Tired of feature factories and top-down management?
Kitemaker is the only product development tool built to manage the work and not the workers.
How it works
1
Plan
Other tools primarily track tasks or issues. In Kitemaker, you will track work items representing features, fixes, and experiments you plan to ship to your users.
2
Collaborate
There will no longer be a separation between one-pagers/PRDs/specs and where you track work, since you write these directly in the work item.
3
Break down
Don't spread tasks across tools. Break work items down into tasks in Kitemaker and have product, design, and engineers work in the same tool.
4
Deliver
While your team works in various tools, discussions and activities will be connected in Kitemaker, providing a single place for all product discussions and updates.
Take a quick tour
Improve your process
A work item in Kitemaker combines your specs/PRDs/one-pagers with the related tasks, discussions, and activities. All in one virtual space.
“ We were using Google docs for our design, but that’s divorced from the engineering side. Within Kitemaker we’re having rich conversations around the work itself which is a big differentiator. ”

Co-CEO at City Innovate
Plan, prioritize, and execute together
Create roadmaps and plans directly connected to your delivery process, resulting in a deeper product understanding within the team.
“ We’re using Kitemaker as a planning tool for what we’re going to do, in what order, in order to make quick progress given the constraints we have. ”

Collaboration across roles and tools
Never miss a relevant discussion again. Kitemaker connects with your other tools and makes it easy to stay on top of conversations and activities, regardless of where they happen.
“ Having comments and activities from GitHub, Slack, and Figma visible in work items is a game changer. It makes it much easier to get everyone on the same page. ”
Jan Kalthöfer
CTO at Type Studio
