Stay close to the latest releases, implementation tips, and behind-the-scenes notes on how we build Kanman.
B2B planning suites optimize for reporting, not doing. Here's why tools built for oversight sabotage the people doing the actual work.
Every feature is a potential distraction. Kanman's deliberate omissions - no calendars, no AI, no dashboards - aren't gaps in a roadmap. They're the point.
Most B2B planning tools serve managers at the expense of makers. Here's how to evaluate tools through the lens of worker agency - and why it matters.

Velocity charts and burndown graphs can make you feel behind even when you're shipping. Here's how vanity metrics distort priorities - and how Kanman's absence of metrics lets outcomes speak for themselves.
