See why estimates differ—not only which number won.
Planning Poker is good at hiding votes. Estifire keeps that independence, then adds the missing context: whether each person sees the work as time-consuming, complex, or both.
No account required · Story points, T-shirt sizes, or days
Separate time from complexity
A single card can mean several things. One developer may choose eight because an integration is risky; another may choose eight because testing will take days. Estifire puts those assumptions on separate axes so the team can discuss the real difference.
- 🔥X-axis for perceived time
- 🔥Y-axis for perceived complexity
- 🔥Hidden points until the reveal
Reveal disagreement without anchoring
Everyone places a point independently. When the team reveals, overlapping estimates remain visible and Esti highlights whether the biggest spread is in time or complexity. The facilitator gets a concrete place to begin.
Agree, explain, and keep moving
Run another round after the discussion or select the final estimate directly. Paid accounts can correct the recommendation, record the rationale, export the outcome, and carry several backlog items through one reusable session.
Questions teams ask before trying Estifire
Does Estifire replace story points?
No. Teams can use story points, T-shirt sizes, days, or custom paid-account scales. Estifire changes how the team reaches the value.
Can participants see each other’s estimates?
Not before the reveal. Everyone estimates independently to reduce anchoring.
Is it free?
Live estimation sessions are free and require no account. Accounts add history, reusable team codes, custom scales, and other workflow features.
