https://www.atlassian.com https://tara.ai Your branding is awfully similar to Atlassian. Not saying it's intentional, but considering you are pitching yourself as a Jira alternative, it would be wise to differentiate yourselves a bit more. Specifically talking about the logo and color.

As a current and former user of BitBucket, Confluence, Jira, and HipChat, the look and feel of Tara is miles away from any Atlassian product. After reading the parent comment, it still took me a few times switching back and forth to notice that both logos happen to be triangular and blueish, and even then the logos are easy to distinguish — obtuse vs. acute apex, curved vs. sharp legs, different shades and gradients of blue.

Why is the user in the "terms and conditions" called a "tester"?

> this pilot agreement ("agreement") is a legal agreement between you ("tester") and tara intelligence inc. ("company"). company is developing a software platform product offering for managing product development lifecycles ("company platform"), and this agreement governs tester's use of the company platform. by accessing or using the service or by clicking the "i accept" button, tester acknowledges that tester has reviewed and accepts this agreement.

Jira is a project management tool? I think that one of the only things we don't use it for.

That's surprising to hear. What do you use for this purpose then?

Jira is a communication and documentation platform. You can bolt on some agile project management stuff (Kanban boards and whatnot), but that stuff always seems like a fifth wheel for Jira.

> Our free forever plan has unlimited tasks, sprints and workspaces, with no user limits. If so, what obstacles prevent from open sourcing it? At least the the part of functionality which is declared to be free forever?

Post open-sourcing: HN article with headline, how Amazon ripped us over night. On a serious note, why should a startup make its code open source, unless they want to. Source open is also not acceptable for majority of HN. n8n tried to use a license that restricts commercial usage, and HN was all pitchforks.

https://www.phacility.com/phabricator/ is a better option

And with better humor.

"Use sophisticated drag and drop to make sure your project is properly micro managed with Workboards.

Grab ahold of tasks, literally. Place them in confusing, new orders. Make a column just for interns! Ignore the backlog forever."

They might be british

FWIW, they explain exactly how they'll make money in the website (under Pricing) and in this thread.

> FWIW, they explain exactly how they'll make money in the website (under Pricing) and in this thread. No, they explain how they currently hope to make money. That's a long way from being the same thing.

This is such a nothing statement. How is that different from setting a price list on their website? They hope people will pay them doesn't mean they will
