Risk Alerts

Risk Alerts Dashboard That Spots
Every Project Risk Automatically

8 alert types monitored live, from overdue tasks to over budget, blocked tasks, and velocity decline, each with a severity level.

Risk Alerts
How it works

From invisible risk to named, severity-classified, actionable alert in four steps

TARO monitors 8 distinct risk signals across your workspace, classifying severity and tracking each alert until resolved.

1

Monitor

Eight failure patterns. Every one monitored live.

TARO runs eight detection engines at once, each watching a different class of delivery risk. Every engine runs continuously. The moment a signal crosses its threshold, an alert fires, no 24-hour lag.

2

Classify

Not everything that fires is equally urgent. Severity says which is.

TARO classifies every alert into one of four severity levels: Critical, High, Monitor, and Info, based on deadline proximity, how many tasks or people are affected, and how long it has persisted.

3

Resolve

Alerts stay open until the underlying risk actually clears.

Every alert follows a four-stage loop. Detection fires it. The dashboard surfaces it with a recommended action. The action is taken. TARO closes the alert only when the data confirms the risk has cleared.

4

Escalate

Ignored alerts escalate. Dismissed alerts are logged.

An alert left unacted on escalates. A Monitor alert not addressed within its window promotes to High. A High that persists near the deadline promotes to Critical. Escalation notifies the relevant lead.

  • Monitor → High if unresolved
  • High → Critical near deadline
  • Dismissed (logged)
  • Configurable thresholds
Why Risk Alerts Dashboard

Six reasons teams never go back

The incident that derailed the sprint was almost always visible days earlier in a metric nobody watched. TARO watches all of them.

Built for every lead who needs
warning before the miss

Leads, PMs, scrum masters, and org admins all use the Risk Alerts Dashboard for one reason: the incident that derails a sprint was usually visible days earlier in data nobody watched.

Engineering Leads

The standup that asks what's blocked? already has the answer before anyone speaks.

Leads open the dashboard before standup. The blocked-task alert shows which task, who caused it, and how long. The velocity alert shows the drop. The WIP alert names the bottleneck.

More from TARO

Alerts surface the risk. These features resolve it.

When the Risk Alerts Dashboard fires, TARO's intelligence gives you the exact action to take.

Bottleneck Analysis

Diagnoses the stage overload or SPOF behind a Workflow Bottleneck alert, prescribing who to add as co-reviewer and what to redistribute.

Workload Distribution

When an Unassigned Tasks alert fires, Workload Distribution shows who has capacity and suggests exact assignments so work gets an owner.

Completion Analysis

The engine behind the Deadline Risk alert, predicting actual finish date from velocity, blockers, and sprint history.

Analytics & Dashboards

The Risk Alerts widget on the main dashboard surfaces the same live, severity-sorted feed giving every role a persistent view of the current risk picture.

Questions & answers

Everything you need to know about the Risk Alerts Dashboard

Common questions from engineering leads, PMs, and org admins evaluating TARO's risk monitoring.

How is the Over Budget alert triggered?

The Over Budget alert monitors two thresholds. A Monitor alert fires when a project's logged spend or tracked hours reach 80% of its budget. A Critical alert fires when the budget is fully consumed or exceeded. Budget tracking uses the project's monetary budget field and aggregates logged time entries converted to cost via the workspace's hourly rate. With no rate set, it uses raw spend only and names the amount over.
