The kanban board that keeps up with you
Capture a task in one line, drag it across a real kanban board with zero lag, and share it with your team when you're ready. Roost is opinionated where it saves you time and out of your way everywhere else.
Ship the reportFriHighlaunch← typed as Ship the report fri !high #launch
Capture in ~2 seconds
One line does it all: “Ship report fri !high #launch” becomes a card with a due date, priority, and label. Dates parse naturally — fri, next tuesday, in 3 days.
Never wait on your board
Every move is optimistic: cards drop instantly and sync in the background. No spinners, no full-page reloads — the recurring complaint about heavyweight tools, solved.
Real kanban, not a list
WIP limits that warn when a column overflows. Swim lanes by priority, label, or assignee — as bands across your columns or stacked mini-boards. Drag across a lane to reassign.
Share when you're ready
Solo by default, team-ready underneath. Invite by email as editor or viewer, see who's doing what with assignee avatars, and watch changes land live.
Cards with depth
Markdown descriptions, checklists, due dates, labels — all autosaving. Archive instead of delete, restore any time.
A memory of everything
The activity log keeps the story straight: who moved what, when, and where. Keyboard-first shortcuts and full drag-and-drop accessibility included.
