About Pre.dev
Pre.dev turns a natural-language description of a product into development planning artefacts — technical specifications, architecture diagrams and project roadmaps. It aims at the gap between "we know what we want to build" and a document detailed enough for someone to start from, which is where a lot of projects quietly lose weeks.
We track it; we do not plan this way. Our planning lives in the repository next to the code, because the coding agent that implements the plan reads the same files. We list Pre.dev as the option for the other case — when the plan needs an audience that will never open the repo: a client, an agency, a stakeholder signing off on scope.
Linear is the answer if what is missing is tracking rather than specification. Notion is where most specs actually end up and is hard to beat when the document has to be edited by people. Jira is the pick when process and approval trails matter more than speed. ChatPRD covers the product-requirement half of the same problem. And a coding agent working directly in the repository often produces a better plan than any standalone tool, because it can read what already exists. Pre.dev earns its place at the handover point and not much before it. Treat generated architecture as a first draft to argue with, not a decision.
