How is Vantage different from ChatGPT or Claude?

ChatGPT and Claude write you a document. Vantage keeps the document, prototype, tickets and roadmap connected to the feedback and decisions behind them, and tells you when one of them changes. You can also bring your Vantage context into Claude or ChatGPT, so you don’t have to choose.

Do I have to move off Notion or Linear?

No. Keep the tools you use and connect them to Vantage. Tickets push to Linear with two-way sync, and you approve every change that comes back.

What can I do in the first ten minutes?

Paste customer feedback or describe a problem, and get a PRD with every requirement linked to its source. You can try the demo on this page without signing up. Connect your tools whenever you’re ready.

I own several projects. What does Vantage do across them?

It briefs you every morning on what needs your call, catches specs that contradict each other, and flags anything that went stale after a decision changed. It works for a single project and earns its keep at two or more.

What if the AI gets something wrong?

Nothing updates silently. Every requirement cites the quote, call or metric behind it, and every change arrives as a diff you accept or reject before it touches your docs, tickets or Linear.

Can I use Vantage from Claude or ChatGPT?

Yes. Connect Vantage’s MCP server to Claude, add the GPT Action in ChatGPT, or use an API key. Then ask about your projects, search your specs, or create tickets from wherever you work.

Start on your own for free. When teammates join, they work from the same context, with admin, editor and viewer roles and private drafts that stay invite-only until you publish.

What does fair use mean on the unlimited features?

Unlimited features are meant for real day-to-day work by one person: up to 50 questions a day on Pro and Business, and on Business up to 10 PRDs, journeys or ticket batches a day. Very few people get close. If your team regularly needs more, talk to us.

Your data is encrypted in transit, and we never train on it. The AI providers we use are contractually barred from training on it too. You can disconnect any integration or delete your account at any time. We’re pursuing SOC 2 Type II.

How much does it cost?

Vantage is free to start with 300 credits and no credit card. Projects are unlimited on every plan, and AI work like generating a PRD or a ticket batch uses credits. Pro is $19 per seat a month billed annually ($25 monthly) with 1,500 credits a month, unlimited questions and prototypes. Business adds a shared team workspace and 4,000 credits per seat a month.

Is this a native Epic Template object?

No. It is Shortcut’s documented Story Template workaround, followed by Story-to-Epic conversion.

Which ownership moves across?

The Story owner becomes Epic owner; the Story Team becomes the Epic Team, and the converting user becomes the requester.

Create a Shortcut Epic Template Using Story Templates

Shortcut has no dedicated Epic Template feature. Its documented workaround saves a Story Template with subtasks, then converts each new Story created from it into an Epic.

Enable Story Templates and Sub-tasks first. Use an editable Story, and keep a copy of discussion you need because Story comments do not transfer to the Epic.

Example: a recurring integration rollout uses a parent description for the goal and subtasks for API work, documentation and release verification.

Step-by-step guide

Build the reusable parent Story

Write the recurring outcome in the title and description. Add one subtask for each deliverable; owners can be set when they are stable across rollouts.

Save the Story as a template

Duplicate the prepared Story, remove release-specific details, and use Create Story dropdown > Save as New Template. Name it Integration rollout Epic base.

Instantiate the next rollout

Create a Story from that template and replace placeholders with the actual integration name, scope and dates. Check the subtasks before converting.

Convert the instance to an Epic

Open the new Story Actions menu and select Convert Story to Epic. Confirm and inspect the resulting Epic: the original is archived and its subtasks become Stories.

Common mistakes

Assuming comments migrate

The conversion does not transfer Story comments. Move important decisions into the description before conversion.

Spend less time on setup, more on decisions

Vantage connects your tools and generates specs grounded in real data. Free to start.

Spec to tickets

Working in Shortcut? Turn your spec into dependency-ordered tickets.

Paste the feature or spec. Vantage pulls out the requirements and breaks them into tickets, ordered by what blocks what, ready to groom with your team.

How this works

We save what you typed. No AI runs on this page.
You create a free account.
Vantage builds a PRD and dependency-ordered tickets from it inside your own workspace.

Why ask for an account? We’re a small team, and a full generation runs a multi-step AI pipeline that costs us real money. So we tie it to a free account instead of running it anonymously. You also get to keep the result and edit it.

Your text is only used to create your project, and it stays private to your account. If you don’t sign up, we delete it after 7 days. Privacy policy
