With powerful agile boards, workload planning, and collaboration tools, it transforms complex projects into manageable plans. Its open development model means you're not just using a tool, you're part of something bigger: a trusted open-source community committed to transparency and security.
Leantime
Leantime invites you to manage projects differently, especially if traditional tools have felt overwhelming or unmotivating. Built with neurodivergent users in mind, it takes a goals-first approach that turns tasks into purpose-driven action. From strategy to execution, it guides users with simplicity and science, using AI and behavioral design to make productivity easier and more rewarding. You don’t have to be a project manager to get the job done, Leantime helps you think clearly, plan intentionally, and build with focus.
Peppermint
Peppermint is where support meets simplicity. It’s a lightweight, privacy-first help desk solution that handles tickets, team notes, and customer communication with no cloud dependencies. Fast, minimal, and self-hostable even on low-powered devices, Peppermint puts your support operations back in your hands. Whether you’re a small team or a growing support center, it delivers essential features without bloat, licensing fees, or lock-in. Markdown notebooks, offline support, and a vibrant open-source community keep it lean and user-driven.
Each of these tools shares a core philosophy: your software should work for you, not the other way around. So if Jira feels too heavy, too closed, or too expensive, it might be time to explore something better.
You're not just switching tools. You're reclaiming control.
