Leiga

Leiga is an AI-powered project management platform built for product and technical teams. It combines agile project tracking with a natural language AI assistant that handles report generation, risk assessment, PRD writing, and subtask creation. The tool is available as a web application with IDE plugins for VS Code and JetBrains, and it positions itself as an alternative to Jira, ClickUp, Monday, and Asana.

What It Is

Leiga sits in the AI-enhanced project management category, targeting project managers, product managers, developers, and dev leadership teams. Its core job is to reduce the manual overhead of sprint planning, status updates, documentation, and reporting by embedding an AI copilot directly into the project management workflow. Teams can interact with the AI through a chat interface to generate reports, break down tasks, and surface risks without leaving the tool.

AI Capabilities Built Into the Workflow

Leiga's AI layer covers several distinct functions rather than a single chatbot:

• Chat-Based Report Generation — users ask the AI to produce tailored reports on demand for individuals, teams, or leadership.
• AI Project Manager — the system analyzes projects in real time, identifies schedule risks, and surfaces actionable insights.
• AI Info Hub — Ask bots let team members query business updates and project status without hunting through tickets.
• Development Subtask Generation — the AI breaks down requirements into subtasks automatically.
• PRD Writing Assistant — the site states the AI writing assistant can save product managers "over 70% of PRD writing time" by generating structured product requirement documents from brief descriptions.

Integrations and IDE Plugins

Leiga connects to a range of developer and collaboration tools. Documented integrations include GitHub, GitLab, Jenkins, Figma, Slack, Microsoft Teams, Draw.io, Zapier, Notion, Sentry, and OpenAPI. IDE plugins are available for VS Code and JetBrains, allowing developers to view and update tasks directly from their editor without switching contexts. A two-way Jira Cloud sync is listed as a feature on higher-tier plans.

Project Templates and Views

The platform ships with pre-built templates covering common workflows:

• Scrum (stories, chores, bugs)
• Kanban
• Work Requests
• Bug Management
• Software Development
• Hardware Development
• HR Interview tracking
• OKR Management
• Content Management

Views include agile boards, table/spreadsheet views, backlog, roadmap and milestone tracking, releases, and dashboards. Teams can also customize issue types, workflows, statuses, fields, formulas, and dashboards.

Audience and Use Case Angles

Leiga targets four primary roles. Project managers get workload monitoring, sprint risk assessment, and real-time bottleneck warnings. Product managers get AI-assisted PRD writing and roadmap views. Developers get IDE-embedded task updates, time tracking, and screen recording with AI transcription for bug reporting. Dev leadership gets performance benchmarking against industry metrics and async-friendly features like screen recording and AI transcription.

Current Status

Leiga is actively available with a free-forever tier and paid plans. The pricing page notes upcoming price increases on the Standard and Professional plans, signaling the product is in a growth phase. The site advertises a free two-week trial of full functionality with no credit card required, and the free plan is described as permanent with a 10-user limit.
