AxioPlan is a specialized project estimation tool created for delivery managers and agency project managers seeking quick answers to scope-related questions during client interactions. By utilizing three-point PERT calculations, users can enter optimistic, most likely, and pessimistic hours for each task, enabling AxioPlan to calculate risk-adjusted totals using the Root Sum of Squares method, which generates P50, P80, and P95 delivery estimates along with a comprehensive cost breakdown organized by epic and role. The platform’s timeline feature functions in real-time; any modifications, such as the removal of an epic or changes in project scope, lead to instant recalculations of delivery dates and associated costs. Users have the option to share a read-only link at any point before or during the call, allowing clients to access the live Gantt chart, the P85 delivery date, and the continuously updated cost breakdown—this real-time adjustment negates the need for tedious PDF recreations or follow-up emails, fostering a quick resolution during the call. Tailored for digital agencies and software consultancies involved in fixed-price contracts, AxioPlan provides a simple flat monthly pricing plan that allows for an unlimited number of team members. This streamlined approach to communication and project management significantly boosts client satisfaction while expediting the decision-making process, ultimately leading to more successful project outcomes. By ensuring that all stakeholders are on the same page, AxioPlan enhances collaboration and drives efficiency throughout the project lifecycle.
