New to Repsona and work management? Repsona is easy to use. Here’s a simple guide to get started.
You might be surprised by the number of menus when you first open Repsona. Don’t worry! To begin with, you only need the "Task list".
Repsona is simple and easy to understand. Let’s start with the basics.
## How to work with Repsona
1. Create a task
2. Assign an assignee
3. Work on the task
4. When you’re done, set the status to "Done"
That’s it!
## Create a task
You can create a task from the Task list using the + button.
Enter a title to create a task. A good naming tip is to use the imperative form.
Write the details under the task name. Clarify what needs to be done to consider this task "finished".
Click the "Create" button to create the task.
## Assign an assignee
When you have a task, assign an "assignee"—the person responsible for the task.
If there’s a due date, set it. "Ball" indicates the person temporarily holding the task. You can leave it blank at first or set it to the same person as the assignee.
## Work on the task
The assignee should move the task forward. You may temporarily hand it off to someone else. In that case, set them as the "ball" and contact them.
You can contact them in the comments section at the bottom of the task screen. Mention their username in a comment and your teammate will be notified.
Communicate and move your tasks forward step by step.
## When you’re done, set it to "Done"
Finished the task? Review the details and, when complete, change the "Status" to "Done".
## Congratulations! Your first task is complete!
Even work that seems big and endless can be completed by breaking it down and setting due dates. For a large project where the goal isn’t yet clear, split it into smaller pieces and make a plan.
Don’t worry if breaking it down is difficult. Start with a rough, high-level to-do list and gradually split items into smaller tasks—it will grow into a detailed plan.
We hope your project is smooth and enjoyable!

## Help Center: What is a Repsona space?
URL: https://repsona.com/help/articles/002001000-space
Markdown: https://repsona.com/help/articles/002001000-space.md
What is a Repsona space? Let’s look at the differences between spaces, projects, and tasks to get the big picture.
## Space > Project > Task
The largest unit in Repsona is a "space." Teammates join a space as "members." Pricing plans apply at the space level.
## Projects and tasks
When you’re ready to start new work, create a "project" in your space.
Set the project name and purpose, and select the members who will work on it together. If some members haven’t joined the space yet, invite them first.
Create "tasks" in the project, set an assignee and due date, and move the work forward.
## Features per project
Each project has its own Gantt charts, status Kanban boards, and more. Select the project you want to manage and create a Gantt chart there.
On the Free plan, you can create one project. With the Standard plan, you can create unlimited projects and use cross-project views.

