Features

Everything included. Nothing in the way.

The whole list — and it is a long one. Dependencies, critical path, Kanban, reports, Excel, AI agents. The difference is that none of it needs configuring before you can plan, and no feature is ever locked behind a paywall.

Plan

An interactive Gantt chart built for real plans

Drag, drop, and reschedule tasks straight on the timeline. Nest tasks into groups that roll up progress, status, and dates automatically, and zoom from days to quarters without losing the thread.

  • Drag-and-drop bars, resize handles, and reordering
  • Unlimited task hierarchy with automatic parent rollups
  • Zoom by day, week, month, or quarter

Plan

Dependencies and critical path that do the math for you

Link tasks with Finish-to-Start and every other relationship, add lead or lag, and let auto-scheduling cascade the dates. The critical path runs a full forward and backward pass, so you always know which tasks drive your deadline.

  • Finish-to-Start, Start-to-Start, Finish-to-Finish, and Start-to-Finish links with lag
  • Auto-scheduling with built-in cycle protection
  • Critical Path Method with full slack analysis

Collaborate

Real-time collaboration, no meeting required

See teammates' cursors move, statuses change, and tasks reorder the instant they happen. Share a read-only spectator link with clients — no signup — and keep a full version history so nothing is ever lost.

  • Live multi-user editing with presence indicators
  • Read-only spectator links for clients and stakeholders
  • Named version snapshots you can preview and restore

Collaborate

Task notes that read like a doc

Write rich task descriptions in a Notion-style editor — headings, checklists, tables, code blocks, and images. Type Markdown or reach for the slash menu; it renders live and saves as you go, so every task carries the full context instead of a bare one-liner.

  • Notion-style WYSIWYG Markdown editor
  • Checklists, tables, code blocks, and inline images
  • Paste Markdown or type it — it renders live

Track

One project, every view your team likes to work in

Switch the same tasks between an interactive Gantt, a sortable list, and a Kanban board. Track health with earned-schedule metrics — SPI, planned value, and earned value — so slippage shows up before it hurts.

  • Gantt, List, and Kanban board views of one plan
  • Project health with SPI and earned-schedule metrics
  • Inline editing everywhere you look

Kanban boards

Drag tasks across columns; the board is just another view of the same plan.

  • Gantt, List, and Kanban board views of one plan
  • Inline editing everywhere you look

Track

Reports & dashboards

Earned-schedule health, SPI, and shareable report views.

  • Project health with SPI and earned-schedule metrics
  • A per-project status email lands in every inbox, every week.
  • Read-only spectator links for clients and stakeholders

Track

Excel in, Excel out — nothing lost in between

Start planning in a spreadsheet and import it in one step, or export a polished report for any stakeholder. It's a true round-trip with a diff preview, so your data is never locked away.

  • Two-way import and export with .xlsx
  • Diff preview before every import
  • Your data stays yours, formatted for any stakeholder

Automate

Hand the busywork to an AI agent — or your own code

Connect Claude, Cursor, or Windsurf through the Model Context Protocol and let an agent create tasks, assign people, and read your Gantt. Prefer to build it yourself? The REST API exposes the same project data over HTTPS.

  • AI agent integration via Model Context Protocol (MCP)
  • REST API for projects, tasks, dependencies, and resources
  • Azure DevOps sync for boards, epics, and work items
