Features

Everything your team needs to ship. Nothing it doesn't.

Cairn replaces the patchwork of trackers, spreadsheets and status docs with one fast, focused place to plan and build.

Built for speed

Create, assign and triage issues without reaching for the mouse. Every action is a keystroke away, and every view loads instantly.

Cycles on autopilot

Set a cadence once. Cairn starts each cycle, rolls unfinished work forward and shows how the team is tracking.

One inbox for every request

Bug reports from support, ideas from Slack and alerts from monitoring land in a single queue, ready to accept or decline.

Roadmaps that update themselves

Projects pull progress straight from their issues, so leadership always sees where things stand. No status doc required.

GitHub and GitLab sync

Link pull requests to issues and move work forward automatically when code merges.

Slack, built in

Get updates where your team already talks, and turn any message into an issue.

Custom workflows

Shape statuses, labels and templates around the way your team actually works.

SSO and SCIM

Sign in with Okta, Google or Microsoft and provision members automatically.

Full audit trail

See who changed what and when, with a complete history on every issue.

API and webhooks

Connect Cairn to anything with a documented API and real-time webhooks.

How it works

Up and running in an afternoon

Most teams move to Cairn in a single sitting. Here is what that looks like.

  1. Step 01

    Import your work

    Bring issues over from Jira, GitHub Issues or a CSV file. Labels, assignees and comments come along for the ride.

  2. Step 02

    Plan your first cycle

    Pick a cadence, pull in the work that matters and let Cairn handle rollovers, reminders and progress updates.

  3. Step 03

    Ship and stay in sync

    Merged pull requests close issues and roadmaps update on their own, so everyone knows where things stand.

Customers

Teams ship more with less noise

Product teams of every size use Cairn to cut the busywork and get back to building.

“We replaced three tools and a weekly status meeting with Cairn. Our cycles got shorter, and nobody has to chase updates anymore.”

Maya Lindqvist

VP of Engineering, Northpeak

“The keyboard shortcuts won my team over in a day. Triage that used to eat an hour every morning now takes ten minutes.”

Daniel Okafor

Product Lead, Kestrel

“Leadership finally has a roadmap they trust, because it updates itself. I haven't built a status slide in months.”

Sofia Reyes

Head of Product, Lumen
