Index Cards

Small cards, often called story cards, hold user stories and move through the team's workflow to show progress. They make work visible and transparent, helping the team spot risks or problems early.

Key Points

  • Each card represents a single user story with a brief description and acceptance criteria.
  • Used on a visible board (physical or digital) to track status across workflow steps.
  • Supports the 3Cs of user stories: Card, Conversation, and Confirmation.
  • Improves transparency and early detection of blockers, bottlenecks, and dependencies.

Example

A Scrum team writes a user story on an index card and places it in the To Do column. As work starts, the card is moved to In Progress. During stand-up, the team notices several cards piling up in Code Review, revealing a bottleneck and prompting them to reassign reviewers.

Explanation: Index cards (story cards) are visual placeholders for user stories that flow across the board, increasing transparency and enabling early discovery of issues.
