Some feedback after opening the link, from the perspective of someone that has looked at, and in many cases used, lots of this type of software.

What problem are you solving? This is probably related to the lack of discussion of features.

What are you doing that other services in this space aren't doing?

Why should someone trust you with their data? Also, you want a lot of information that few people are going to give you without even knowing anything about your product beyond the tiny bit on the homepage. You'd be much better off providing a demo page.

There's no info about pricing.

Is anyone currently using it? Would someone signing up be nothing more than an unpaid bug finder?

Thanks for the feedback, I am solving the problem of project management software specifically for freelancers. I am trying to implement AI features into this tool. It is currently in the early stages of development and I am currently adding more features to adapt it to mobile. I am also integration more AI into the software, such as a feature for auto task priority. I can provide a demo page, this will take some time to implement though. The info about pricing is on the pricing page once you signed up, I can put pricing on the home page if this would make it easier. There is a free tier on sign up. I do not intend for the people signing up to be unpaid bug finders if you feel this is what is happenin. I mostly wanted people to use the service just to see what they think instead of using them to find bugs. Thanks again for your feedback.
Be super clear on why you want to add AI. Is it solving some specific problem better than a non-AI approach (like maybe a library of pattern matching where tasks like “Ask Jane…” or “Learn about…” bubble to the top)? Or, let’s be honest — we’re all friends here — do you just want an excuse to play with AI?
Project management software is a solution, not a problem. An example of a problem could be that freelancers are forgetting things, or don't have time to get their work done, or have trouble finding clients, etc
> Project management software is a solution, not a problem.

Yeah. I don't pay anyone for software, I pay them to get rid of a problem. One example from when I used to do more consulting was having to send information to the client securely. I didn't look for software, I looked for a way to do what I needed, and to do it in a way that met the client's needs.
