Why Chimedeck
Your task management tool
shouldn't punish growth
Most SaaS task managers charge per seat. Chimedeck decouples cost from headcount. You only pay for infrastructure.
No per-seat pricing. Ever.
Add 5 or 500 team members, your bill stays the same.
Fully open-source (AGPL-3.0)
Read, fork, extend, audit. No black boxes. Full source on GitHub.
Self-host or managed cloud
Run on your own servers or let us manage it. Switch anytime.
Multiple board views
Kanban, Table, Timeline, Calendar. All views on all plans.
AI-agent connectivity
MCP support — use Chimedeck as an operational surface for AI agents.
CLI and API access
Manage tasks from your terminal and build integrations via REST API.
