Coadmap Inc. Launches AI-Driven Project Management Platform 'Coadmap', Featuring AI Agent 'Yata' to Automate Ticketing, Reviews, and Documentation

Tokyo-based Coadmap Inc., led by CEO Teruhiro Makino, has launched the general availability of its AI-driven project management platform, "Coadmap," positioned as "The Decision-Making OS for Product Organizations." Coadmap structures project context into a three-tier hierarchy of Goal (customer value) → Feature → Task. Upon this structure, it actively deploys the AI project manager "Yata" to autonomously support project operations such as daily scrum preparation, PR reviews, specification updates, and referencing past decisions.

The product has been in development for some time, with certain features and plans offered in a closed capacity since 2025 to partners including publicly listed companies.

**Background: "Implementation Got Faster, but Product Organizations Couldn't Keep Up"**

The proliferation of coding agents (like Devin, Claude Code, Cursor) has increased the amount of code a single engineer can write per day by 3 to 10 times. However, this has led to several simultaneous problems in product organizations:

- Specifications are months behind the actual implementation. - Tickets only represent 'tasks' and lose the 'why'. - Meeting minutes, chats, and code are fragmented across different locations. - There is no project context that can be fed to AI.

The next bottleneck isn't implementation speed, but the entire product organization's resolution on the 'Why.' This is a structural issue, not one of individual workload, stemming from different teams using different tools.

**Coadmap's Hypothesis and Value Proposition**

Based on the hypothesis that "organizations can only make continuous, substantive decisions on top of information structured from a customer-value perspective," Coadmap is designed as a decision-making OS. It takes an approach of structuring everything from goals to tasks and placing a proactive AI PM on top of that structure.

**Three Pillars**

1. **Structure:** A three-tier model ("Goal=Why / Feature=What / Task=How") connects parent-child relationships, allowing both humans and AI to instantly grasp the purpose of any task.

2. **Connection:** An integrated hub for project context. Collaboration notes unify meeting minutes and specifications. GitHub integration links PRs, commits, and issues to the project structure, even proposing automatic spec updates upon PR merges. Furthermore, its CoadmapMCP (compliant with Anthropic's Model Context Protocol) allows standard-compliant AI IDEs like Claude Code and Devin to access project context through a 'front door.'

3. **AIPM "Yata":** A proactive AI Project Manager that doesn't wait for commands but infers necessary actions from context. Its concept is "Not to replace people, but to free people from tasks."

**Four Key Scenarios for Yata**

- **Morning (08:55) Scrum Prep:** Yata aggregates sprint progress, identifies risks like delays, and organizes discussion points for the daily scrum. - **Midday (11:30) Coding Agent Collaboration:** Delegates tasks to Devin/Claude Code, provides context, and reviews the implementation from a customer-value perspective. - **Evening (17:30) Spec Updates on PR Merge:** When a PR is merged, Yata suggests necessary updates to the relevant feature's documentation. - **Anytime Cross-Reference:** Instantly answers questions about past decisions, providing chronological context.

**Security and Data Governance**

Coadmap is built on three principles, assuming operation by enterprises including publicly listed companies: data is not used for LLM training, AI features can be disabled organization-wide, and all data is encrypted in transit and at rest.

**Use Cases**

Coadmap is effective for in-house product development, contract development, and companies looking to internalize their development processes.

**Pricing and Availability**

Offered as a SaaS, Coadmap uses a combination of tiered, flat-rate tenant plans and AI credits. For details, please refer to the official pricing page.

**Future Developments**

Future plans include enhancing Yata's feedback learning mechanism, expanding people and knowledge management features, and increasing the number of integrated AI agents.

**A Word from the CEO (Teruhiro Makino)**

"The reason product organizations aren't freed from being busy is that information is fragmented and context isn't connected. Coadmap is an OS that structures context starting from customer value and runs the AIPM 'Yata' on top of it, creating a state where organizations can spend time on 'decision-making' instead of 'tasks.'"
