kanNINJA
Project management that gets out of your way — and that an AI agent can actually drive.
THE PROBLEM
Kanban tools got bloated — and none of them were built for agents
The popular boards had drifted into feature bloat, upsell mazes, and pricing that punished small teams — and not one of them let an AI assistant meaningfully operate a board. kanNINJA was built out of that frustration: fast, focused work management where the AI integration is the point, not a bolt-on gimmick.
WHAT I BUILT
Focused work management, agent-ready
Boards and tasks that stay fast
Lists, cards, labels, due dates, checklists — the essentials, done well, without the sprawl that turns a board into a chore.
Automation without the tax
Move work forward with rules and templates — capabilities other tools gate behind their most expensive tier.
Native AI-chat integration
MCP integration with Claude, ChatGPT, and Gemini — so an assistant can create boards, move cards, and set due dates directly from a conversation.
Pricing that respects the team
Built for small teams first — no upsell maze, no paywall in front of the features you actually need to run work.
THE DIFFERENTIATOR
The whole tool is drivable by an assistant
kanNINJA ships an MCP integration to the major AI chat platforms, so an agent can create boards, move cards, assign work, and set due dates as a first-class workflow. The point isn't “AI features” sprinkled on top — it's that coordinating a whole project by talking to an assistant just works.
