Automatically turn GitHub issues into the correct Jira ticket

AI reads each new GitHub issue, decides if it's a bug or task, and creates the matching ticket in Jira.

How the work actually flows

It branches. Exactly one path is taken.

The problem it solves

Every new GitHub issue has to be read, judged, and manually recreated as the right ticket type in Jira. That triage work is repetitive, and it's easy for issues to sit untouched or land in the wrong queue.

Who it fits

Software teams that track development work in GitHub but manage projects in Jira.

How it works

  1. A new issue is opened in GitHub
  2. AI reads the issue title and description
  3. It classifies the issue as a bug or a task
  4. A matching ticket is created in Jira with the full issue details
What you get

Issues that land in the right tracker automatically

Every new GitHub issue shows up in Jira as the right kind of ticket, ready for your team to pick up.

What you get

A correctly typed Jira ticket, already filled in with the original issue's title and description.

What you need

A GitHub account, a Jira account, and an OpenAI API key.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
