AI assistant — Dhyey

An AI assistant built into
every part of your delivery workflow.

Dhyey, the Effigate AI assistant, generates tasks, plans sprints, detects blockers, analyses capacity, and answers questions about your live project data — governed, tenant-scoped, and opt-in.

Platform capabilities

Every AI capability built natively into your delivery workflow

Dhyey is not a bolt-on chatbot. It is embedded directly into project management, sprint planning, helpdesk, and reporting — operating against live tenant data with full governance controls.

Task generation

Dhyey creates tasks and subtasks from user story descriptions, with estimation suggestions and acceptance criteria generated automatically.

Sprint planning AI

AI analyses your backlog and team capacity to recommend sprint composition, velocity-aware estimates, and poker planning support.

Blocker detection

Dhyey surfaces tasks at risk of missing deadlines, dependency conflicts, and capacity overloads before they become delivery problems.

Capacity analysis

AI reviews team member workload across sprints and projects, identifies over-allocation, and suggests rebalancing options.

Sprint summaries

Dhyey generates natural-language sprint summaries for stakeholder review, capturing outcomes, blockers, and velocity trends.

Multi-provider support

Connect Dhyey to OpenAI, Anthropic, Google Gemini, or Ollama for self-hosted deployments — configured per tenant with full credential isolation.

Task generation

From user story to actionable tasks in seconds

Dhyey reads a user story title and description and generates a structured set of tasks and subtasks that a developer can act on immediately. Estimation suggestions, acceptance criteria, and dependency hints are included so teams spend less time on decomposition and more time on delivery.

  • Tasks and subtasks generated from user story descriptions with one action
  • Acceptance criteria drafted automatically and editable before saving
  • Estimation suggestions based on story complexity and historical team velocity
  • Dependency hints surface related stories or tasks that may need to complete first
  • All generated content is a proposal — a human confirms before any record is written

Sprint planning AI

AI-assisted sprint composition that respects team capacity

Dhyey analyses the backlog, team capacity, and historical velocity to recommend which stories and tasks should enter the next sprint. Planning poker sessions get AI-generated reference points that teams can discuss rather than starting estimates from scratch, keeping planning sessions shorter and more grounded in data.

  • Backlog analysis surfaces the highest-priority and highest-risk items for sprint entry
  • Capacity-aware recommendations prevent over-committed sprints from the outset
  • Velocity-aware estimates use historical sprint data to calibrate story point suggestions
  • Poker planning support provides AI reference estimates alongside team voting
  • Sprint composition proposals are fully editable before the sprint is confirmed

Blocker and risk detection

Surface delivery risks before they become missed deadlines

Dhyey continuously monitors open work for tasks approaching their deadline, dependency chains that could block progress, and team members who are over-allocated. Risk signals are presented with context — not just a warning, but a summary of why a task is at risk and what options exist to address it.

  • Tasks approaching their deadline flagged with remaining time and completion likelihood
  • Dependency conflicts identified where a blocking task is behind schedule
  • Capacity overloads detected at the individual and sprint level before they cause delays
  • Blocker summaries include context — reason, impact, and suggested resolution paths
  • Risk signals surface in sprint board, workload view, and the Dhyey assistant panel

Capacity and workload analysis

AI-powered workload balancing across sprints and projects

Dhyey reviews each team member's assigned tasks, logged hours, and sprint commitments to identify over-allocation before performance degrades. When imbalances are found, Dhyey suggests rebalancing options — specific tasks that could move to a less-loaded team member — so managers can act with precision rather than guesswork.

  • Individual workload reviewed across all active sprints and projects simultaneously
  • Over-allocation detected against declared availability, not just task count
  • Rebalancing suggestions identify specific tasks that are good candidates for reassignment
  • Capacity forecasts project forward to flag upcoming overloads before the sprint begins
  • Workload analysis integrates with the timesheet and leave calendar for accuracy

Governance and data privacy

AI that enterprise procurement and security teams can approve

Every AI interaction in Effigate is tenant-scoped, opt-in, and configurable. No tenant data is sent to any AI provider until the tenant has explicitly activated the integration. Credentials are stored per-tenant, data categories sent to AI are configurable, and Dhyey never writes data autonomously — every action requires human confirmation.

  • AI features are strictly opt-in per tenant — disabled by default at account creation
  • No cross-tenant data access — each AI session operates entirely within the tenant boundary
  • AI provider credentials stored per-tenant and never shared across tenants
  • Data categories included in AI prompts are configurable in Settings → AI & MCP
  • Propose-and-confirm model — Dhyey never creates, updates, or deletes records without explicit user approval

How it works

From AI configuration to governed delivery assistance in four steps

Dhyey activates within the boundaries you set and assists across planning, delivery monitoring, and reporting — always with a human in the loop.

  1. 1
    Step 01

    Configure AI provider

    A tenant administrator connects an AI provider (OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, or Ollama) in Settings → AI & MCP, sets data sharing preferences, and enables Dhyey for the workspace.

    • Provider selected
    • Credentials stored per-tenant
    • Data categories configured
  2. 2
    Step 02

    AI assists with planning

    Dhyey generates task breakdowns from user stories, suggests sprint compositions, and provides poker planning reference estimates. All proposals are reviewed and confirmed by the team before saving.

    • Tasks generated from stories
    • Sprint composition suggested
    • Estimates proposed for review
  3. 3
    Step 03

    AI monitors delivery

    Throughout the sprint, Dhyey monitors open tasks for deadline risk, dependency conflicts, and capacity overloads. Alerts surface in the sprint board and workload view with actionable context.

    • Deadline risks flagged
    • Blockers identified
    • Capacity overloads detected
  4. 4
    Step 04

    AI summarises outcomes

    At sprint close, Dhyey generates a natural-language sprint summary capturing completed work, unresolved blockers, velocity trends, and recommendations for the next cycle — ready for stakeholder review.

    • Sprint summary generated
    • Velocity trends captured
    • Recommendations proposed

Frequently asked questions

Questions about Dhyey and AI governance in Effigate

No. AI features in Effigate are strictly opt-in per tenant. A tenant administrator must explicitly configure an AI provider and enable Dhyey before any AI calls are made. No tenant data is sent to any external AI API until the tenant has chosen to activate the integration and accepted the relevant data handling terms.

AI provider API keys and connection settings are stored per-tenant in the tenant-scoped database. Credentials are never stored in the landlord database and are never shared across tenants. Each tenant configures their own provider, model selection, and any applicable usage limits independently.

Effigate gives tenants control over what data is included in AI requests. By default, only the minimal context required for the requested operation — such as a user story title and description for task generation — is included. Tenants can review and restrict the data categories sent to AI providers in Settings → AI & MCP. No billing data, rate cards, or client credentials are ever included in AI prompts.

No. Dhyey operates on a propose-and-confirm model. All AI-generated content — tasks, subtasks, sprint compositions, risk reports — is presented as a suggestion that a human must explicitly accept or dismiss before any data is written. Dhyey never creates, updates, or deletes records autonomously.

Effigate supports OpenAI (GPT-4 and o1 series), Anthropic (Claude), Google Gemini, and Ollama for self-hosted local models. Ollama support is specifically designed for air-gapped or privacy-sensitive enterprise environments where data must not leave the on-premises network. Additional provider integrations are added on the roadmap as adoption grows.
