Plan the work breakdown. See it in Jira.

Brekko replaces the spreadsheet WBS. Build the tree once, plan it by the week on a quarter Gantt, and link the lowest-level work packages to Jira epics to see their status right next to the plan.

Example work breakdown structure: 1 Website relaunch; 1.1 Design; 1.1.1 Wireframes, Jira epic WEB-12, Done; 1.1.2 Visual design, Jira epic WEB-14, In Progress; 1.2 Build; 1.2.1 CMS setup, Jira epic WEB-20, To Do; 1.2.2 Content migration.

What Brekko does

One plan for the whole project, kept in step with the epics your teams actually work on.

  • Automatic WBS codes

    Add, move and nest elements; codes like 1.2.3 update themselves. Drag and drop or use the menu.

  • Plan the quarter

    Give goals, sub-goals and epics a window in ISO weeks on a quarter Gantt. Work outside its parent's window is flagged, and a delivery summary shows what is late and what ends next.

  • Jira epics with live status

    Link work packages to existing epics or create them from the plan. Status syncs on a schedule and on demand, and viewers see it without a Jira account.

  • Editors and viewers

    Editors build the plan; viewers see the WBS, plan and Jira status without changing anything.

  • Your Jira, your access

    Each user connects their own Atlassian account. Tokens are encrypted; Brekko only reads and writes Jira work items.

  • Hosted in the EU

    No tracking, no ads, no analytics cookies. Just the sign-in cookie the app needs.

How it works with Jira

  1. 1
    Build your WBS

    Create the project and break the work down to the epic level.

  2. 2
    Connect Jira Cloud

    Sign in with Atlassian once; pick the Jira site and project for the plan.

  3. 3
    Link or create epics

    The WBS code becomes the epic title prefix, so both sides stay recognisable.

  4. 4
    Plan and track

    Plan windows on the quarter Gantt; Jira status and the delivery summary show what is late, so stakeholders read one plan, not five boards.
