Ideafy
The kanban that writes code. Drop an idea. AI evaluates feasibility, writes the implementation, generates tests, and hands you a card ready to ship.
What is Ideafy?
Ideafy is a local-first kanban app built for solo founders and small teams who work with AI coding agents. The board is the same six-column flow you already know — Ideation, Backlog, Bugs, In Progress, Human Test, Completed — but every card is wired to Claude Code, Gemini CLI, or Codex through the Model Context Protocol. Cards aren't just tickets; they're executable units with enough context for an agent to act on them without asking you.

- Evaluate. Run