| All | All |
## How to work with Repsona
1. Create a task
2. Assign a person
3. Work on the task
4. When you’re done, mark it "Done"
That’s it!
Let's take a closer look at the methods and features for that.
## Select a project
Manage tasks in your project. First, select the project you want to use from the "Please select a project" dropdown menu.
Click "Task List" from the "Project Menu".
## Create a task
You can create a task from the task list > + button.
Click the "Create" button to create a task.
### Title
Enter a clear, action-oriented title. Using the imperative form works well. Titles like "About XX" obscure the goal and are not recommended.
### Details
On a new line, describe the task details. Clarify what must be true to consider the task "finished." Bullet points are also recommended.
It may be helpful to include the reasons for the task, background context, and the benefits of completing it.
Use this area for task details. Don’t write messages to specific members here—use the comments section for conversation.
### You can write in Markdown
You can use Markdown in details and comments. Markdown is a simple text-based notation that lets you structure your document with bold, italics, headings, and more.
### Checklists (checkboxes)
If you create a checklist with Markdown, you can track progress on small items inside a task as you check them off. Create a checklist by writing:
```
[x] Todo A
[ ] Todo B
[ ] Todo C
```
You will be able to click on/off on the checklist.
### Tags
You can add tags related to tasks. Use them to categorize tasks (e.g., by category or responsible department). Tags are color-coded, making lists easier to scan.
### Responsible / Ball / Due Date / Status
These items are updated frequently as work progresses. If you already know them when creating the task, set them then.
## Exchange messages about tasks (To comment)
We now have a detailed screen about the task with an easy-to-understand title and a clear description of the goal.
Use the comments section at the bottom of the screen to exchange messages about this task. Since it is arranged in chronological order from the top, you can grasp the information about the task in context even if you read it back later.
If you want to send a message to a specific member, use mentions. Enter @ (at sign) in the comment field to display the user list. When you select a user, the user name will be listed in the comment field, such as `@username`. If you make a comment in this state, a notification will be sent to the relevant member.
*If the notification setting of the corresponding member is "None", the notification will not be delivered.*
You can also enter pictograms from the pictogram button. Text comments tend to give a cold impression. Be careful with your comments so that the correct sentiment is conveyed.
## Set the person responsible for the task
Select and set the responsible person from the "Responsible" pull-down menu.
The person responsible at Repsona is the person responsible for guiding this task to the goal. That is, someone who understands the meaning and details of this task, stays aware of the status quo, and finally completes the task.
## Set the ball holder for the task
Select and set the ball holder from the "Ball" pull-down menu.
A ball in Repsona is "a person who temporarily has the ball to move the task forward." A person who is temporarily holding the ball at your request, such as when you send a message and wait for a reply, or when you ask for something and wait for the result.
## Set the due date of the task
Select and set the due date (period) from the calendar in the "Due date" dropdown.
## Set the status of a task
Select and set the status from the "Status" dropdown.
By default, there are three statuses. Change them as needed.
- ToDo: Not started
- Doing: In progress
- Done: Completed
You can change the names and number of statuses on the Status screen.
*You must have Owner or Admin privileges to change status names or counts.*
## Attach files to tasks
You can attach files to tasks and comments.
You can attach a file from the clip button. Click this button or drag-and-drop the file to this location.
The attachment will be placed there and will be available for preview and download.
## Create a sub-task
You can create subtasks within a task. If the task is large, create a sub-task and split it.
You can create a task from the + button of "Sub-task".
## Set a task as "Today"
When you set a task as "Today", it will be set as "Things to do today". It will be automatically removed the next day.
When you set a task as "Today", it will be displayed in "Today's Todo" on the home screen and project home. The project home displays "Today's Todo" for all participants in the project, so for example, if all team members set what they are going to do today as "Today" before the morning meeting, you can see the team's activities for the day at a glance.
## Follow a task
You can follow the task by clicking the Follow button. When you follow a task, you will be notified of task updates.
Only one person in charge of the task and the ball holder can be set. This is to clarify where the responsibility lies and where the ball lies.
On the other hand, multiple members may be involved in the progress of the task. In such cases, each member should "follow" the task.
## Enter plans and results for tasks
You can enter plans and results numerically for tasks. No units are set. Please use it as a reference value. When operating the Gantt chart, the numerical value of the period and the number of working days are displayed. Also, this value is output when exported as a CSV. You can aggregate it with other apps, etc.
## Duplicate a task
You can duplicate a task from the submenu to the right of the task title.
*↑ submenu button*
A modal similar to task creation will be displayed, so edit the content and create it.
## View a task's activity log
You can view the activity log from the submenu to the right of the task title. You can check the history of the task's updates so far.
## Search for tasks
You can search for tasks on the "Task List" screen. Enter "Keyword", "Tags", "Responsible", "Ball", "Status", "Milestone", "Priority", and "Due date" to execute the search. When the "Only Expired" switch is turned on, only the expired display is displayed. Select the "Show Closed" switch to also show completion. Click the search button to rerun the search.
Click the button to the right of the search form to change to "OR" or "exclude" conditions. From "Due Date," you can search by a range of due dates, or search only for items with a set due date, only for items without a set due date, and so on.
Clicking on the "?" button to preview the current search criteria.
## Organize tasks
In the task list, you can reorder the tasks by dragging the drag handles. It's easy to make a task a sub-task or take a sub-task out.
You can change a task to a sub-task just like changing a paragraph using the popover menu.

