Planelo

Description

Planelo is an idea-first project management app for people with more ideas than organization. Instead of forcing every thought to start as a ticket, Planelo lets users capture a vague idea first and promote it to a project only when it is ready, acting as a bridge between a notes app and tools like Jira.

Ideas can hold rich context, including attachments, photos, and voice memos, so nothing gets lost. Planelo is API-first: everything is accessible through a REST API, letting users build custom capture tools, sync with tools like Linear, or create their own dashboards and automations.

A free Starter plan covers up to two active projects with unlimited ideas and basic sync, while a Pro plan adds unlimited projects, API access for CI/CD, a share extension with an offline queue, and priority support. Subscriptions are handled through the Apple App Store, and the app is available on iOS and Android, with a web version and knowledge base covering setup, security, and the API.
