Progressive Estimation

Estimate AI-assisted and hybrid human+agent development work using research-backed formulas with PERT statistics, confidence bands, and calibration feedback loops.

Overview

Progressive Estimation adapts to your team's working mode — human-only, hybrid, or agent-first — applying the right velocity model and multipliers for each. It produces statistical estimates rather than gut feelings.

When to Use This Skill

  • Estimating development tasks where AI agents handle part of the work
  • Sprint planning with hybrid human+agent teams
  • Batch sizing a backlog (handles 5 or 500 issues)
  • Staffing and capacity planning with agent multipliers
  • Release date forecasting with confidence intervals

How It Works

  1. Mode Detection — Determines if the team works human-only, hybrid, or agent-first