## What is a Gantt chart?
A Gantt chart lists tasks on the vertical axis and time on the horizontal axis. It gives an easy-to-understand view of the schedule from the start to the end of the project.
You can see the project at a glance, including the order of tasks, due dates, and assignees.
With Repsona, you can easily create the following Gantt charts with just a click or drag-and-drop.
*[Gantt chart](/w/Gantt%20chart/gantt),
[Progress chart](/w/Progress%20chart/gantt),
[Project schedule](/w/Project%20schedule/gantt),
[Bar chart](/w/Bar%20chart/gantt),
[Schedule chart](/w/Schedule%20chart/gantt),
[Project chart](/w/Project%20chart/gantt),
[Timeline](/w/Timeline/gantt),
[Progress report](/w/Progress%20report/gantt),
[Task management chart](/w/Task%20management%20chart/gantt),
and so on, depending on the type of job and industry.*
## How to make a Gantt chart
Click "Gantt" in the project menu.
### Create a task list
First, list the tasks you want to manage in your project. Identify all tasks that you know at the time of planning. You can also use parent-child relationships to make the display easier to understand.
### Set start/end (draw a bar)
To the right of each task is a date grid. Clicking it creates a “bar” where you can set the task’s schedule. You can move and resize the bar by drag-and-drop. The bar color is automatically determined by the assignee’s color, which you can change in user settings.
### Adjust the timeframe and balance workloads (adjust bars)
Draw a bar for each task and adjust the start and end. Ensure there’s enough time, that work isn’t overly tied to a single due date, and that it isn’t concentrated on one person.
### Tips for making Gantt charts
#### Bias adjustment
Use the "Responsible" grouping to see if work is skewed toward a particular person. In real projects, people aren’t working every minute of a timeline bar, so "overlapping bars = busy" doesn’t always hold. Discuss the plan with project managers and teammates, and adjust bars together to create a realistic schedule.
#### Aim for a solid first draft, not perfection
You can’t make a perfect plan from the start. Create a reasonable first draft—“something like this”—and move on. The time is better spent executing than polishing a plan endlessly.
#### Plans are living documents
When you make a plan, it’s easy to assume reality will follow it exactly. In practice, plans should evolve. Watch for signals outside the plan, take countermeasures, and regularly review and adjust. Let the plan grow with the project.
## How to use the Gantt chart
### Check task progress
The dark part in the bar shows the progress rate of the task (the rate at which the status is nearing completion).
### Check task details
Click the task name or bar to open the task details sidebar. You can change the assignee, update its status, add comments, and more.
### Create and search tasks
You can create and search tasks in the same way as on the task list.
### Set the display period
Click the button with "Display start date - Display end date" to display a calendar in which you can select the period. If you set the period on the calendar, you can set the display period of the Gantt chart. Click the cross button to reset to the default period. You can lock the display period with the lock button.
### Jump to today
Click the "Today" button to scroll the Gantt chart to today's position.
### View by day, week, or month
Click the "Day", "Week", and "Month" buttons to display the Gantt chart in units of each period.
### Group by List, Assignee, Ball, or Milestone
Click the "Assignee", "Ball", and "Milestone" buttons to group and display the Gantt chart by each category. "List" is displayed without grouping.
### Display information such as task name in the bar
Click the "i" button to display the task title, status, and due date to the right of the bar.
### Lock Gantt chart edits
Click the padlock button to lock the Gantt chart edits (only affects yourself). The default is locked.
### Display in due date order
Click the due date sort button to sort the tasks in the Gantt chart by due date. Since the parent-child relationship is maintained during sorting, subtasks are sorted within the due date of the parent task.
### Display progress lines
Press the lightning line button to display progress lines.
### Move task bars together
Press the move together button to be able to move task bars together. Tasks with parent-child relationships or dependencies will move together. Also, if you hold down Shift and select multiple tasks, the selected tasks can be moved together at the same time.
### Undo and redo
By pressing the "Undo" and "Redo" buttons, you can return to the previous state or redo it.
### Add milestones
You can add milestones by clicking the "Add Milestone" button and entering the milestone name and due date.
On the Milestone screen, set and group the tasks you want to complete by that milestone.
### Adjust the area width of the Gantt chart
The line between the task list part and the date part can be adjusted by drag-and-drop.
### Scroll the Gantt chart horizontally
You can scroll by using the scroll bar of the window or by dragging the date part.
## Set task dependencies
### Create task dependencies
When you hover your mouse over the bar, blue balls will appear on the left and right of the bar.
You can create a dependency by drag-and-drop the blue ball onto another task that has a dependency.
If the start of the successor task is set before the completion of the predecessor task, the dependency line will be displayed in red.
### Remove task dependencies
Open the task details screen and open the details menu below where you want to set the responsible person and status.
Since the preceding task and the succeeding task are displayed, delete them with the cross button.
## When is the Gantt chart useful?
Gantt charts are especially useful for looking at the entire project from a "time" perspective. You can visualize the flow from the beginning to the end of a project, how busy it is, task dependencies, and the resulting waits.
Gantt charts are useful when you want to schedule an overall project, or when you have an order or due date for task execution. Make sure you know who has to do what by when, and get the job done!

