A free online kanban board — actually free
Most “free” kanban tools are trials, ad-supported, or cripple the free tier until you upgrade. Simpleban’s free plan is the whole product for two people: every feature, unlimited boards, forever. The only limit is team size.
- Unlimited boards, columns, and cards
- Real-time sharing with one teammate
- Markdown notes and comments on cards
- Installable app that works offline
- Light and dark themes
- No ads, no credit card, no trial clock
Why it stays fast when free tools get slow
Simpleban does less on purpose. There are no labels, due-date engines, dashboards, or plugins to load — just columns and cards with optimistic updates, so every action lands instantly and the board opens in under a second. Changes sync live between you and your teammate, and the installable app keeps working offline.
Questions, answered
- Is Simpleban's free plan actually free?
- Yes — free forever for two people (you plus one teammate), with every feature, unlimited boards and cards, and no credit card. It is not a trial.
- What's the catch?
- The free plan is capped at two people. Paid flat-price plans for bigger teams are coming later; nothing you use today gets taken away.
- Do I need to install anything?
- No. Simpleban runs in the browser. If you want, install it as an app (PWA) on your phone or desktop — it then works offline too.
- Can I use it without an account?
- You can try the live demo board on the homepage without signing up. Creating an account (email + password, 10 seconds) saves your boards and syncs them across devices.
