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.
