Skemia

From brief to backlog

Stop losing weeks to project documentation.

Skemia turns one project context into a complete, signed-off set of BA deliverables: a business case, a functional spec with a data model, user stories, and wireframes. Generated in hours, not weeks.

Most AI tools generate a document. Skemia runs your whole documentation lifecycle: it links each deliverable to the next, manages approvals, tracks versions, and keeps traceability across the project.

7-day free trial. No card required.

Built by a business analyst, for business analysts.

The problem

You have lived this before.

A brief lands in your inbox.

You spend days pulling the real requirements out of half-answers and meeting notes.

Then the writing starts. The business case. The spec. The stories. The revisions. The stakeholder feedback. The version everyone swears they sent.

Weeks disappear, and you are still documenting instead of delivering.

Skemia gives those weeks back.

One source of truth

Enter your project once. Reuse it everywhere.

Skemia generates every document from a single project context, so nothing is retyped and nothing drifts. No duplicated effort, no contradictory details, no requirement lost between documents. Change something upstream and the whole chain stays consistent.

Why Skemia is different

Most tools help you write documents. Skemia helps you deliver projects.

You set the project context once, then move through the same path experienced business analysts follow every day: business case, functional spec, data model, user stories, wireframes, and stakeholder sign-off. Each stage builds on the last and only moves forward once it is approved, because that is how real projects work.

How it works

From a blank brief to a signed-off backlog.

Six steps, in the order real BA work runs. Each one builds on the last.

1

Define your project, once

Capture the problem, objectives, scope, stakeholders, assumptions, and constraints.

2

Generate your business case

A professional business case, ready to send for stakeholder sign-off.

  • Executive summary
  • Problem statement
  • Options analysis
  • Costs and benefits
  • Risks and recommendation
3

Build the functional spec

Drawn straight from the approved business case.

  • Functional requirements
  • Business rules
  • Process logic
  • Data model
4

Generate user stories

INVEST stories with roles, business value, and acceptance criteria, ready for your dev team.

5

Add wireframes

Low-fidelity grayscale screens, linked to the stories that need them.

6

Manage sign-offs and changes

Invite stakeholders to review online, capture approvals electronically, and track every change with a full audit trail.

Features

Everything you need, in one place.

Business case

A board-ready business case in minutes: executive summary, options analysis, financials, risks, and a clear recommendation, all from your context.

Functional spec + data model

A structured specification with a full data model. Skemia asks the right questions when your input is thin, so nothing important slips.

INVEST user stories

Development-ready stories with roles, value, and acceptance criteria, grouped by role and written to the INVEST standard.

Grayscale wireframes

Low-fidelity screens on demand for the stories that need them, so stakeholders can see it before anyone builds it.

Electronic sign-off

Stakeholders review online and approve electronically. No printing, no email chains, no chasing signatures.

Change management

Log a change or a missed requirement and Skemia re-versions the spec for re-approval, with a complete audit trail.

Editing + version history

Edit any document in place, keep every version, and roll back to an earlier one whenever you need to.

Word + PDF export

Export any document to Word or PDF, structure and headings intact, ready for governance or your project team.

Team workspaces

Share one workspace where everyone sees every project, with simple per-seat billing.
