FeatSmith — Feature Writing Co-Pilot

Engineers have had linters for years: write code that breaks the team's conventions and a tool flags it before a human ever reviews it. The people who write features, stories and specs get… a style guide nobody reads, and a reviewer who sends the ticket back. FeatSmith is that missing tool. It reads your team's writing rules once, then drafts rule-compliant fields on the issue you're working on — and checks the ones you've already written, flagging exactly which rule each one breaks. Right in a side panel next to your tracker. No copy-paste, no separate app. Built for product managers, product owners, and business analysts — the people who turn ideas into features, user stories, and specs to a standard — plus the program managers, engineering leads, and scrum masters who work alongside them. HOW IT WORKS Capture your rules once. Upload your style or compliance guide (PDF, Word, Markdown, spreadsheet, or slides) and FeatSmith extracts it into a reusable rule profile — tone, terminology, formatting, required sections, and compliance constraints. Prefer to start fast? Clone a built-in template or write a few rules by hand. Open an issue. FeatSmith detects the issue you're viewing on a supported tracker and opens a side panel right next to it. Draft or check. Draft a Title, Description, Release Notes, Benefit Hypothesis, and Acceptance Criteria (in your required format, e.g. Gherkin) with one click — or point it at a ticket you've already written and get an instant compliance check that lists every rule it breaks, in plain language. Review and apply. Compare variants per field, see inline compliance flags, then accept and apply the result straight back to the issue with correct formatting — one field, or all of them at once. WHY TEAMS USE IT Two jobs, one panel — it writes new fields AND checks existing ones against your rules, so quality is enforced whether the ticket was AI-drafted or typed by hand. Your rules, not generic AI — unlike a general chatbot, FeatSmith enforces your specific terminology, structure, and compliance requirements, and tells you the moment a draft violates one. Free, instant compliance checks — the rule check runs in your browser. It's unlimited, works offline, and your ticket content never leaves your device. Consistency at scale — every writer's output matches the house style automatically, so newer team members write like your best ones and reviews get shorter. Speed during crunch — draft a dozen well-formed tickets in the time it used to take to write one. Works where you work — a side panel on top of your tracker, not another tab to switch to. SUPPORTED TRACKERS FeatSmith works with the issue tracker your team already uses — popular ones like Jira, Linear, and GitHub, plus several others — and you can connect more than one at a time, with OAuth or an API token. Your tracker credentials stay on your device; the extension talks to each tracker directly, so your tokens never reach our servers. ACCOUNT & PLANS Sign-in is required (email one-time code or Google). Compliance checks that run locally are unlimited on every plan. The Free tier includes 10 AI generations (drafting and AI deep-checks); Pro adds a large monthly allowance (fair use) and lets you invite teammates. PRIVACY Your issue-tracker tokens live only on your device, and the local compliance check never sends your ticket content anywhere. When you use AI drafting, FeatSmith processes that content to provide the service and improve quality; our privacy policy explains exactly what is stored, for how long, and how to request deletion. WHO IT'S FOR Product managers — drafting and standardizing features, epics, and user stories. Product owners — turning backlog items into clear, compliant, ready-to-build tickets. Business analysts — writing precise requirements, acceptance criteria, and specs. Also useful for program/project managers, engineering leads, scrum masters, and technical writers. If you write acceptance criteria, benefit hypotheses, release notes, or feature descriptions to a house style, FeatSmith drafts them and checks them for you — on-brand and rule-compliant, every time.
