Generate RTMs, detect coverage gaps, and analyze downstream impact using your existing Jira work item links. Requirements Traceability ### Generate audit-ready RTMs directly from Jira links. Your audit requires a chain from requirement to validation evidence. Links Explorer reads your existing work item links and generates a live RTM - scoped to any JQL filter, exportable to CSV. - Live RTM generation from Jira links - JQL-based project scoping - CSV export for audits and reviews Jira / Links Explorer [![Links Explorer Feature](./assets/img/logos/other/links-explorer-fh1.png)](./assets/img/logos/other/links-explorer-fh1.png) Coverage Analysis ### Detect coverage gaps before your auditor does Orphan requirements - those with no downstream test links - are the most common audit finding. Links Explorer detects them within the selected scope. No manual review. No missed gaps at audit time. - Detect missing downstream links - Surface audit-critical gaps early - Eliminate manual traceability reviews Jira / Links Explorer [![Links Explorer Feature](./assets/img/logos/other/links-explorer-fh2.png)](./assets/img/logos/other/links-explorer-fh2.png) Impact Analysis ### Trace change impact across every linked work item When a requirement changes, every downstream item is affected. Links Explorer maps upstream and downstream dependencies recursively - so Change Control Board submissions include full impact visibility. - Recursive dependency mapping - Full visibility into linked work items - Better Change Control Board reporting Jira / Links Explorer [![Links Explorer Feature](./assets/img/logos/other/links-explorer-fh3.png)](./assets/img/logos/other/links-explorer-fh3.png) Interactive Demo ## Try Links Explorer with live sandbox data.

Being able to easily jump to related tickets that are removed by 3 layers is so helpful. The tech support is amazing, they make sure you are taken care of." JK Jon Kocen "Sent a request in for support and it was solved within hours, great product." DS David Stoddard "Managing large or complex projects in Jira can be overwhelming. Links Explorer helped us to break down complex projects into several manageable chunks specially the tree view, which makes it easy to identify dependencies and potential bottlenecks, leading us to improve our efficiency and project delivery." AN Ankit Negi “Vendor\`s support works very well - colleagues were keen to debug the issue in few live sessions (despite the fact that it seemed to be instance-specific issue) and to prepare improved plugin version that is proofed from further issues of that kind.
