About

Height is a modern project management and collaboration tool built for engineering and product teams that want the power of a fully customizable task management system with the speed and feel of a native application. With its spreadsheet-like list views, rich task attributes, document editor, and AI-powered automations, Height provides a flexible alternative to more rigid project management tools.

Tasks in Height have a rich, customizable attribute system. Built-in attributes include status, assignees, due dates, priority, and estimates, and custom attributes can be created for any additional data the team wants to track. Custom attributes support text, number, date, single and multi-select, user, and URL types, making Height adaptable to the specific workflow requirements of different teams and projects.

The list, board, gantt, and calendar views in Height allow the same tasks to be visualized in different ways depending on the planning or execution context. List view provides a spreadsheet-like interface with sortable, filterable columns. Board view displays tasks as cards organized in swimlanes by status, assignee, or any other attribute. Gantt chart visualizes task timelines and dependencies. Calendar view organizes tasks by due date.

Height's smart lists provide dynamic, query-based views that show tasks matching specific criteria across all projects. Teams can create smart lists for all tasks assigned to a specific person, all tasks due this week, all bugs with high priority, or any other combination of attribute filters. Smart lists update automatically as task attributes change, providing always-current focused views.

The document editor in Height enables creating meeting notes, specifications, design docs, and any other written content directly within the project management context. Documents can be linked to tasks and projects, keeping relevant written context co-located with the work it describes.

Height AI is an integrated AI assistant that helps teams automate repetitive tasks such as task triage, field population, and status updates based on configurable rules. The AI can analyze task descriptions and automatically suggest attribute values, reducing the manual work of keeping task metadata current.

The real-time collaboration features ensure that team members see each other's changes instantly, without needing to refresh. Presence indicators show who is viewing or editing the same task or list, and notifications keep team members informed about relevant activity.

Positioning

Height is a collaborative project management tool designed for product and engineering teams who want the organizational power of Linear with a more approachable, less opinionated interface. It combines task management, spreadsheet views, chat, and forms in a single workspace that adapts to how different team members prefer to work.

Height's standout feature is its AI-powered autonomous task management: it can auto-triage incoming tasks, suggest assignees based on historical patterns, generate subtasks from descriptions, and identify duplicate issues. This isn't bolted-on AI — it's woven into the core workflow, reducing the manual overhead of keeping a project board organized.

What You Get

  • Flexible Task Views
    Switch between list, board, calendar, Gantt, and spreadsheet views per project, with saved custom filters and groupings.
  • AI Task Assistant
    Autonomous AI that triages tasks, suggests priorities and assignees, generates subtasks, and identifies duplicates across your workspace.
  • Integrated Chat
    Real-time chat threads attached to tasks and projects, replacing the need for a separate Slack channel per topic.
  • Cross-Project Workflows
    Tasks can belong to multiple lists simultaneously, enabling cross-functional workflows without duplication.
  • Forms & Intake
    Public and private forms for bug reports, feature requests, or team intake that create tasks with pre-configured attributes.

Core Areas

Product Development

Plan sprints, track features, and manage backlogs with views tailored for PMs, designers, and engineers working together.

Task Triage & Prioritization

AI-assisted inbox management that automatically categorizes, prioritizes, and routes incoming work items.

Cross-Team Collaboration

Built-in chat and cross-project task linking keep context visible across engineering, design, and stakeholder teams.

Why It Matters

Project management tools create as much overhead as they eliminate when teams spend more time grooming boards than doing actual work. Height's AI automation tackles this directly — handling the repetitive triage, categorization, and routing that typically falls on project managers or team leads.

The result is a project management tool that actively reduces administrative burden rather than just providing a place to track it. For growing teams that need structure without a full-time project manager, Height fills the gap intelligently.
