# Discovery research before the call starts

Heizen Studio can now prepare teams for Discovery Calls before anyone joins, while planning workflows become more flexible at the story and acceptance-criteria level.

## Discovery Research Agent

Categorizing a meeting as a Discovery Call starts a background research agent. It searches for participant profiles, company context, and buying signals, then prepares a structured brief before the meeting.

## Structured document extraction

PDF and DOCX files now use Azure Document Intelligence to preserve tables, sections, and layout hierarchy instead of reducing documents to plain text.

## Move individual stories between sprints

User stories can move independently between sprints or return to the backlog without moving their parent task, making real-world replanning much less disruptive.

## Prompt-driven acceptance criteria

Give the story a prompt with constraints or extra context and the AI will draft structured acceptance criteria inline, ready to review and save.
