Project management that developers actually enjoy

REST API. MCP server. Code blocks. Slash commands. Built by developers who were tired of tools built for everyone except them.

Kanbo is an API-first kanban tool for developers. It provides a full REST API with personal API keys, an MCP server with 125 tools for AI agent integration (Claude, Cursor, Windsurf), a rich text editor with code blocks and syntax highlighting, and slash commands for fast ticket creation — all free for up to 3 projects.

The problem

  • Project management tools designed for managers, not engineers
  • No code blocks, syntax highlighting, or developer workflows
  • Can't automate ticket creation from your CI/CD pipeline
  • No API access without enterprise pricing
  • Ticket templates that don't match engineering workflows

The Kanbo way

  • Rich text editor with syntax-highlighted code blocks
  • 7 slash command templates: bug report, user story, technical task, spike research, and more
  • REST API with personal API keys for automation
  • MCP server — let Claude or ChatGPT manage your board
  • Custom ticket types, priorities, and sizes that match your team's language
