When texts and paper stop working
Your crew needs a shared list—not another business system
Full project-management products are powerful, but that power adds setup, training, and screens. Turnboards is for teams that only need to know what the job is, who owns the next step, and what is finished.
Keep the next action clear
Assign a task, add a due date or note, and let the crew see what needs attention now.
Spend less time managing software
Turnboards does not try to be your CRM, scheduler, payroll system, or invoicing platform.
A five-minute start

- Create a board for one real jobUse a customer job, property, crew day, field, or shop project.
- Add the next three work itemsCapture the work in Backlog or Active without configuring a workflow.

Find the workflow that looks like your day
Start with a practical guide for your type of team. Turnboards stays the same simple tool; the board setup changes to fit the work.

Why people keep it
Less software to fight with
“I use it to assign work to my employees, and they use it to add work items. Easy to use.”
“A lot of project management apps are too much work to actually use. This app is actually easy to use.”
“I work on several different books at once, and I use this to keep track of my ideas. It keeps me organized.”
Why I built Turnboards
I hate complicated software
I do not want another tool that demands training, constant configuration, and extra steps before real work can begin. Turnboards is intentionally the bare-minimum work manager I wanted: fast enough to use in the moment, clear enough for a crew to understand, and useful without becoming another job to maintain.
— Ben, founder of Turnboards
