One Tool to Align People and Responsibilities

In Doofer, you don’t just estimate time — you connect it to real people. With our role assignment tool, you can match every project task with the right expertise and cost rate, giving your team structure and your estimates accuracy.

Assign predefined roles like Developer, QA, UI/UX, PM, and Scrum Master — or create your own based on your process.

Define Roles Once, Use Them Across Projects

  • Set up custom software project roles with billing and internal cost rates
  • Assign working hours, seniority levels, and descriptions
  • Reuse these roles in every new project or estimation version
  • Keep internal roles separate from client-facing outputs

Assign Roles Directly in the Estimation Table

No need to bounce between planning tools. Doofer lets you assign roles directly to tasks, subtasks, and epics within the same estimation flow — so your project scope and resource plan stay in sync.

With role mapping and Doofer’s org chart views, you can see how responsibilities are distributed across your team and ensure balanced workloads for every estimation.

Roles That Link to Cost, Profit & Delivery

Roles in Doofer aren’t just labels. Each one ties to specific cost calculations, hourly billing rates, and workload contributions — making it easier to predict project profitability from the start.
