BlocPad - Project & Team Workspace - Kanban and wiki that update instantly for your projects

by•
BlocPad is a modern project management app built on one belief: your work shouldn’t be used as leverage. Plan projects, manage tasks, and document decisions in one place—kanban boards, task details with context, and a built-in wiki that lives with the work. No mid-project paywalls. No sudden lock-ins. Built for real teams doing real work.

Hey 👋 BlocPad started from a frustration I kept running into with project tools. You invest weeks setting up a project — tasks, docs, workflows — and right when the project becomes critical, a paywall shows up. At that point, you’re not choosing a tool anymore… you’re trapped by it. BlocPad is built around a simple belief: your work shouldn’t be used as leverage. So we built a serious project management app — kanban boards, task details with context, and a project wiki that lives with the work — without mid-project paywalls. If you’re managing real projects and want a tool that respects your time (and your work), I’d love for you to try it and share feedback. Happy to answer questions, and very open to criticism 🙌 — Mihir

Such a different perspective on how project management software should be organized. I will try it. I’ve seen that there is a freemium model but, I believe it will benefit more from a clearer pricing structure

@zahran_dabbagh Thanks — really appreciate you giving it a try 🙌

That’s fair feedback on pricing. Right now we’re intentionally keeping the freemium model simple while we learn how teams actually use BlocPad, but a clearer, more structured pricing plan is coming soon — without mid-project paywalls or lock-in.

@mihir_kanzariya fair enough. I will absolutely go for a deeper try today

@mihir_kanzariya last thing because I really loved the idea. I am not aware of all features included yet but if you enable one click connection of other productivity apps (Gmail, Canvas, Notes, etc) this would transform it into a centralized hub for all one person productivity actions. I understand this requires a gradual implementation and phasing but since it still is MVP, I believe this can be a future planned feature

@zahran_dabbagh Love this idea 🙌 You’re spot on — one-click integrations with tools like Gmail, Calendar, Notes, etc. are already in the pipeline.

BlocPad’s long-term vision is exactly that: a centralized productivity hub, rolling out step by step as we grow.

Hi Mihir, can I ask how your product differs from tools like Notion or Lark?

@jojo_li Great question. BlocPad actually started because I was a Notion user. Our startup loved it… until we hit limits and suddenly it was ~$10 per user, which adds up fast for small teams.

BlocPad is still an MVP, so it’s too early to compare it feature-by-feature with Notion or Lark. Right now the focus is on no mid-project paywalls, real-time by default, and a tighter mix of Notion-style docs + Jira-style execution.

We’re rolling out something genuinely different over the next few weeks — especially around AI workflows, integrations with Cursor and Claude CLI, and an AI project manager that feels human — helping managers stay on top without micromanaging. Just getting started 👀

"No mid-project paywalls" is such a refreshing approach! Too many tools start free then hit you with upgrade prompts right when you're deep into work. How does BlocPad's export/data portability work? Love the idea of not being locked in.

@nora_studiohedera Thanks — that lock-in frustration is exactly what we wanted to avoid.

Your data is always yours. You can export projects, tasks, and docs anytime — no upgrades, no “unlock to download” screens. BlocPad is meant to earn trust by being useful, not by trapping work inside it.

Great concept! A project management tool that keeps work, decisions, and documentation together without surprise paywalls or lock-ins feels like what many teams actually need.
