See the big picture, ship the details
Kanban boards, list views, and project spaces — organized by category, synced in real-time.
Drag it across. Drop a card in another column and its status changes with it.
See work the way you think
Switch between Kanban boards, list views, and calendar views — per project, per person. The same tasks, surfaced differently.
Kanban boards
Drag tasks across status columns. Each project gets its own board with customizable columns — To Do, In Progress, Review, Done, or whatever fits your process.
List view
See all tasks in a compact sortable list. Filter by status, priority, or assignee. Ideal for triage and quick scanning.
Calendar view
Tasks with due dates appear on a calendar. See workload by day, week, or month — and spot scheduling conflicts before they happen.
Multiple views per project
Switch between Kanban, list, and calendar without losing context. Each view reflects the same underlying tasks in real time.
Structure that scales
Categories, drag-drop ordering, favorites, and archive — keep your sidebar clean as your workspace grows from 5 to 500 projects.
Categories & grouping
Organize projects into named categories. Engineering, Design, Marketing — group however makes sense for your team.
Drag-drop reordering
Reorder projects and categories by dragging. Changes sync in real time across all workspace members via Pusher events.
Favorites & pinning
Pin your most-used projects to the top of the sidebar. Personal favorites so everyone sees their own priority list.
Archive & restore
Archive completed projects to keep the sidebar focused. Restore them anytime from the Trash — nothing is permanently lost.
Work together, not in silos
Real-time sync, role-based access, built-in chat, and shared files — everything your team needs to collaborate inside a project.
Real-time sync
Every change broadcasts instantly via WebSockets. Drag a card on your board and your teammate sees it move on theirs — no refresh needed.
Role-based access
Owners and Admins see all projects. Members see only the projects they are assigned to. Permissions enforced at the API and UI level.
Project-level chat
Every project gets a dedicated chat channel. Discuss tasks, share updates, and make decisions without leaving the project.
Shared files
Upload files directly into a project. Documents, images, and assets are organized per-project and accessible from the Files tab.
Make each project yours
Custom icons, colors, tab layouts, and templates — configure each project to match how your team actually works.
Custom project icons
Pick an emoji or icon for each project. Visual cues in the sidebar make it faster to find the right project at a glance.
Color coding
Assign colors to projects for quick visual identification. Colors carry through the sidebar, breadcrumbs, and search results.
Tab management
Each project can show or hide tabs — Tasks, Files, Pages, Chat, Links. Only surface what the team needs.
Project templates
Duplicate existing projects as templates. Pre-configured columns, tabs, and settings — ready for the next sprint, campaign, or launch.
What you won't need anymore
Workel Projects replaces standalone project management tools. Here's what your team can drop — and what you'll save.

Projects connect to everything in Workel
Because projects live in the same workspace as your chat, tasks, files, and calendar — everything is linked. No context-switching between tools.
Auto-created chat channels
Every project automatically gets a dedicated chat channel. The assigned team is already there.
Tasks live inside projects
Tasks are organized on project boards. Move a task across columns and it updates everywhere — dashboard, calendar, search.
Files attached to projects
Upload files to a project and they appear in the workspace Files tab too. One source of truth, zero duplicates.
Events sync to Calendar
Project events and task due dates show on the workspace calendar. See everything your team is working on in one view.
Questions about Projects Straight answers, before you start.
Yes. Workel imports from Trello, Asana, ClickUp, monday.com and Notion, using each tool's export file. Projects, columns, tasks, descriptions, due dates and priorities come over, and assignees are matched to people already in your workspace. Comments and attachments don't. An owner or admin runs it from Settings, on any plan. On Max and Team, we can also do the move for you, free: ask through support.
Up to 3, and archived projects count toward them. Each one holds 3 tabs, Overview and To-do included. Pro, Max, Team and Lifetime have no limit on either.
Board, list and calendar. The calendar can show a month, a week, a day or an agenda. There's no timeline (Gantt) view yet.
The people you add to it, plus your workspace's owners and admins. A private project shows up only for the people you add, though owners and admins can still open it with a link.
Yes. Add, rename, recolor, reorder, hide or delete columns, and pick the one that means done. New projects start with To Do, In Progress and Completed.
