About SmileAgile

Built by an Agile leader to close a real data gap: turning team morale into insights for leadership.

Why This Product Exists

Informally measuring my teams' mood has always been one of my management pillars. But when I joined BMW Technology Corporation in the USA, I hit a roadblock: I had no data to back me up when advocating for my teams with leadership.

Data changes the conversation with leadership: from gut feeling to actionable strategy.

The Manual Bottleneck

I started a biweekly happiness survey with SurveyMonkey, then compiled the results in an Excel sheet. Discussing the trend with the team helped us counter any downhill shift early, and the chart pinpointed the team's frustrations for leadership. But the process was tedious, and Excel could never show the votes and their trend on the same chart.

Completing the Vision: the AI Copilot

The goal was never just to collect data, but to make acting on it effortless. The MCP server, new in 1.2, completes that vision.

Connect your AI assistant (Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor...): it reads your teams' morale trends and the anonymous comments, and prepares your retrospectives, health checks and reports when you ask it to. Scrum Masters get their time back for what matters most: their people.

SmileAgile brings together 100% anonymous votes, trend charts and AI assistants. Built by an engineer who missed coding.
