What you get
Request a project in under a minute
People pick an approved template, name the project and get a checked, available key. Your extra questions go into the project description, so nothing gets lost.
Approve with one click, created right
Approvers see who asked, why, and from which template. Approve and the project is built with the template's schemes, roles, components and board. Reject with a reason.
Templates and delegation per team
Copy a company-managed template project or use a Jira template, including team-managed. Choose who may request and who approves each template, with an audit log of everything.

How do I get Charterly?
Email hello@greatwork.company and we'll help you get Charterly set up.
Does it work with team-managed projects?
Yes. Use a built-in template: team-managed Kanban, team-managed Scrum or the team-managed general service project. The requester can still be made project administrator.
Are the template project's roles applied to the new project?
Yes. With Copy project role members on, every user and group in the template project's roles is added to the same roles in the new project. The setup steps show how many grants were made, and anything Jira refused is listed by role.
What if I change the template project after projects were created?
Charterly reads the template project each time it creates a project. Switch the template project to a different scheme, or change its roles, components or board, and the next project created from it follows. Projects already created are not changed by those edits.
Can different teams have different templates and approvers?
Yes. Each template has its own requester groups, approver groups and named approvers, and approval can be switched off per template.
How will approvers know a request is waiting?
The Approvals tab shows a count and opens first when something is waiting. Turn on tracking issues in Settings and Jira also emails each template's approver groups and named approvers when a request arrives.
What happens if creating a project fails halfway?
The project is kept, the failed step and Jira's reason are shown in Setup steps, and Retry finishes only the remaining steps. A project is never created twice for the same request.
