What Kanban AI is

Kanban AI is a web app for planning and shipping side projects. You get kanban columns and cards, sprints, comments, and an AI sidebar that can suggest task breakdowns and next steps in the context of the active project. Guest mode stores a board in the browser so you can try the product before creating an account. Signed-in mode syncs projects through the hosted backend.

What makes it different

Smart Sprint Planning

Drop your idea, preferred tech stack, and skills you want to showcase. The AI project builder drafts a multi-week plan toward an MVP and fills a live workspace with phases and starter tasks before you create the board.

Dynamic Weekly Task Management

The board is the source of truth. Move cards as work progresses; use sprints to focus a slice of the backlog. When you ask the assistant for help, it can recalibrate suggestions from the tasks that are actually on the board—not a generic template.

Interactive AI Assistance

Create tasks with AI assistance, ask follow-up questions, and let the sidebar propose breakdowns or comments. The model is scoped to the project you have open. See AI sidebar & task chat for what it can and cannot do.

Invite Teammates

Add editors by email on shared projects—they see the board in their sidebar and can edit tasks and comments. Public links stay read-only for visitors. Details: Invite project members.

MCP for AI Clients

Connect Claude, Cursor, and other MCP-compatible tools to your boards—list projects, manage tasks, and read sprint context from your editor. Setup walkthrough: Connect Claude & Cursor.

Pricing

Hobby is free for personal side projects (one active project, basic AI task creation, weekly sprint planning). Pro is listed at $6/month for unlimited projects, advanced AI assistance, MCP server access, and priority support (promotional pricing may apply). Enterprise is custom—contact sales for team scale, security, and deployment questions.

How to start

  1. Open the guest board or sign in.
  2. Create a blank board, or use the AI project builder to draft a roadmap first.
  3. Move tasks through columns; use the AI sidebar when you need a breakdown or next step.
  4. Optionally connect Cursor or Claude from Connect AI.
