Private work in progress.
Right beside your boards.

How your team actually works.
From 9am to end-of-day.
Three moments carry your workday: what is on your plate this morning, where the execution happens, and automatic proof of what got finished.
Morning Focus
Open one screen, not six boards.
Home brings together your Up next queue, overdue work, today’s deadlines, and the coming week across every project. Your week groups every dated card and checklist item by urgency.
You start the day working on priorities instead of hunting across browser tabs.

The standup writes itself.
Work Done is an automatic, attributed history of what moved: cards completed, checklist items checked off, and cards advanced between lists. Filter by day, week, or up to 60 days back.
Perfect for standups, client check-ins, and every time “what changed?” would otherwise cost a meeting.

Bring your work with you.
In under 60 seconds.
Switching project systems shouldn't mean losing history or manually rebuilding boards from scratch.
Import boards, cards, lists, members, custom fields, comments, and attachments with automated schema review.
Start with one real client project. We help map list structures, permissions, and workspace templates.
Import a CSV for cards and fields, then use the REST API or an assisted move when history and attachments matter too.
Before you start.
What is Kanera?
Kanera is a board-led work management tool. Each project gets a familiar board, and Home, Global Work, Up next, Portfolio, and Work Done show what is happening across all of them, so nobody has to open six boards to find out what is due.
How much does Kanera cost?
Free covers up to 4 organisation members, 3 active boards, and 3 active automations. Pro is $5 per user per month, or $49 per user per year with annual billing, and removes those limits.
Every new workspace starts with a 30-day Pro trial, and no card is required.
Can I use my own AI assistant?
Yes. Kanera does not run AI agents or ship a chatbot of its own. Claude, ChatGPT, Codex, Copilot, Cursor, and other MCP clients connect with scoped OAuth, and the CLI and TypeScript SDK cover agents that live in a terminal or your own code.
Every change an agent makes is labelled with its name, and the card shows a live chip while it works. Agent access is part of Pro and the trial, with no AI add-on or per-agent fee.
Does Kanera have a CLI or an MCP server?
Both. The official Kanera CLI is published on npm as @kanera/cli: install it with npm install --global @kanera/cli, or try it with npx @kanera/cli commands. It exposes every MCP tool as a shell command, so any terminal or coding agent can use Kanera without MCP configuration.
Kanera also runs a native MCP server at https://mcp.kanera.app/mcp, publishes a TypeScript SDK as @kanera/sdk, ships a Kanera plugin for Codex, and publishes a Kanera Agent Skill for Claude Code, Codex, and other agents. Running kanera setup claude installs the skill for Claude Code.
Can I self-host Kanera?
Yes. Kanera runs from one Docker Compose file on your own server, with the same features as hosted Pro and no Kanera licence fee. The source is available under Elastic License 2.0.
You take on updates, backups, mail, and monitoring. If nobody on the team can own that, hosted Pro is the better fit.
How do I move my work from Trello or another tool?
Trello boards import directly, and you review every list, label, member, and field mapping before anything is created. Other tools can come in through CSV import.
For a larger move, tell us what you use today and we will help plan the migration.
When is Kanera not the right fit?
If you need Gantt charts, dependency links, workload planning, time tracking, SAML or OIDC single sign-on, or a non-English interface, Kanera does not offer those today. The Who it is for page lists every case where another tool will serve you better.

your real work.
