Predicted Ship Dates

Platform Only

Ship date predictions are calculated by the Jellyfish Capacity Planner using velocity history, remaining scope, and team availability. They update automatically as scope changes.

Access predictions in the Capacity Planner module of the Jellyfish platform, or on the Delivery Forecast page in this tool.

As a Scrum Master, you influence many of these metrics through ceremony quality and process health. Cycle time improves when reviews are timely. Deployment frequency rises when release processes are streamlined.

Help your Product Owner interpret these numbers in context. A spike in bugs after a large release is different from a steady upward trend. A low completion rate during onboarding weeks tells a different story than one during a stable sprint.
