Answers for product, engineering, and operations teams evaluating inrelay.

What exactly does inrelay do?

inrelay is the connective tissue between product intake and engineering execution. It captures scattered context from Slack, email, documents, or direct Markdown, builds a reviewed PRD, runs Technical Discovery & Refinement, produces a Delivery Plan, and prepares a Handoff Pack for engineers or AI agents.

We already use Slack, GitHub, and Linear. Why do we need inrelay?

Instead of a product manager spending hours manually synthesizing Slack threads, cross-referencing GitHub architecture, and copy-pasting into Linear, inrelay manages the handoff workflow. It turns a raw idea into reviewed scope, an executable Delivery Plan, and a prepared Handoff Pack without removing human approval gates.

How does inrelay handle missing context or ambiguities?

inrelay doesn't guess. If source context lacks product detail, it asks targeted readiness questions before PRD generation. During Technical Discovery and Handoff Pack refinement, it uses connected repo context where available and asks focused engineering questions before pack preparation.

What is a "Handoff Pack"?

It is a structured, context-rich bundle for a coherent unit of delivery work. It includes approved product context, Delivery Plan detail, confirmed repository scope, repo/docs refinement findings, blueprint context when required, acceptance criteria, open questions, and testing notes for a human engineer or AI coding agent.

How secure is our data and source code?

Security is foundational to inrelay. We operate on a strict principle of least privilege:

• We only access the specific Slack channels and GitHub repositories you explicitly authorize.
• All data is encrypted in transit and at rest.
• Crucially: Your proprietary code, PRDs, and internal communications are never used to train public LLM models.

Does inrelay automatically modify our GitHub code or publish Linear tickets?

No. inrelay operates with strict human-in-the-loop checkpoints. You review PRDs, Delivery Plans, Handoff Pack repository scope, and any blueprint gates. inrelay may prepare packs automatically when configured, but external publishing remains explicit by default.

Is inrelay built for human engineers or AI agents?

Both. inrelay prepares source-grounded Handoff Packs that reduce ambiguous tickets for human engineers while keeping the structure AI coding agents need for focused execution.

How does the 14-day free trial work?

You get full, unrestricted access to the inrelay workflow, including Slack ingestion, GitHub repository context mapping, Delivery Plans, and Handoff Pack preparation, for 14 days. No credit card is required to start your alpha trial.
