GitHub issue prioritization for teams

Build a collaborative dashboard that helps dev teams visually sort and prioritize GitHub issues. Integrates with existing workflows to reduce meeting time.

Why now

With remote work, async issue triage is crucial but tools are still primitive compared to code collaboration tooling.

Who for
Engineering managers
Business model
SaaS subscription
Effort
A few weeks

Engineering teams waste hours in meetings just to prioritize GitHub issues. A visual kanban-style interface could let contributors vote and comment on issues directly in GitHub.

Build as a GitHub App that adds a prioritization layer on top of issues. Charge per repo based on team size.

MVP: Simple voting buttons and sorting for issues within a single repo.

Risk: GitHub could add native prioritization features.
