Free Project Timeline Estimator — Sprint-Based Software Development Estimate
A project timeline estimator breaks a software feature list into estimated development effort (story points or days), divides by team velocity, and produces a sprint-based timeline. This tool helps founders and project managers set realistic delivery expectations — accounting for discovery, development, testing, and deployment phases.
