Jellyfish integrates with product roadmap tools for automatic alignment:
Connect your roadmap tool in Jellyfish platform settings for automatic planned vs actual tracking.
When you see under-invested initiatives, discuss in planning — is the team pulled toward unplanned work? When over-invested, check if scope expanded without the Product Owner's knowledge. Use this data to facilitate alignment conversations between product and engineering. Look for patterns in the allocations_by_work_category endpoint to surface recurring misalignment.
