Dart

Dart is a workplace for managing projects alongside AI agents, with handoffs and results tied to the work. People set direction, while lead agents can break goals into tasks and coordinate specialist agents. Teams can use list, board, roadmap, and calendar layouts, plus subtasks, blockers, dependencies, sprint management, and time tracking. AI features include task execution, subtask generation, project planning, duplicate detection, and filling task properties from natural language. Integrations include Slack, Discord, GitHub, ChatGPT, Claude, Google, Notion, Jira, Microsoft Project, Zapier, n8n, and Pipedream. An API, libraries, and command line interface support custom integrations and workflow automation. Dart says it meets SOC 2 Type II requirements and complies with SOC 2, GDPR, and CCPA. It states that data is encrypted in transit and at rest, and that its AI providers do not store customer data or use it to train models. Personal is free for up to four teammates; Premium costs $8 per teammate per month, and Business costs $12 per teammate per month.

Dart combines project organization with tools for coordinating AI agents and automating workflows. The free plan offers a starting point for small teams, while larger teams may need a paid tier.

Dart suits teams that want project management tools alongside AI agents, from product and engineering to marketing, sales, design, and operations. The free Personal plan is limited to four teammates.

Dart is a project workspace that brings task planning and management together with AI agents that can coordinate work. It is best suited to teams that want AI involved in organizing and executing projects, not just drafting task details. Its free plan covers up to four teammates; larger teams start at $8 per teammate per month, billed annually.

Overview

Dart combines familiar project structures with a model in which lead agents can break goals into tasks and coordinate specialist agents. People set direction and can step in when useful, keeping the agents’ work connected to the team’s projects. That approach may suit organizations exploring agent-assisted workflows, but teams that simply need straightforward task tracking may find the added AI emphasis unnecessary.

Its project-management toolkit spans list, board, roadmap, and calendar layouts, with subtasks, blockers, dependencies, sprint management, and time tracking. The breadth supports both everyday task coordination and longer-range planning. Dart also includes proofing and approvals, creative briefs, workload planning, and asset versioning, making it relevant to creative teams as well as product and engineering, marketing, sales, customer success, design, people and HR, and operations.

Key features

Project organization and AI assistance

Dart’s AI features cover task execution, subtask generation, project planning, duplicate detection, and filling task properties from natural-language input. These tools reach beyond writing assistance into project setup and task work. Their value will depend on whether a team wants AI embedded in its workflow; Dart also lets people set the direction and intervene, rather than presenting agents as a replacement for team oversight.

Integrations and customization

Integrations include Slack, Discord, GitHub, ChatGPT, Claude, Google, Notion, Jira, Microsoft Project, Zapier, n8n, and Pipedream. Dart also offers an API, libraries, and a command-line interface for building integrations and automating workflows. That combination gives teams several routes to connect Dart with existing tools, while custom integration work may be more than a small team needs.

Security and compliance

Dart says it meets SOC 2 Type II requirements and regularly conducts penetration tests and independent audits of its technology stack and security controls. It states that data is encrypted in transit with TLS 1.2 and at rest with AES-256, and that customer data is not stored or used by its AI providers to train models. It also says it is compliant with SOC 2, GDPR, and CCPA.

Pricing

Dart is freemium, with a free Personal plan and paid plans billed per teammate per month. The free tier is useful for a small team evaluating the workspace, but its four-teammate cap rules it out for larger groups.

• Personal — free: Billed $0 per teammate per month for up to four teammates. It includes unlimited tasks and docs, AI agents, AI task execution, AI reporting, AI task property filling, AI subtask generation, and ChatGPT and Claude integrations. This is the entry point for small teams that can work within the seat limit; it does not include the expanded collaboration and administration features of paid tiers.
• Premium — $8 a month: Billed $8 per teammate per month. It allows unlimited teammates and includes everything in Personal, plus AI chat, AI roadmap planning, AI brainstorming, admin and guest roles, custom statuses and properties, forms, and Slack, Discord, and GitHub integrations. It is the practical step up for growing teams that need more seats, workflow customization, or those integrations.
• Business — $12 a month: Billed $12 per teammate per month. It includes everything in Premium, plus SAML SSO and SCIM, public views, charts and analytics, granular access management, customizable dashboards, priority support, and a dedicated success manager. The additional controls and support make this the better fit for organizations with more demanding administration needs.

Personal and Premium list a one-day support SLA. Business adds priority support and a dedicated success manager. Dart says its Mac app requires macOS 11 or higher, and its Windows app is for devices running Windows 10/11.

Platforms

Dart is available on Android, iOS, Linux, macOS, web, and Windows, and offers an API. Its Mac and Windows apps have the stated operating-system requirements above.

Who it's for

Dart is a strong candidate for teams that want project management and AI-agent coordination in one workspace, particularly when they need multiple planning views, task relationships, and integrations with existing collaboration or development tools. Its use cases span product and engineering, marketing, sales, customer success, design, people and HR, and operations. A team that does not want AI involved in task planning or execution, or that needs only basic task lists, may be better served by a narrower tool.

Pros and cons

• Pro: Multiple views, dependencies, blockers, sprints, and time tracking support different kinds of project coordination in one workspace.
• Pro: AI can assist with execution and planning as well as task creation, while people retain direction and oversight.
• Pro: The Personal plan includes unlimited tasks and docs, but is limited to four teammates.
• Pro: Business includes SAML SSO and SCIM, granular access management, priority support, and a dedicated success manager for organizations that need stronger controls.
• Con: Teams exceeding four people must move to a paid plan, starting at $8 per teammate per month.
• Con: The free plan lacks the Slack, Discord, and GitHub integrations included with Premium, so teams relying on those connections need a paid tier.
• Con: Dart’s agent-centered approach may be unnecessary for teams that want conventional project tracking without AI in their workflow.

Alternatives

For a more specialized creative workflow, consider Celtx, whose free plan is limited to one project and includes cloud-based script editors and real-time collaboration. Frame.io is another option when review and media workflows are the priority: its free plan allows up to two members and two projects, with 2GB storage and transcription and captions.

Teams looking for a general work-management alternative can compare Wrike, whose free plan offers unlimited users, 2 GB storage per account, and 200 active tasks per account. For proof-focused review, Ziflow has a free plan with unlimited proofs and reviewers, two users, 2GB storage, and one workflow stage.

CreativeOps Tracker may suit an individual seeking timesheets and leave tracking: its Individual plan is $79.99 a year for one user and includes unlimited projects. For team-size-based custom subscriptions, Streamtime is an alternative, with annual plans charged at a lower rate. ftrack Studio is a paid alternative with planning, scheduling and tracking, interactive media review, project reports, and an API; its Studio plan is $30 a month, billed monthly. Cirkus is another paid option, with a Pro plan at $35 a month billed monthly and annual payment options by contacting sales.

Verdict

Choose Dart if your team wants structured project management alongside AI agents that can help plan and carry out work, with integrations and paid-tier administration to support a larger organization. Its main trade-off is the four-person ceiling on the free plan and a workflow built around AI; teams that want conventional task tracking or need more than four seats at no cost should look elsewhere.
