Kanban collaboration simplified

Seeking greater control over project workflows, the founder built Kan as an open-source kanban application that teams can self-host and customize. By removing proprietary constraints, Kan provides complete ownership over collaboration tools.

With unlimited boards, role-based permissions, and seamless Trello imports, Kan tackles the challenge of fragmented task management. Its flexible design unifies planning, progress tracking, and team communication into one powerful workspace.
