What's inside.

Everything a team needs to run a season, and nothing it doesn't. Every member sees the same workspace.

Work

Tasks with an assignee, a priority, a due date, and a status, grouped by project.

Capture

At the end of a meeting, say or type what happened. It becomes tasks and decisions in your workspace.

History

Every decision and record, in order, so the reasoning is still there next season.

Tools down. Thoughts saved.

At the end of a meeting, say what happened. Capture turns it into tasks and decisions inside your workspace.
