## One workspace, four places to meet

### Write the spec

One page per feature, and its to-dos become tasks.

### Run the board

A priority, an owner and acceptance criteria on every card.

### Talk beside it

Paste a task into chat and it shows its live status.

### Catch up

Mentions, messages and assigned work, one line each.

## Know what ships, and what holds it up.

One page for each ship date, with what is blocked or late one click away.

Due dates from every board land on one calendar, beside your open tasks.
