I’ve been building Ventasso: a project management platform for dev teams that hate project management platforms.
The whole idea started because I got tired of switching between tools that all do the same 80% and still can’t tell when my branch was merged.
Also Atlassian/JIRA are just really user-unfriendly and not dev-focused at all in some areas. And laggy as f***.
So I built one that actually connects tasks, branches, and pull requests. Your work closes itself on merge. Simple as that.
Of course this is still a WIP but it's got a decent feature-set so far.
Backend’s based on my own open source PHP framework (BaseAPI), frontend is React + Vite + MUI. So REST API + React TS.
No funny microservice business. Just a clean API and an interface that doesn’t feel like punishment. It also has a API Documentation subpage documenting all public endpoints with API Token support. In case your CI/CD needs that. :)
What’s in it so far:
- Boards (obviously)
- Docs and Canvas (confluence similar MD pages + whiteboards for planning)
- Automations (eg. “task.created → set status”)
- GitHub & Bitbucket integration (branches, PRs, sync jobs)
- Presence, notifications, audit logs, etc.
Right now I’m testing the onboarding flow and general UX.
If you build software, manage a team, or just enjoy breaking things I dare you to take it for a spin and tell me what feels off. Be nice though :)
Also not sure about the pricing so far, settled on $5 per user per month for the team plan.
Also have an iOS app with near feature-parity to web that's in TestFlight right now (with notifications etc).

Honest feedback appreciated. If you hate it, tell me why.
If you like it, tell me what made you not close the tab haha
