Catch requirement defects
before they reach QA.

EthicGuard reads your Jira issues, finds ambiguous acceptance criteria, missing edge cases, and conflicts across linked stories — and writes the QA scenarios you'd otherwise miss. Inside Jira. Without storing your data.

SDLC defense lines Six software development lifecycle stages shown as defense lines. Incoming defects enter from the left. Most are caught at the first line — Refinement — which is EthicGuard's gate. A few slip through and are caught at later gates; a rare one makes it all the way to production. incoming defects → EthicGuard Refinement Development Code Review QA Staging Production 10 defects caught before QA

Six lines of defense. EthicGuard catches them at the first one.

What we catch

Six checks on every Jira issue.

Six checks that run on every Jira issue you point it at — and every finding links back to the exact line in the story that triggered it.

01

Acceptance criteria quality

Flags vague quantifiers, untestable assertions, and missing preconditions in your AC — so QA doesn't have to write the bug report twice.

02

Missing edge & negative cases

Surfaces the cases your AC forgot: empty inputs, race conditions, permission edges, error paths. The ones that ship and break in production.

03

Cross-issue conflict detection

Reads linked issues and epic siblings. Catches contradictions between stories before two engineers build mutually incompatible features.

04

Generated QA scenarios

Produces ready-to-run QA scenarios from your story. Gherkin-style, grouped by risk, ready to drop into your test plan.

05

Suggested QA actions

Recommends labels, comments, and follow-up questions for the reporter — so the story is testable before it leaves refinement.

06

Company & project policy

Per-project and per-company QA policies tune what counts as a finding. Your team's standards, your team's bar.

Zero retention by design

Your Jira content never leaves Jira.

EthicGuard doesn't store issue titles, descriptions, acceptance criteria, or comments. Analysis runs in memory for one call and is then discarded. Only structured findings — anchors, scores, and message keys — are kept, so the UI re-fetches your live Jira content whenever it renders. If you uninstall the app, there's nothing left to recover.

  • No issue text in our database — ever
  • Read-only Jira scope, no write access
  • Per-installation cryptographic isolation
  • Audit log for every analysis run
