Sample: input → output

Input
The work to estimate
rebuild the notification system: email, push, in-app, user preferences, digest batching
Sample outputMade on 27 October 2026

Estimation scale

  • S: 0.5–1.5 engineering days
  • M: 2–3 engineering days
  • L: 4–5 engineering days

Assumes one engineer, code review included, existing CI/CD and authentication, and no major infrastructure procurement. QA/UAT time is included per slice but cross-system rollout support is not.

Delivery slices

1. Notification event contract and channel-agnostic model — M

Scope

  • Define notification types, recipients, payload schema, priority, channel eligibility, timestamps, and idempotency key.
  • Add producer-facing API or internal library.…
