Leantime

Project management for the non-project manager, built with ADHD and neurodivergence inmind

Visit Leantime

Leantime is an open-source project management system built for non-project managers and neurodivergent users, connecting tasks to goals, milestones, and strategy. It addresses cognitive overload by organizing work around purpose and personal productivity, offering a personal dashboard that aggregates tasks across projects, time blocking with iCal import, private notes, and built-in whiteboards for mind maps and wireframes.

Project modules include To Dos with Kanban, Table, and List views, subtasks, dependencies, milestones with Gantt timelines, ideas, docs, blueprints, reports, timesheets, and retrospectives. AI features include task prioritization based on task ratings, task breakdown into subtasks, personalized project stories, and status update collection and report generation. Strategy tools cover vision, focus areas, and strategic goals linked to project goals. The platform supports LDAP, SSO, and OIDC, an API, a plugin marketplace, and mobile apps for iPhone and Android.

Leantime is aimed at small business owners, product teams, and digital consulting agencies, as well as users who prefer self-hosted or open-source tools. It is available as open source with self-hosting options, and a free plan and trial are offered. Some AI features are noted as unavailable in the open-source version.
