Agile project management made simple.

What's special about Acorn
Acorn is not your typical project management tool. Here are a few reasons why. 👇
Truly distributed collaboration
Acorn is built as a Holochain application, meaning it runs on decentralized peer-to-peer computing letting you manage projects without needing any servers or external hosting.
Intended Outcomes, not goals
Acorn simplifies project tracking with outcome-based management and a cyclical process, perfect for keeping distributed teams on the same page.
Smarter project management with Acorn
Acorn provides the sweet-spot combination of annotated and computed metadata to easily understand your project's details, make estimates accurately, and check your whole project's progress at a glance.
See your project your way
Acorn comes with different project views to match your focus. Use Map View for a big-picture outlook, Table View to zero in on tasks, and Priority View to keep your team aligned.
Who's Involved in Developing Acorn
Acorn was envisioned and prototyped (using a third party platform) by the Holochain core development team in 2018 to organize their own planning and execution process.
In August 2019 Sprillow undertook a design process and began building Acorn on Holochain and continues to today. In June 2022 the first major release of Acorn (Alpha) was published and it's currently in an Alpha testing phase.
Lightningrod Labs is the container for the continuous development of Acorn alongside some other projects powered by Holochain.
