Sound familiar?

Tasks hide in group chats, e-mail threads and spreadsheets – and you end up chasing everyone.

Contals puts every project on one calm board.

Miriam adds a card to the open day board on her laptop. Daniel sees it on his phone at once, takes it and answers in a comment. Both see the same – live.

Questions and answers

What is Contals?

Contals is a web app for organizing work on Kanban boards – boards, lists and cards like Trello – made for teams with many projects and many helpers. Volunteers, guests and viewers are free, and the data is stored in the EU.

Who pays?

Only full members – the people who create and organize boards. Volunteers, guests and viewers are free on every plan. Small teams with up to 5 full members use Contals for free (early access; the plans become final before the launch).

Do volunteers need an app or a password?

No app. Contals runs in the browser and can be installed on the home screen. Volunteers accept an e-mail invitation and can sign in with a link instead of a password.

Where is my data stored?

In Cloudflare’s EU jurisdiction: board data, the database, queues and backups; a second, encrypted copy of the backups lies at DigitalOcean in Frankfurt (Germany). Cloudflare is a US company, which we disclose in the privacy policy.

Can I import my Trello boards?

Yes – one board or a whole Trello workspace. The import brings lists, cards, labels, checklists, custom fields, comments, due dates, covers and attachments in a few minutes. Asana, Jira, monday.com, ClickUp, Notion and any spreadsheet work too.

Can I get my data out again?

Yes, any time: board, workspace and organization exports as JSON with the activity of the last 13 months, from the settings pages.
