What is Octopus.do?
Octopus.do spends October on the canvas: compact layout, statuses, sticky notes, arrow labels.
Octopus.do is a sitemap and content-planning tool that became agent-operable in August through ChatGPT and Claude apps, an MCP server and a REST API. September added team features; since mid-October it has shipped canvas work: a Compact layout for large sitemaps, project statuses, sticky notes that move with pages, and labels on arrows.
What is Savah?
A SAFe planning tool steadily widening from boards into analytics and resourcing
Savah is a Program Increment / SAFe planning tool built around the Program Board. Recent work pushes past board mechanics into configurability (custom fields, screen layouts), a dedicated reporting Dashboard, dependency health tracking, and team capacity planning.

Octopus.do spends October on the canvas: compact layout, statuses, sticky notes, arrow labels.
◆ Current state
Octopus.do is a sitemap and content-planning tool that became agent-operable in August through ChatGPT and Claude apps, an MCP server and a REST API. September added team features; since mid-October it has shipped canvas work: a Compact layout for large sitemaps, project statuses, sticky notes that move with pages, and labels on arrows.
◆ Where it's heading
After the agent integrations and team layer, the product is refining the sitemap itself as a review artifact that clients and teams can annotate and approve. The releases are small and steady, roughly weekly.
◆ Prediction
Expect more review-workflow features such as approvals or status-based filtering; the entries don't show new agent or MCP work since August.

A SAFe planning tool steadily widening from boards into analytics and resourcing
◆ Current state
Savah is a Program Increment / SAFe planning tool built around the Program Board. Recent work pushes past board mechanics into configurability (custom fields, screen layouts), a dedicated reporting Dashboard, dependency health tracking, and team capacity planning.
◆ Where it's heading
The arc is toward a more complete enterprise-agile platform: not just visualizing PI work but configuring it to a team's model, reporting on it, and planning resources against it. Each release fills a gap a SAFe coach would otherwise solve with spreadsheets.
◆ Prediction
Expect continued depth on reporting and resource planning — likely more dashboard widgets and capacity/forecasting refinements that build on the recently shipped Dashboard module.
