Why Teams Choose Nesty

Stop manual handoffs, missed steps, and coordination overhead. Nesty automates your workflows so your team can focus on what matters.

Automated Handoffs

Tickets automatically reassign and notify the next team when ready. No more manual coordination or forgotten handoffs between dev, QA, and deployment.

Quality Gates

Enforce Definition of Ready, Definition of Done, and quality gates with blockers. Prevent incomplete work from progressing until standards are met.

Zero Manual Coordination

Workflows run themselves. Triggers automatically notify Teams/Slack, change assignees, attach files, and unlock next phases—all without manual intervention.

Powerful Features

Everything you need to transform Jira tickets into automated, self-managing workflows.

Unlimited Nested Checklists

Break down complex work into hierarchical checklists with unlimited depth. Organize by phases, teams, or any structure that makes sense for your workflow.

Smart Triggers

Automate actions with triggers: block progression, notify teams, change assignees, require file attachments, or cascade multiple actions together.

Team Notifications

Automatically post to Microsoft Teams or Slack channels when work is ready. Include deep links to Jira issues and context about what's needed next.

Automatic Assignee Management

Workflows automatically reassign tickets to the right person or team at the right time. Rotate work fairly or route to specialists based on your rules.

File & Artifact Management

Require attachments before progression or automatically attach build artifacts, deployment packages, and documentation when phases complete.

Process Enforcement

Use blockers to enforce quality gates, prevent skipping steps, and ensure proper sequencing. Turn your best practices into automated workflows.

Real-World Use Cases

See how teams use Nesty to automate their most critical workflows.

Dev → QA Handoff

Keep everything in one ticket. When dev tasks complete, automatically:

Unlock QA section with a blocker
Reassign to QA team
Notify #qa-incoming channel in Teams
Attach build artifacts automatically

"No more manual reassignment or forgotten notifications. The ticket literally hands itself off when ready."

Definition of Ready

Ensure every story meets quality standards before development:

Designs approved ✓
Acceptance criteria written ✓
API contracts signed off ✓
Blocker prevents dev until complete

Prevents incomplete stories from entering development, reducing rework and delays.

Multi-Environment Deployments

Manage deployments across dev, staging, and production:

Blocker gates between environments
Automated smoke tests and checks
Stakeholder review gates
Final deployment notifications

Automatic gating ensures proper sequencing and quality at each stage.

Customer Onboarding

Manage implementation projects with clear phases:

Kickoff → Configuration → Training
Each phase blocked until previous completes
Automatic handoffs between teams
Go-live checklist with final gates

Nothing gets missed. Each phase must be 100% complete before the next begins.
