The team must provide estimates beforehand, or everyone's time reviewing the stories and estimating before the meeting is wasted. In Smart Guess, this information is readily available in the Jira Backlog by adding the "Estimated By" custom field to the Card Layout. Check out the following post on how this is set up: [See who has given an estimate immediately when looking at your backlog](https://smartguess.is/blog/see-who-has-given-an-estimate-when-using-asynchronous-planning-poker/).

2. **Review each story together** - When all estimates are in place, one click to share estimates - will bring up the following screen
