Quickstart
From sign-up to a plan on day one, your first meeting turned into task changes, and your first status update drafted and sent.
on this page
This guide takes a new account through the loop sprintrr is built for: a plan on day one, then a meeting in, the changes approved, and an update out.
1. Create an account
Sign up at sprintrr.ai (opens in a new tab). New accounts start on a 7-day free trial with 3 AI Credits and 3 AI Updates — no card required. On day 8 the dashboard asks you to pick a plan (14 days and 5 AI Credits if you signed up with a referral code; see Plans & credits). Your plan, what's left of both allowances and the trial's end date are always visible in the sidebar and in Settings → Billing.
2. Day one: start the plan
Choose Generate with AI and describe the project in plain language — the client, the deliverable, the deadline. You can also set the project type, the duration in weeks and the complexity.
sprintrr streams the plan back in real time: milestones, and tasks with categories, priorities and hour estimates. It costs one AI Credit, or nothing on your own AI key.
tip:
Treat the generated plan as a strong first draft. Everything — task titles, estimates, milestones — is editable. You can also create projects and tasks entirely by hand.
3. Bring in your first call
Open the project and click Paste transcript in the project header, or press ⌘K and choose Paste a transcript:
- Fireflies? Connect it once in Settings → Integrations → Fireflies with your API key, then click Browse meetings and pick the call. See Fireflies.
- Anything else? Paste the transcript — from Zoom, Teams, Meet, Otter, Granola, or your own notes.
Click Extract tasks and sprintrr proposes new tasks, updates to existing tasks, and removals. Review them — removals start unticked — then click Apply changes. One AI Credit per extraction. More in Transcripts → tasks.
4. Draft the Friday update
Open the project's Updates tab and draft an update. sprintrr writes it from the project's recent activity — TL;DR, shipped, in progress, blockers & risks, next, asks — and leaves a section empty rather than pad it. Edit anything before you publish.
Status updates draw on AI Updates, a separate allowance from AI Credits: 3 on the trial, then 20/100/500 a month by plan, unlimited on your own AI key.
5. Send it
Connect Slack once in Settings → Status updates and pick the channel, or send by email. Publishing is what sends an update — drafts, including scheduled ones, never send themselves. More in Status updates and Slack.
6. Keep the plan current
- Sidebar — switch projects and workspace (personal vs. team), see your AI usage, open Activity and Settings. ⌘K reaches everything from anywhere.
- Overview — the project's week at a glance: milestones on a timeline, what's overdue, blocked or due in the next 7 days, what shipped, and whether this week's update is drafted.
- Kanban, Table, Calendar, Gantt and Milestone — the same tasks, drag to change status or reschedule; time tracking starts and stops as tasks move in and out of In Progress. The views sit in one row from Overview to Analytics, and the number keys 1–0 switch between them.
- Risks and Ask — the risk register, and plain-language questions answered from the project.
- Analytics — are you on pace, where the hours go by milestone, and what's stuck. See Data & export.
- Activity — who changed what, and whether it came from the app, AI or an MCP client.
