Very polished, I'm impressed! It seems like everyone ends up recreating a PM or todo tool at some point. It makes me wonder if there could be a world where we have a standard protocol/api and then anyone can bring their own preferred interface?

Uses the same folder-list paradigm as ClickUp, which, as a long time JIRA user recently converted to ClickUp, I find to be a plus. The simplicity and responsiveness of the interface appears to be an improvement over ClickUp. However, one thing I love about ClickUp is its ability to quickly configure task statuses (which in JIRA, is the equivalent of programming a VCR). So if this product could add flexible task statu…

Chat/message feature is great -- can avoid project-related slack messages.

Thanks so much for your feedback. We do plan to add custom fields in the upcoming months, and you can create custom task statuses from there. Tags in on our roadmap as well. We'll consider nested folders if there are enough demands. You can create subtasks now, but not nested subtasks yet.

One thing I've always wanted in a tool like this is the ability to map out probabilities, i.e., we do A, then B but after that we do either C,D or E. Each one on these has an associated probability (C: 0.4, D: 0.5, E: 0.1) and an associated estimate (C: 10 +- 5 normal, D: 12 +- 3 uniform, E: 3 +-1 normal).

The UI would look like a graph and like ms project it could include resource levelling in order to show bottlenecks.

I know this probably sounds complicated but I think it maps to reality fairly well and thus actually simple (fighting reality is hard).

Congratulations on shipping and getting to revenue! This is terrific looking and you and your team have done some really nice work here. Just purchased.

Thanks so much! It's still the early days, and we have a lot of things to do to make the app better.

Then it would be awesome :)

I just bought the lifetime license, because it looks useful and I hope you're successful. Reminds me a lot of the self hosted https://duetapp.com

Thanks so much for your support! We'll try our best to make the app great!
