Claude Project Management: Plans with Real Dates, Not Just Text
Describe what you want to build and Claude creates the project in AxioPlan: epics, PERT-estimated tasks, dependencies and a team. AxioPlan's engines do the maths, so the timeline, cost and P85 delivery date stay right every time you or Claude change something.
What you can ask Claude to do
Claude handles the conversation; AxioPlan does the scheduling, estimating and staffing. Every answer comes from the live plan, not from Claude's guesswork.
Turn a brief into a project
“Plan a customer portal rebuild: SSO, billing history and a support inbox. Two backend devs, one frontend, one QA. Deadline end of March.”
“Break the mobile app epic into tasks with sizes and risk, and wire the dependencies.”
Question the plan
“What's the P85 delivery date, and what does the project cost?”
“What's on the critical path, and which tasks have no one assigned?”
“If you let it hire as needed, when does the project actually finish?”
Edit it in plain English
“Add a two-week hardening phase before launch and put Ana on it.”
“Push everything after the API work out by a week.”
“Cut the reporting epic. How much earlier do we ship?”
