Big news from the Happen Software team today!
For over 15 years, we’ve built complex software and enterprise apps for our clients. But behind the scenes, keeping track of our own internal projects was never as seamless as we wanted it to be.
We tried all the tools out there. The simple ones fell apart when our work got complex. The powerful ones were bloated and required a week of setup. The open-source ones just lacked the polish we needed to run a real business.
We got tired of chasing progress updates every week. So, we built the tool we actually wanted to use.
Meet Kanera!
We’ve been quietly running our entire company on it for months, and today we’re opening it up to everyone. Kanera is a fast, polished workspace where planning, progress, and context live in one place.
What makes it different?
- Lighter, not heavier: More than a basic board, less than a bloated suite.
- Fast and Polished
- Assigned Work & Work Done: Easily see who is busy with what, and review what’s actually been completed.
- Automations & Custom Fields: Let the software do the chasing for you.
- Native AI (MCP) Support: Tools like Claude and Codex can securely interact directly with your workspace.
- Instant Trello Import: Bring your existing boards over in seconds.
- Source-Available: No black boxes. You can see the code that runs your workspace.
We didn’t build an "everything app" - we built a tool that does work management genuinely well, and then gets out of your way.
We’d love for you to bring a real project over and see how it feels.
