Features · Max & AI workflows

AI that drafts the busywork — your team approves it

Max, your built-in assistant, drafts estimates, summaries, updates, and release notes — and a toolbox of supervised tools handles the rest. Every artifact lands as a reviewable draft. Nothing ships on its own.

Max assistant

Drafts in seconds, decisions stay yours

Ask Max to draft a cost estimate, condense a long thread to its decisions, or write a status update — and it lands inside the same review-and-history trail your team already uses. Turn it off entirely whenever you choose.

A toolbox for delivery teams

Nine supervised tools, including an agent handoff builder

Generate test cases and user stories, review architecture and code, draft release notes and API docs, run a security audit, and build a GitHub-context-aware handoff prompt for any agentic coding platform — each one landing as a draft for a person to review, edit, and promote.

Questions

Max & AI workflows, answered

Does the AI ever act on its own?
No. Max only drafts — it never sends anything externally or promotes its own work. Every suggestion waits for a person to review, edit, and approve.
Is our data used to train models, and can we turn AI off?
Client data is never used to train shared or third-party models, and AI can be disabled entirely for your workspace whenever you choose.
