Epics & Stories
Epics & Stories is a collaborative, offline-first workspace for product managers and teams to capture and organise product thinking: epics, stories, PRD sections, user feedback, decisions, risks, and research artifacts.
Who it's for
- Product Managers and Product Owners
- Engineering leads (planning and decomposition)
- Designers and researchers (feedback synthesis)
- Support and CS (capturing customer insights)
Core concepts
Boards
A Board is a workspace. Boards are shareable via URL. Boards may be unclaimed (anyone can open) until claimed by an authenticated owner.
Notes
Notes are movable cards on the canvas. Notes have:
- A title (shown on the card)
- A body (Markdown content)
- Position and colour
- Optional metadata such as tags, relationships, comments, and short descriptions (often AI-generated)
Document-centric editing
In addition to a "canvas view", the app supports a document-centric editor surface for focused reading and editing, plus a sidebar for navigation and directories.
Offline-first
The app loads and runs even when offline after the first successful load. Local state is persisted in the browser and later reconciled with the server sync layer when connectivity returns.
What makes it different
- Export/import as Markdown (portable, version-controllable)
- Push-on-mutation sync (minimal idle network traffic)
- AI assistance to generate and rewrite PM artifacts and Jira-style work items
- Workflow phases to guide the PM lifecycle from Ideation through to Launch
