One AI toolkit forproduct owners
Meeting notes to Jira tickets. Screenshots to requirements. A session memory your AI tools can read. One menu-bar app, one shortcut.
Your loop is meetings to tickets,
your tools don't know that
A PO's day is one loop on repeat: listen, extract, write it up, file it. A chat tab sees none of your sprint, your screen or your morning, so you re-explain everything at every prompt. Khint puts the whole loop behind one shortcut: a session opens before refinement, the sprint and the diagram nobody sent you land in it, and the story you draft at eleven already knows all three.
The palette comes to the text, not the other way around
No window to open, no tab to switch, nothing to paste twice. Khint reads the selection where it is and writes the answer back in the same place.
The real palette, running an agent on a real inbox, then a workflow that ends in Jira.
Two ways to get from notes to a ticket
The work is the same either way. What changes is how much of it you retype, and how far the result has to be carried by hand.
A chat tab that knows no sprint
The drafting isn't the slow part. The slow part is re-establishing what your team already knows, then carrying the result to the tracker by hand.
- You paste the notes, then the epic, then explain what the team committed to last week. Every prompt starts from zero.
- The spec is a diagram on somebody's shared screen, so you retype it by hand or you draft without it.
- The answer comes back inside the tab. Filing it is a second job: switch to Jira, create, paste, fix the formatting.
- Tomorrow's refinement starts the whole explanation again, because nothing you said today was kept anywhere you own.
Khint, on the notes you already wrote
Select the notes where they already sit and the story comes back in place. A workflow ends on a real issue key, after the picker asked you first.
- Select the notes where they already sit. ⌘⇧K, pick the agent, and the story lands back in place.
- An active Memory session already holds the sprint you pulled and the screen you captured, so the draft knows the epic without being told.
- A workflow ends on a created Jira issue key, so the ticket is filed by the same shortcut that drafted it.
- Nothing is filed that you haven't read: every integration write opens its picker and asks before it runs.
The four pieces
a PO actually presses
Not a product tour. These are the four pages behind the loop above, in the order a refinement day meets them, and every one of them is a shipped feature rather than a roadmap slide.
Agents
Your ticket format as a prompt with a shortcut. Draft the user story on the notes where they already sit, in any app.
Memory
One session per refinement. The draft already knows the epic, and Claude Desktop or Codex read the same live session.
Workflows
Extract requirements, format as a ticket, create it in Jira. Up to five steps behind one key, ending on the issue key.
Integrations
Pull the active sprint, file the issue, publish the page. Your own API token, and every write is one explicit run.
What changes on a refinement day
Three things, and none of them is another tab to keep open.
- StopsRetyping the sprint into a promptThe session already holds what you pulled from Jira this morning, so the draft starts from the epic instead of from your summary of it.
- LandsThe ticket, in Jira, with its keyA workflow ends on the created issue key. Nothing is filed that you haven't read, and nobody carries a draft into a browser tab to paste it.
- Gets backThe gap between the meeting and the ticketNotes to a filed story is one shortcut and one confirm, so the write-up stops being a second task you schedule for later in the week.
Common questions from POs and BAs
What can a product owner actually do with Khint?
Select any text (meeting notes, a Slack thread, an email), hit Cmd+Shift+K, and run an AI agent on it in place: rewrite it as a user story, extract requirements, polish a PRD section. The same palette pulls and creates Jira issues and Confluence pages (with an Atlassian API token), captures any region of your screen to text, and chains up to 5 steps into a workflow that ends with a created ticket.
Does Khint replace Jira, Confluence, or Linear?
No. Khint writes into them. Connect Atlassian (email + API token + cloud domain) or Linear (API key) from the in-app Integrations page, and the palette gains rows like Create issue, Add comment, Change status, and Create page. Workflows can embed those writes as steps, so 'meeting notes → formatted ticket → created in Jira' is one workflow.
Does my backlog leave my machine?
Only what you explicitly act on. An agent sees the text you selected plus, optionally, the active Memory session's compact summary, nothing else. Memory sessions live in a local SQLite file and are never synced to a server. Atlassian and Linear credentials stay in your OS keychain.
Is there a free plan?
Yes. The free tier includes 300 credits a month, about 10 AI actions a day, no credit card. Paid plans start at €7/month: Pro at €29/month gives 4,000 credits a month, and every plan includes all the work integrations. Khint runs on macOS 13+ and Windows 10 22H2+.
