## Covering all your estimation needs
Unlike many Planning poker tools that typically offer only one estimation method, Smart Guess covers all your estimation needs. It incorporates Planning Poker, asynchronous Planning Poker, and Bucket Estimation.

- Async. Planning Poker. 'The most efficient app for asynchronous Planning Poker', a customer review.
- Planning Poker. 'After trying many planning estimation tools in Jira, we landed on Smart Guess.', a customer review.
- Bucket Estimates. Relative estimates, at their best. Ask, is the story bigger or smaller than 3, 5, or 8? With Smart Guess, you simply drag and drop, and that's it.



Silent Estimation by Smart Guess allows teams to estimate large number of stories faster

>  "We trialed Smart Guess and many other alternatives across several refinement sessions until we found one we were happy with." 

It speaks volumes about Smart Guess, which emerged as the preferred choice after multiple trials - including the traditional tools with many thousand installs.
