Client project kanban template

The board freelancers actually need: your work in one lane, the things you're waiting on in another, and a client who can see all of it live instead of emailing you for status.

How to use this template

Keep every deliverable as a card. When something needs client input, hand the card to them — it shows up as “waiting on you” on their board. Cards only reach Done when both of you agree they're done.

Built for a duo? See Simpleban for freelancers. Every board syncs live between two people, works offline, and supports handing cards to each other.

Questions, answered

Does my client need a paid account to use this template?
No. Simpleban is free forever for two people — you and your client. They join with an invite link and never pay.
Can my client see my other projects?
Only boards you share. On the free plan you work with one person, so your client sees the boards you share with your team; keep anything else private.
