Free Online Kanban Board

A Kanban board is a visual project management tool that helps you organize work into columns representing different stages of completion — typically "To Do", "In Progress", and "Done". Originally developed by Toyota for manufacturing, Kanban has become the most popular agile workflow management method used by software teams, freelancers, and individuals worldwide.

Our free Kanban board works entirely in your browser with no signup required. Create multiple boards, add custom columns, move cards with drag-and-drop, set priorities and due dates, and export your data at any time. All your boards are saved locally in your browser — completely private and always accessible.

How to Use the Kanban Board

  1. 1

    Create a board

    Click "New Board" and give it a name (e.g., "Work Projects", "Website Redesign", "Personal Goals"). You can create as many boards as you need.

  2. 2

    Add columns

    The default columns are To Do, In Progress, and Done. Add custom columns like "Review", "Blocked", or "Testing" to match your specific workflow.

  3. 3

    Create cards

    Click the + button in any column to add a task card. Give each card a title, description, priority level (low/medium/high/urgent), and optionally a due date and labels.

  4. 4

    Move cards with drag-and-drop

    Drag cards between columns as work progresses. This visual movement gives you an immediate sense of workflow and progress across all tasks.

  5. 5

    Manage and filter

    Use the search and filter features to find cards by priority, due date, or label. Export your data as JSON for backup.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is my Kanban data saved?
Yes. All boards and cards are automatically saved to your browser's localStorage. Your data persists between sessions as long as you use the same browser and don't clear browser storage. Use the export feature to back up your boards as JSON files.
Can I use this Kanban board on mobile?
Yes. The board is fully responsive and works on phones and tablets. Drag-and-drop works with touch gestures on mobile devices, though a larger screen provides a better experience for complex boards.
What is the WIP limit and should I use it?
WIP (Work In Progress) limits cap the number of cards allowed in a column at once. Setting a WIP limit of 2-3 for your "In Progress" column prevents multitasking overload and exposes bottlenecks.
How is a Kanban board different from a to-do list?
A to-do list is a flat, ordered list of tasks. A Kanban board adds visual workflow stages, showing not just what needs to be done but where each task is in the process — making bottlenecks and workload distribution immediately visible.
Is this Kanban tool free for commercial use?
Yes, completely free for personal and commercial use with no signup, no subscription, and no usage limits.

Kanban vs. Scrum vs. To-Do Lists

Kanban is a continuous flow system with no fixed sprints — work is pulled when capacity is available. Scrum uses time-boxed sprints with ceremonies like standups and retrospectives. Simple to-do lists lack visual workflow representation. For individuals and small teams without strict agile practices, Kanban is the most flexible and immediately useful approach.