## Help Center: Manage statuses with the Kanban board
URL: https://repsona.com/help/articles/002008000-status
Markdown: https://repsona.com/help/articles/002008000-status.md
You can manage task statuses on the Kanban board in Repsona. This article explains how to use the Status view effectively.

|---|---|
| All | All |
## What is a Kanban board?
A Kanban board arranges tasks as cards in named lanes (rows). By moving cards between lanes, you can see overall status at a glance. In the Status view, each lane represents a status, and you manage tasks by moving them like cards.
Repsona automatically creates a Kanban board by status, as shown below. You can operate it easily with drag-and-drop.
## Manage task status with the Kanban board
Click "Status" in the project menu.
### Create and search tasks
You can create and search tasks in the same way as on the task list.
### Change a task’s status
Drag and drop the task card to another lane.
### Change how subtasks are displayed (Flat display)
By default, the Status view nests subtasks under their parent. To expand all subtasks and display them flat, turn on the "Flat" switch at the bottom right of the screen.
## Set status names and order
### Rename a status
Click a status name (or choose Rename from its submenu) to rename it. You can also assign colors to statuses.
*↑ submenu button*
### Add a status
Click "Add status" on the right side of the Status view.
### Change status order
Drag status lane headers to reorder them. Lanes to the right of "Closed" are treated as completed.
### Delete a status
*Owner or Admin only*
Click "Delete status" from the status submenu. Tasks with the deleted status will become unset. This action cannot be undone.
## When is a Kanban board useful?
The Kanban format is ideal for reviewing a project’s "state" at a glance. It lets you visualize overall progress and the number of tasks in progress.
For some kinds of work, it’s more effective to focus on continuous task flow rather than strict due-date management. If you can see that a particular task group (e.g., those tied to a milestone) is steadily moving forward, that may be sufficient.
For such cases, manage status-centric work on the Kanban board instead of managing each individual task by due date.
Limit work in progress and watch for stalled tasks to keep your work moving forward!

