The Problem
Why teams leave Basecamp
No Gantt charts, timeline views, or dependencies
No time tracking — need a separate tool
Flat structure doesn't support complex projects
Limited reporting and analytics
No custom fields or workflow automation
What We Build Instead
Your custom project management tool
Simple, opinionated PM with the features Basecamp left out
Message boards, to-dos, and schedules plus timelines and Gantt
Built-in time tracking and invoicing
Custom fields and lightweight automation
Reports that show project health at a glance
