Start a free kanban board in three steps
- Type what you're juggling in the box above, or start from a template: To do, Doing, Done, My week, Content, Project or Home and life.
- Watch Dilly, the built-in assistant, set up the lists and first cards. Drag cards between lists as you go.
- Save your boards when you want them on your phone and laptop. Until then there's nothing to sign up for.
What a free kanban board should give you
- Enough boards. One per project adds up quickly, so check the cap before you commit.
- Your own pace. Due dates that nag are a reason people drop boards. Kanduck says "Was Tue", not "overdue".
- It works where you do. Install it on your phone and keep working offline. Changes sync when you're back.
- A way out. History lets you roll a board back to any earlier point if a change goes wrong.

Questions
What is a kanban board?
A kanban board shows work as cards in columns, usually To do, Doing and Done. You move a card to the right as it progresses, so you can see at a glance what is waiting, what is in progress and what is finished.
Is there a free kanban board with no sign-up?
Yes. Kanduck lets you build and use boards without an account. When you want them on another device, you save them with Google, an email link or a passkey.
What should I watch for in a free kanban plan?
Caps on the number of boards, people or automations, small file limits, and whether the board view is on the free plan at all. The table above lists the numbers for the popular tools.
Is Kanduck really free?
Yes, for up to 10 people, with every feature. Past that, Team is $19 a month ($169 a year) for the whole workspace, however many people join. The built-in AI assistant, Dilly, has a daily cap per workspace, and you can switch it to your own model if you want no cap. See pricing.
Can I use a free kanban board for personal projects?
Yes. A board per project, a weekly board, or a home and life board all work well. Kanduck has repeating cards and a morning reminder for the recurring things.
