ShipLog

Async daily logs that show what your team shipped this week

● The Problem

Managers ask "what did we ship?" and nobody has a clear answer. Standup notes are scattered. Sprint reviews are backward-looking. There is no real-time feed of team accomplishments.

● The Solution

A daily shipping journal where team members log what they shipped, learned, or unblocked. Weekly auto-generated digest for leadership. Integrates with GitHub, Linear, and Jira for auto-logging.

Competitive Landscape

Geekbot does async standups but not shipping logs. Friday.app was similar but shut down. No tool auto-generates shipping digests from dev tools.

Why Now?

Remote team visibility is a persistent challenge. Git and project management data exists. Auto-generating ship logs removes the manual overhead.