Markdown: https://repsona.com/help/articles/002012000-milestone.md
Repsona lets you track progress toward goals by creating milestones and grouping tasks. Learn how to create and manage milestones.
| Who can use it | Available on |
|---|---|
| All | All |
## What is a milestone?
Milestones are checkpoints on your schedule. By grouping tasks that are scheduled to be completed by a specific milestone and setting a due date, it will be easier to check the progress of tasks up to the milestone.
With Repsona, you can manage the following by creating milestones.
### Check the burndown chart
When you group tasks by milestone and set due dates, a burndown chart is generated automatically. It shows the number of unfinished tasks over time, so you can see at a glance how many tasks need to be completed—and at what pace—by the milestone due date.
Gray is the ideal line, yellow is the planned line, and blue is the actual line. The planned line is calculated from the due dates set for each task. The actual line shows the count of tasks that have reached Done as of each date.
### Check milestones on the Gantt chart
When you create a milestone with a due date, you will see a vertical green line on the Gantt chart. You can visually see the milestone due date on the Gantt chart.
If you click the "Milestone" button that is displayed in units of "List", "Resp", and "Milestone", the Gantt chart will be displayed in a grouped form for each milestone, and you can check the plan for each milestone.
## Manage milestones
Click "Milestones" from the "Project Menu".
### Create milestones
You can create milestones from the + button.
Enter the milestone name and due date and click Create.
### Group tasks by milestone (set milestones for tasks)
From the task list in the left pane, drag-and-drop within the milestone frame to move the task into the dropped milestone. The task is now set to a milestone.
You can also set it from the task details milestone pull-down.
### Change milestone due date
You can change the due date of a milestone by opening the calendar with the date button to the right of the milestone name. Click the cross button to cancel the due date.
### Close milestones
You can close the milestone by clicking the "Close" button. Close completed milestones. It will not be displayed from the list of milestones.
### Reopen milestones
To resume a closed milestone, turn on the "Show Completed" switch at the top of the screen and click the "Re-open" button for the displayed milestone.
### Check the progress of milestones
The blue progress bar in the milestone frame shows the progress of the tasks in the milestone. It shows the progress rate (the rate at which the status is approaching completion) of the task within the milestone.
### Carry tasks within a milestone to the next milestone
Click the "Carry Forward" button to carry over unfinished tasks to the next milestone.
### Delete milestones
You can delete milestones from the submenu to the right of the due date button. This operation is irreversible.

## Help Center: Create, share, and manage notes to promote information sharing
URL: https://repsona.com/help/articles/002013000-note
Markdown: https://repsona.com/help/articles/002013000-note.md
With Repsona, you can create notes (Markdown-compatible) to capture your team’s know-how, organize it, and share it. This article explains how to create and manage notes.
## Information sharing using Repsona
As your project progresses, streamline work by putting shareable information in your work management tool where everyone can access it easily.
For example, when a new teammate joins a project, it’s helpful to say, “Please start here,” and “If you’re unsure, check this page.”
- The first thing to do when you join
- Explanation of information and terms unique to this project
- Procedure for some work
- Meeting Agenda and Minutes
- Record when there is a problem
etc.
By writing down information that tends to be buried in email or lost in chat—and managing it centrally in Repsona Notes—you can save significant time otherwise spent organizing and searching.

## Create a note
Click "Notes" in the project menu.
You can create a note from the + button.
Click the + button to create a note and open the note editor. Click "Update" to save the note, or "Update and exit" to save and return to the note list.
### Title
Enter the title of the note. Give a title that is easy to understand at a glance, such as "Procedure for XX", "Regular meeting on XX", "Progress meeting on XX", "What to do when XX occurs"
### Location
You can set the location of the note (note parent = something like a folder). Once set, it can be set as a sub-note for that note. If you select "(Top)", it will not be a sub-note of any note.
### Tags
You can add tags to notes. Use them to categorize content (e.g., by topic or team). Tags are color-coded, making lists easier to scan.
## Write a note
Below the title is a note editor. Please write the contents of the note here. Notes can be written in Markdown format.
### You can write in Markdown
You can use Markdown for details and comments. Markdown is a simple text-based "writing notation" that lets you structure your document with bold, italics, headings, and more.
### Checklists (checkboxes)
If you create a checklist with markdown, you can check the progress of a small list of tasks in a note as you check them off. You can create a checklist by writing as follows.
```
[x] Todo A
[ ] Todo B
[ ] Todo C
```
You will be able to click on/off on the checklist.
## Save as a note in progress
If you turn on the "WIP" switch and save it, it will be saved as a work-in-progress note. "This note is work-in-progress" is displayed at the top of the note article. A yellow draft icon is displayed on the list.
## View a note's activity log
*↑ submenu button*
You can view the activity log from the submenu to the right of the note title. You can check the history of the note's updates so far.
## View the edit history of a note
You can view the edit history from the submenu to the right of the note's title. You can see the history of the note's content as it has been updated.
The version information remains at the time of the update, and you can check the differences at that point in time. You can roll back to the current note from the Version menu.
## Print (or save as PDF) notes
You can print (or save as PDF) notes from the submenu to the right of the note title. The browser's standard print preview will appear, and you can print (or save the PDF) using your preferred settings.
## Search for notes
You can search for notes by clicking the search button in the note list. Enter "keyword" and "tag" to execute the search. If you turn on the "WIP" switch, you can search for work-in-progress notes.
## Organize your notes
In the note list, you can reorder the notes by dragging the drag handles. It's easy to turn a note into a sub-note or take the sub-note out.
You can change a note to a sub-note just like changing a paragraph in the popover menu.
## Tips for making information sharing meaningful
In order to make information sharing as a team meaningful, it is important to think that "even if it is halfway, write it down and grow it." Even if the content is incomplete, we recommend that you start writing small. If you are worried about halfway, save it as "WIP" and cancel it when the degree of completion is improved.
Small notes and pieces of notebooks, when gathered together, are very important information and treasures for getting the job done. It is important to have a habit of casually writing rough text, regardless of layout, decoration, or perfection.
Information is a living thing. The notebook that has been "completed" by canceling "WIP" should be updated and grown according to the times. The notes created in the project will become the strongest document with plenty of know-how that you can not find even if you look it up with a search engine.

