# Welcome to the first release.

This document will list and describe all the key features of the initial release. Along with that, we will also walk you over with what's coming up next.

#### Launching Backlog Prioritization

You can access backlog prioritization via the Apps menu on the top.

#### Metrics

The default metrics available in the current version are Impact, Confidence and Ease

**Impact :** this demonstrates how much your idea will bring the positive impact on the customer/ product.

**Confidence :** How much confident you are about the impact.

**Ease :** How easy it is to bring this change.

#### Method

The default method that comes with backlog prioritization is ICE, in the upcoming releases, we will be working to add more methods to be available out of the box, also the feature where you can create your own methods and metrics.

##### ICE = Impact * Confidence * Ease
