At Echoes, we deeply believe in the power of teams and the impact of collaboration. While teamwork is the heart of what we do, we also recognize the vital importance of delivering projects on time. It's the first question every engineering leader faces: "When will it ship? Will you deliver on time?" .

Delivering value to customers hinges on answering this question with accuracy and confidence, aside from other questions that Echoes also answered as “are we working on the right topics? Is my team doing well? Are people ok?”.

We have been working hard to enhance how we deliver high-value information to you about your ongoing initiatives. We're driven by one central mission: ensuring you have the clarity you need to make informed decisions. Is your team on track? Are their initiatives progressing smoothly? Are there potential concerns you should address?

We will progressively roll out a suite of new initiative features that take engineering management to the next level. Echoes now seamlessly combines everything it knows about your teams' activity, from open issues to historical progress trends, and automatically identify risks. The result? An overview of your engineering organization, based on multiple insights, that help you anticipate what is going on with your teams, in a glimpse, with zero effort on your part. Let’s explain.

A highlight of these updates is our new forecasting engine. This powerful tool calculates an estimated completion date for your initiatives by analyzing the current scope and pace of progress. There are factual, data-driven projections that help you stay ahead.

We didn’t stop there. We've also introduced several initiative-specific insights to keep you informed in real-time. These insights automatically alert you when:

• The estimated completion date of an initiative extends beyond its target.

• Progress on an initiative begins to slow down.

• The scope of an initiative expands more quickly than its completion rate.

These new insights, combined with our existing features, create a comprehensive, aggregated status view of your initiatives. This view lets you quickly understand whether things are going well or if adjustments need to be made—all at a glance.

We're rolling out these powerful features progressively to our user base, and we're confident they'll help you drive even greater success with less effort. Stay tuned as we continue to enhance Echoes to meet the evolving needs of your team and your projects
