What problem does it solve?
Kanban helps teams stop chaotic multitasking and hidden work by visualizing workflow, limiting work-in-progress (WIP), and revealing bottlenecks so delivery becomes predictable and continuous improvement can occur.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Visual workflow mapping: Turn implicit processes into an explicit Kanban board with stages and policies.
- WIP limits & flow management: Set and enforce WIP limits to reduce context switching and lower lead time.
- Metrics-driven optimization: Use lead time, cycle time, throughput, and Little's Law to identify bottlenecks and prioritize improvements.
- Use Case: A software team reduces average delivery time by auditing their board, lowering WIP limits, and reallocating capacity at the review stage.
Quick Start
Map your team's stages on a board, set initial WIP limits based on team size, and run one measurement cycle to identify the top bottleneck and recommended actions.