## What is Markdown?
Markdown is a lightweight markup language for writing. You can write in plain text, apply formatting like bold or italics, and structure documents with headings.
Because it’s just text (plain text), you can start writing immediately—like jotting notes—without worrying about layout. Focus on the work of writing, not on adjusting paragraphs or positions.
This help site is also written in Markdown.
## Features of Markdown
- Everyone can write easily
- Read as it is
- You can decorate and structure beautifully with a little ingenuity.
- Used in various services
- Since it is text, the difference is easy to understand
## Example of how to write Markdown
For example, if you write a list in Markdown as follows,
```text
- List 1
- List 2
- List 3
```
It will be automatically converted to HTML and displayed as below.
---
- List 1
- List 2
- List 3
---
## How to use the Markdown editor for notes
### Create a note
You can create a note from the + button.
Click the + button to create a note and open the note editor screen.
### Decorate the text
You don’t need to memorize Markdown. Repsona’s note editor has a toolbar that inserts the notation for you.
#### Heading
Click the heading button to insert a `#`. The character written after `#` becomes the "heading".
#### Bold
Click the bold button to insert `****`. Select the character you want to make bold and click this button to make it bold, surrounded by `**`.
#### Italic
Click the italic button to insert `**`. Select the character you want to italicize and click this button to italicize surrounded by `*`.
#### Strikethrough
Click the strikethrough button to insert `~~~~`. Select the character you want to cancel and click this button to cancel it by enclosing it in `~~`.
#### Link

Click the table button to insert the description for the table.
#### Quote
Click the quote button to insert `>`. Select the character you want to quote and click this button to start quoting with `>`.
#### Code
Click the code button to wrap content in ```. If you want to show text without formatting, enclose it in a code block. Select the text and click this button to wrap it in a code block.
#### Image
Insert images by dragging and dropping them into the editor. You can also paste or type an image URL to insert it into the document.
```
```
## If you find Markdown difficult, just write it in text
Repsona's note editor supports Markdown, but it's just a text editor (Notepad). Feel free to write a text.
Too much attention to the layout and decoration of the text makes it difficult to get around to the "contents" that should be described in detail. Simply focus on writing the text and put off the layout and decoration.

