columns in the organisation settings.
- Drag cards from one column to the next.
What you get
- A flow that fits your team, with as many columns as you need.
- The same order as on the roadmap.
- The assignee and the tags visible on every card.
Keep the big picture, down to the detail
Lanes, milestones, tasks and subtasks in a single tree, to unfold or fold.
Getting started
- Split a task into subtasks from its panel.
- Click an item to unfold or fold its content.
What you get
- You see at once what depends on what.
- Everything is sorted by date, to read the plan in order.
See the dependencies
Every task on the time axis: a bar when both dates are known, a diamond when there is only one.
Getting started
- Give your tasks dates: a start, an end, or just one of the two.
- Mark that one task must come before another.
What you get
- An arrow links related tasks, and changes colour when the dates do not hold.
- Tasks without a date stay visible, at the bottom of the list.
Measure delays, milestone by milestone
Progress, the team’s pace, what is blocked, and the comparison with your baseline plan.
Getting started
- Take a snapshot of your roadmap: the first one becomes your baseline.
- Select a milestone to see its progress and its projected end date.
- Change the baseline when the plan is renegotiated.
What you get
- The exact gap between the original plan and today, for every milestone.
- The list of what is blocked right now.
- A reliable history: a snapshot is never edited afterwards.
What Jalon really measures
Frozen baseline plan
Name, lane id and lane name, status, start, end, progress: everything is recorded on the day of the snapshot and never moves again.
Gaps computed per milestone
Start, end, progress, status, lane. Every gap has a sign, to tell a delay from a lead.
Trend over time
The trend is read over the last 12 snapshots, that is 11 intervals between them.
Late and drifting kept apart
What is still late and what was delivered late are counted separately: they never cancel each other out.
Every figure in this section is checked by a test against the server code.
Measure your delivery with your real numbers
Connect GitLab or GitHub: the four DORA metrics, ticket flow and the delivery report, computed from your forge.
Getting started
- Connect your forge with a token, from the Organisation page.
- Choose the projects to follow and link their tickets to your tasks.
- The figures refresh with every collection.
What you get
- Deployment frequency, lead time for changes, change failure rate, time to restore service.
- The cumulative ticket flow and the time spent at each stage.
- What was planned, against what was shipped.
Find out who did what
The team’s log: creations, completed tasks, state changes, assignments, in order.
Getting started
- No setup: the log starts with your organisation.
- Open the Activity screen: yesterday, then the current week.
What you get
- A factual history, without interpretation.
- Every screen says since when its data exists.
