Hey Product Hunters
Novakin here,
Third time launching here. First two times
the product wasn't ready. This time it is.
Here's what's different:
THE CORE PROBLEM WE SOLVED
Agencies and freelancers spend hours translating
a messy client brief into something their team
can actually execute from. We eliminated that
entirely. Paste any client email or upload a doc.
Plannex reads it and builds your entire project
canvas automatically. Parallel workstreams,
approval gates, revision loops, client portal.
From one messy email.
WHAT SHIPPED IN THIS VERSION
The Canvas, not a list, not a board. A living
visual map of how your project actually flows.
Nodes connect, gates fire, clients get updated.
Everything in one place.
Gate Nodes, logic nodes that watch multiple
upstream nodes and unlock downstream work
automatically when conditions are met. Set the
rule: all must be done, any one, or X of Y.
Nothing moves forward until the right conditions
are met. No manual follow-up.
Client Pulse, scheduled client snapshots
delivered automatically via email, Slack, or
Discord. No login required on the client side.
Your client stays informed without you lifting
a finger.
Delivery Suite, the complete client-facing
layer. Status overview, approvals, deliverables,
reports, timeline, and the client portal.
Everything your client needs to see, nothing
they don't.
Project Insights, revision rate, approval
velocity, budget burn, estimated vs actual time,
timeline health. One screen. Full picture. The
data that actually changes decisions.
Issue Pinning, flag an issue on any node without
changing its status. Plannex highlights every
downstream node affected and lets you decide how
to handle each one. The flow history stays intact.
Nothing gets lost.
AI Brief Intake, paste a client email, free
text, or upload a .md, .pdf, or .docx. Plannex
reads it, extracts workstreams, identifies
approval chains, and builds your entire canvas
automatically.
List View and Phase View, same nodes, different
lenses. Sort by assignee, status, due date. See
everything collapsed into phases with completion
at a glance. Bulk update nodes!
Countdown Node, connect it to a deadline or set
it manually. Multiple warning phases, upcoming,
due soon, overdue. Sits on your canvas so everyone
sees it.
AND TODAY WE ARE ANNOUNCING EXTENSIONS
Plannex soon will publiush Extensions Marketplace.
Every extension is free, locked only by plan,
never by additional charge.
No add-ons. No marketplace fees. No surprises.
Coming soon in Extensions:
Company Hub, manage clients as first-class
objects with a unified portal across all their
projects
Finance, revenue and expense tracking per
project
Goals & OKRs, connect company objectives to
project work
Clients CRM, client database and deal
pipeline
Blueprint Instances, sub-canvases for
parallel teams under one project
WHY EXTENSIONS WORK THIS WAY
Most platforms charge per seat AND per
integration AND per add-on. Your bill grows
every time you need something new.
Plannex is different. Every extension is
included in your plan. Install what you need,
uninstall what you don't. Your data is always
preserved. No hidden costs.
THE HONEST PART
I built Plannex as a solo developer at first because I
couldn't find a tool that handled the full agency
workflow, brief to delivery, without switching
between 4 different products. It's still early.
There are rough edges. But the core is solid and
getting sharper every week.
If you run client projects, or freelance try it.
If something doesn't work the way you expect,
tell me here in the comments. I read everything
and ship fast.

The idea is promising i like the pictures representing the application.
UI is very confusing and non cohesion, no documentation , all i could do is create a node in flowy very confusing.
I have doubt that it is AI generated due to the UI being all over the place main site and application do not follow same structure, documentation on how to use is missing.
We are moving away from what the old photos represented. I already applied for a second launch where the current state will be represented. Keep in mind it's still early access so, documentation is coming along with videos. The reason why there is no solid documentation as of now, we are still figuring some things out. About the UI, I can agree. It can be a lot better, the main issue is lack of budget and designers so, it's more like using tailwind generic styles and putting more effort on the functionality. Design will be improved as soon as we can, that's for sure.
You can create a node/task (you can use it to brainstorm as well), you can connect bitBucket version control for now, you can connect your repo, create branches, create PR's, comment, add checklists, attachments, links, assign users, add reviewers, add standalone applications to the node like survey that can be used to collect data both in-house and public, you can invite other people and collab real-time. You can fully project manage, at least for small or medium size teams for now. This is some of the stuff you can do. I personally invite you to take a deeper look.
