A visual project planning app for work with moving parts.

Use Sylph's visual project planning canvas to map tasks, notes, dependencies, deadlines, and next actions in one calm workspace.

Sylph Task Canvas with connected planning nodes, project folders, and task context

Connected planning nodes

Create nodes for goals, tasks, source material, and checkpoints so the project becomes visible before it becomes rigid.

Synced planning views

Move between Canvas, Kanban, and List views without rebuilding the same project in separate tools.

Task context in place

Keep due dates, status, priority, notes, and subtasks close to the shape of the plan.

Why it matters

Built for planning that has context.

Why it exists

Plan before the list hardens.

Most planning tools ask you to commit to a list, board, or calendar before the shape of the work is clear. Sylph starts with the canvas, so you can see the moving parts, connect dependencies, and understand the plan before choosing the next view.

How it stays organized

One plan, multiple views.

When a task changes status, priority, due date, or subtasks, that context stays connected across Canvas, Kanban, and List views. The app is designed around one source of truth instead of several parallel planning surfaces.

How people use it

Switch modes without losing context.

Use the visual canvas for strategy, Kanban for flow, List view for fast review, and project folders to keep separate goals from bleeding into each other.

Questions

Clear answers for comparison.

What is a visual project planning app?

A visual project planning app helps you arrange work spatially instead of only listing tasks. Sylph uses a Task Canvas so you can connect goals, tasks, notes, and dependencies before switching into Kanban or List views.

Can Sylph replace a Kanban board?

Yes. Sylph keeps task records synced across Canvas, Kanban, and List views, so changing a task in one view updates the same task everywhere else.