Click "Productivity" in the project menu.
Productivity charts show activity for each person.
### Score
Totals a member’s recent activity into a single score.
### Heat map
Days with activity are colored blue; darker means more activity.
### Done tasks
Count of tasks this member marked as Done.
### Done tasks (responsible)
Count of completed tasks the member was responsible for. For example, if the responsible member reports completion and the project lead sets the task to Done, the count increases here.
### Done tasks (involved)
Count of tasks that reached Done where the member held the ball at least once (e.g., temporarily held the ball while the task progressed).
### Received tasks
Count of new balls received (work taken on).
### Reactions
Number of reactions sent.
### Reactions received
Number of reactions received.
### Contributions to notes
Number of notes created or updated.
### Comments
Number of comments posted.
### Total
Sum of the above numbers.
## About the score
Repsona’s productivity score is simple. If there’s no movement—no responsibilities taken, no ball received, no contributions to notes, no productive activity—the number won’t increase. Flat charts generally indicate low activity.
However, activity volume alone doesn’t equal impact. For example, many reactions or comments don’t necessarily mean the work advanced. When reviewing productivity and scores, evaluate not only the numbers but also the substance of the activity and the positive reactions received.
Repsona is continuously improving as a people‑centered work management tool. We’ll keep refining these evaluation mechanisms to make them more useful.
## Help Center: Kaizen for team retrospectives (KPT)
URL: https://repsona.com/help/articles/002021000-kaizen
Markdown: https://repsona.com/help/articles/002021000-kaizen.md
Repsona values retrospectives for healthy team activity. As a simple framework, we provide a Kanban board based on the KPT method by default. This page explains how to use the Kaizen screen.
| Who can use it | Available on |
|---|---|
| All | All |
## Kaizen screen
Click "Kaizen" in the project menu.
### What is the KPT method?
KPT stands for Keep, Problem, and Try:
- Keep: continue what worked well
- Problem: identify issues
- Try: experiment with improvements
### Kaizen and retrospectives in Repsona
Rather than strictly following a framework, Repsona recommends lightweight, continuous retrospectives. Keep it simple and easy to sustain so you can steadily improve team issues.
## Retrospective
At the end of a project, review the whole effort: summarize what went well and what didn’t. Ideally, you surface questions and issues before a project ends, too.
We recommend weekly or monthly reviews. Assume there are always opportunities for improvement in day‑to‑day work: visualize issues, link them to tasks, and work toward solutions.
Also capture the team’s “good points.” Visualize and Keep them so everyone can see strengths regularly—it helps morale and alignment.
## How to proceed with Kaizen
### Create a Problem
Click the + button to add a “Problem.”
Examples: “Our team isn’t lively,” “The office is cold,” “Article production takes too long.” Feel free to propose problems at any level—company, organization, team, individual, or project.
You don’t need to start with big problems. Start small. You also don’t need solutions right away—the key is to capture what feels like a problem.
### Try: link tasks to problems
Define concrete actions to resolve the problem—i.e., tasks. On a Problem card, select an existing task from the dropdown, or create a new one.
Assign responsibility and a due date to the tasks, then move the Problem card to the Try lane.
### Keep: solved problems and team strengths
Once all tasks linked to a Problem are complete and the issue is resolved—or a good habit has taken hold—you can give it a name and Keep it as a team practice.
## Some problems can’t be solved—and that’s okay
Not every issue has a fix. Decide how to handle such problems and accept them when necessary.
By acknowledging issues openly rather than ignoring them—and by visualizing them as Problems you Keep—the team’s awareness and cohesion improve.

## React to comments
Click the "Reaction" button to add a reaction.
You can use emoji ( 👍 😄 😇 😍 🎉 ❤️ ) and tags for reactions.
For gratitude, use tags like "Thank you" or "Thanks!" For skill recognition, use tags such as "Design", "Python", or "Genius". When you need help or clarification, use tags like "Tell me" or "Question". Use any tag that fits the situation.
Reactions are collected on each member’s profile. Over time, they reflect what teammates appreciate and recognize—skills, contributions, and more—so you can get a feel for your teammates at a glance.

By adding a member who cannot log in to a project, you can still assign an assignee or a ball to that member.
For example, create an external partner (outside your team) or a business contact as a "no-login" member. By including that member in the project, you can identify who has the ball during your work interactions.
### Set role
*Owner only*
You can set and change member privileges. Choose from "Owner", "Admin", "Member", and "no-login". If an owner changes another member to "Owner", they immediately switch to "Admin" and lose owner privileges.
### Set billing status
You can set and change the billing status. Choose from "Active" or "Inactive". On paid plans, there is a charge per active member. Members other than "Active" are not counted as active.
### Inviting members
Operations can be performed from the submenu.
*↑ submenu button*
#### Set an email address and invite
If you want to change the email address of an invited member and re-invite them, set the new email address and click the "Send invitation email" button.
