Sound familiar?

You don't need Jira.
But email isn't enough anymore.

✗Jira, ClickUp & Asana are bloated — weeks of setup, 20 fields per task, features you'll never touch
✗Your client refuses (rightfully) to create yet another account just to see your project
✗Google Drive, email, WhatsApp, Zoom — your project is spread across 5 different tools
✗File versions? Only in the filename: "logo_final_v4_FINAL_new.pdf"

From now on

One tool.
For you, your team and your clients.

✓Kanban board with priorities, assignees, comments & @mentions — learned in 10 minutes
✓Invite via link — client or team member: no account, no password, no download
✓Built-in file versioning — old versions are kept, new ones are detected automatically
✓Tasks, files, chat and notifications in one portal — not across 5 different tabs

How we compare

Jira. ClickUp.
Or just a link.

We're not a Jira killer. We're what you actually need when you work on projects with clients or in a team.

How it works

From briefing to delivery.
In 3 steps.

No onboarding. No training. No 200-page docs.

1

Create project

Project name, contact person, email — done. Under 60 seconds. No templates, no setup, just start.

2

Invite people

Clients or team members get an email with a unique link. No account, no password — click the link and the portal opens instantly.

3

Work together

Tasks with priorities, files with versions, chat, comments with @mentions. All in one place, updates by email.

What's inside

Exactly what you need. Nothing more.

Everything for modern project collaboration with clients and your team — without the 400 extras you'd never touch anyway.

📋

Kanban board

To Do, In Progress, Done. With priorities, due dates, and assignees. As clear as a whiteboard — online.

🔗

The others need nothing

No account, no password, no app. Just a link — and your client or team is in. As easy as opening a website.

📁

Real file versioning

Same filename on upload? We ask: new version? Older versions are kept — no more "logo_final_v7.pdf" naming.

💬

Comments & @mentions

Discuss right on the task. Mention people with @. No more feedback lost in 40-email threads.

✉️

Automatic notifications

New file, message, or mention? You and your client get notified by email. Granular settings per user.

📨

Chat in the portal

Messenger right next to the project. No more WhatsApp messages lost between family voice notes.

🎨

Your logo, your color. Clients and team don't see "projektraum" — they see your brand. Available in the Pro plan.

Common questions

How is this different from Jira, ClickUp or Asana?

Those tools are built for enterprise setups with sprints, story points and epics. You work with a handful of people per project — clients or colleagues. You need kanban, files, chat — not 500 features you'll never use. And nobody has to create an account.

Do my client or team need an account?

No. Every invited person gets a unique link via email and can use the portal right away. No registration, no password. The only account that exists is yours.

How does file versioning work?

If you upload a file with the same name, we ask: is this a new version? If yes, it's automatically numbered, older versions are kept. No more filenames like "logo_final_v4_FINAL_new.pdf".

Can I assign tasks, set priorities, and use @mentions?

Yes. Every task has priority, due date, assignee, and comments with @mentions. Participants get automatic notifications — with settings for "mentions only", "all activity" or "no emails".

Is it a tool for me or for the others?

Both. You get a dashboard with all your projects. Your client or team gets a link to exactly one project — with access to tasks, files and chat. You all work on the same board.

How secure are the files?

All files are stored encrypted. Portal links are randomly generated. Hosted on German servers, GDPR compliant — no US cloud, no data sharing with third parties.

What if the others don't use the portal?

The portal is as easy as opening a website — click the link, that's it. Anyone who can open a link can use the portal. Most people find their way around in under 30 seconds.

Never again:
"Where's the latest version?"

Create your first portal in under a minute. Free. No credit card.
