I've been using Dart for months now, and it is my #1 tool for managing my projects! Plus, the user experience is crisp and it's a pleasure to make, track, and then close out tasks :)

I really enjoy using the app - it has replaced my other kanban apps because of the AI features. Auto fill properties and generate subtasks are a massive boon. I look forward to using Dart more!

I've tried dozens of task management apps, and Dart is by far my favorite. You can run every feature via keyboard shortcuts, deeply customize your layout, and easily separate work and personal tasks.

We use Dart for both team and personal tasks, and it ties with Slack as our most-frequently used app.

David Paffenholz
CEO & Co-Founder

Dart's made it really easy to organize and manage tasks while capturing context.

It's naturally integrated into our workflows and has really helped with productivity. We used to use iNotes/OneNote but Dart’s speed, shortcuts, and intuitive flow had us using it daily within a week of onboarding.

Atyab Bhatti
CEO & Cofounder

I've witnessed firsthand the transformative impact of Dart's task management tool on our organization. Its integration of generative AI has been a game-changer, significantly boosting my team's productivity by streamlining administrative tasks.

Dart's continuous evolution excites me, and I highly recommend it to any organization seeking to minimize administrative overhead while maintaining detailed task tracking, including durations, dependencies, and resource allocation.

Chris Howe
CEO

As someone who has worked on multiple projects with distributed teams, I understand the challenges of project management. It's great to hear that Dart was designed to make this process easier for teams through its innovative use of AI.

Ashley Smith
Graphic Designer

Dart has been an impressive project management tool, offering a seamless and beautiful experience that fits perfectly for various needs. Its user-friendly design and efficient document handling make it a pleasure to use, prompting me to transition all my work onto it.

The tool's excellence has led me to recommend it to many friends, affirming its suitability and effectiveness for a wide range of use cases.

Tejas Ewing
Screenwriter

Dart is 10x faster and cleaner than any other way we've found to track our work. Dart has been super quick-to-setup and incredibly fast for us to use. Other task managers had too much of overhead.

Craig Bonnoit
CTO

THANK YOU!!! The chatgpt integration is amazing. I gave it enough context and prompting that it generated for me the exact daily plan for the next 90 days of building my startup MVP (with scary accuracy), and then Dart just created all the tasks for me. Thank you for this amazing and time saving capability.

This just saved me probably an entire weeks worth of headache and trying to get my self organized let alone actually get the work done.

Ahmad Taleb
Product Manager

I’ve tried many other project management platforms and have always been frustrated by the overhead that comes with even the simplest of actions. With Dart though, creating, organizing, and planning tasks takes me a fraction of the time, especially with Dart’s easy-to-use keyboard shortcuts. The AI tools are also really powerful, and Dart keeps adding more and more capability there. Excited to see this keep growing!

Luke Asperger
Engineering Manager

Dart has changed the way I plan my work. With nearly 15 years of work in the Human Resources field, project management and prioritization is routinely the area that HR teams struggle with most.

Dart AI is the springboard I never knew I needed. The built-in AI capabilities make organizing projects, prioritizing work, and establishing robust documentation practices more manageable and allow for immense creativity. I'm able to collaborate with co-workers in ways not possible without the AI automation tools Dart provides. I'd recommend Dart to anyone needing help with their professional and personal project management needs.

Blake Hudson
HR Manager

Dart is amazing! It’s much simpler and easier to use than other PM tools. The load time is impressively fast, and the keyboard shortcuts enhance productivity a lot. The UX is perfectly balanced, utilizing space and typography effectively to display the right amount of information on each page. Dart is a joy to use compared to other tools I’ve dreaded

Frequently asked Questions

Still not sure? Let us explain couple of things.

Can I delete a custom property once it’s created on the platform?

You can remove or hide any property you no longer need. Hiding a property clears it from active view without disrupting other settings. This helps you keep workflows clean as they evolve.

How many custom properties can I create in Dart?

You can create as many custom properties as your workflow requires. Dart doesn't impose artificial limits on the number of custom properties you can add to your tasks, allowing you to structure your project information exactly how you need it.

How does AI property filling work with custom properties?

When you create custom properties in Dart, the AI can automatically fill them based on the context of your task titles and descriptions. Simply create a task using natural language, and Dart AI will intelligently populate relevant custom properties without manual data entry.

What types of custom properties can I create with DartAI?

You can create text fields, date pickers, user assignments, and checkboxes. These options cover most common workflow needs. Together, they make your task data more structured and useful.

Can I use custom properties across different projects?

Yes, custom properties are available across all your projects in Dart. Once you create a custom property, you can use it consistently throughout your workspace, ensuring standardization across different teams and projects.

What types of data can I store in custom properties?

Dart supports multiple data types for custom properties, including dates, user assignments, text fields, and checkboxes. This flexibility allows you to capture any type of task information relevant to your workflow, from deadlines to team member responsibilities.

How do I add a new custom property to a task in DartAI?

You can create a fully custom property from the settings page. Choose the property type you need, such as date, user, text, or checkbox, and add it instantly. Once created, it becomes available for use across your workflow.

Can I hide custom properties I'm not actively using?

Yes, Dart allows you to hide properties whenever needed. This helps keep your workspace clean and focused on the information that matters most at any given time, while still preserving the data for when you need it again.

How do I edit an existing custom property in DartAI?

You can manage existing properties from the property panel. Adjust their details or hide them when they’re no longer relevant. Changes apply across your team to keep workflows consistent.

Is it possible to track task history with your platform’s custom properties?

Yes, you can enable task history properties like created and updated timestamps. These give visibility into when tasks were added or last changed. It provides a simple audit trail without extra manual tracking.

Can I change the status categories in my custom status properties?

Yes, you can fully customize status options and organize them into categories like unstarted, started, blocked, and finished. This allows you to design status workflows that match your team's specific processes and terminology.

How do real-time updates for your custom properties work?

With integrations enabled, properties such as status or dates update automatically. For example, if a linked app changes a task state, it reflects instantly in Dart. This ensures every system stays synchronized.
