The problem

Challenges

SaaS project management tools locked organizational knowledge behind expensive user seats and restrictive export formats, while hosting self-hosted alternatives created setup friction.

Per-user SaaS seat pricing scaled rapidly as project teams grew.

Hosting project boards on single-server setups lacked automated backups and high availability.

Configuring storage persistent volumes and database connections required manual DevOps overhead.
