Beautiful roadmaps that actually stay in sync with execution. Taskstreamer bridges the gap between strategy and Jira—automatically.
The key differences that matter for your planning workflow
Where the differences really show up in your daily workflow
Aha! connects to Jira via a two-way sync that must be configured and maintained. Features in Aha! can push to Jira, and status can sync back. But it's two separate systems—drift happens, conflicts occur, and someone must reconcile differences.
Taskstreamer is a Jira plugin—it reads directly from your Jira data. No sync to configure, no conflicts to resolve, no drift to manage. Your roadmap is always showing the exact current state of your Jira issues because it's reading them live.
Dates in Aha! are estimates you enter manually. The tool doesn't know your team's capacity or current workload. You set Q2 for a feature based on gut feel—then hope engineering can actually deliver it. When priorities shift, you manually adjust dates.
Every date is calculated by the sequencing engine based on team capacity, dependencies, and priorities. When you ask "when will feature X ship?", the answer accounts for everything ahead of it in the queue and your team's actual bandwidth.
When leadership reprioritizes, you manually move features on the roadmap, update dates, and hope you've thought through all the downstream impacts. Then you update Jira to match. Repeat every time something changes.
Drag a feature to a new priority position. The entire roadmap recalculates in under a second—dependencies cascade, capacity constraints apply, and every downstream date adjusts automatically. No manual work required.
Aha! excels at product management: idea portals for customer feedback, persona definitions, competitor tracking, custom scoring models for prioritization, and gorgeous presentation-ready roadmaps. It's a complete PM toolkit.
Taskstreamer focuses on execution planning. We have strategy/OKR tracking, but we don't do idea portals, persona management, or competitor analysis. Our strength is turning your prioritized backlog into a realistic, auto-updating roadmap.
