Eververse Initiatives - Your source of truth for ambitious projects

@kyrylosilin RE: Hey Kyrylo, great question! ProductBoard is the main comparison to draw right now, I was previously using them before switching. Their overall feature set is quite strong, but the lack of realtime collaboration, mediocre editing experience and pricing (which, with AI, is ~40% higher than Eververse) is what made me start looking for an alternative. No shade though, they're still a decent tool and we support importing from them. I've seen some other players pop up recently like Cycle. They look interesting, wasn't stoked that they don't have transparent pricing so I couldn't try their app and from what I could find online, is probably 60% more expensive than Eververse. But at least they're focused on the AI space so that's cool. With Eververse, I'm focused on making an AI-native home for PMs with a few keys differentiators: - Focusing heavily on automation and background agents so PMs can spend less time writing weekly updates and tagging feedback; and more time thinking about the direction of the product. - Introducing strong collaboration tools as I can to help PMs work together as a team in realtime. - Helping Product teams effectively measure the results of their efforts. I'll be focusing a lot on that last one pretty soon 🙏

@kyrylosilin As for the learning curve, I hope it's quite low but I'd love to hear your feedback!

@star_boat Thanks! Added NovelPen to my list of things to check out 🙏

@dansiepen Thanks mate 🙏

@pierceschm56969 Thanks Pierce! Essentially, it finds all content that has changed for the initiative since the last update, the uses that to draft an update. Changes include features shipped, links added, subpages created, etc. You can also modify the update after generating it, but tailoring the AI generation is an interesting idea!

@mitia awesome! Let me know on Intercom if you need any help 🙏

@marygarcia Thanks Mary, keen to hear your thoughts after using it! If you need any help while trying it out, hit me up on Intercom and we can chat ✌️

@elke_qin Thanks Elke! Basically, you can add any product, feature or group from the Eververse backlog which adds all nested features to the initiative and keeps them in sync. Then it renders this as a mini-roadmap for that initiative. I hope it can streamline your current workflow! Give it a go and let me know your thoughts 🙏

@isabellarosewilson Thanks Isabella! Got a LOT planned for the future of Initiatives but let me know once you've tried it out 🙏

@alexanderscottwilliams Thanks Alexander! It's one of the things I struggled with so I hope it helps others 🙏

@dror_wayne Hey Dror, great questions! I'm designing Eververse so you can bring everyone on - Engineering, Marketing, Sales, etc. This is reflected in the pricing and roles - you only pay for "editors" (your Product team) and everyone else (members i.e. view-only) are free. In terms of sync, you can bidirectionally sync Eververse features with GitHub Issues, Jira Tickets and Linear Tickets. So you can use Eververse to set the direction of your product, then push to those platforms and let Engineering execute there!

@zulkarnaim Thanks Zulkar! Let me know how you go 🙏

@userinsite Thanks Negou! Appreciate you digging in to the Pricing page 🙏

@lemuel_albotra1 Thanks Lemuel! Initiatives integrates with your backlog primarily — you can connect Products, Features and Groups to the initiative for seamless tracking of delivery at a higher level. Additionally, when you generate an Initiative Update with AI, it finds all content that has changed for the initiative since the last update, the uses that to draft an update. Changes include features shipped, links added, subpages created, etc. I'm designing Initiatives specifically to reduce the amount of effort needed for PMs to create a single source of truth and stay up to date on changes to the initiative. Additionally, focusing on the time it takes to craft an update from this and keep stakeholders in the loop.

@ranjanpai__ Thanks Ranjan!

@ema_elisi Thanks Ema! Hope it makes your life easier. Let me know how you go 🙏
