At a glance

Vibe-coding a kanban is genuinely fun for an evening. Production Board earns its place when you need production-shaped features: phases with durations, blockers, owner-per-phase, websocket fan-out, audit log. Each one is a multi-day project on its own. Pay from €1/month or pay a few hundred hours.
