What is Plane?
Plane is an open-source project management tool covering issue tracking, cycles (sprints), modules and a team wiki in one application. The Community Edition is self-hostable under AGPL-3.0 via Docker or Kubernetes, and a managed Plane Cloud is offered alongside it with a free tier and paid Pro/Business/Enterprise plans.

Key capabilities
- Issue tracking: Work items with states, priorities and custom fields.
- Cycles & modules: Sprint-style cycles and larger feature groupings.
- Wiki: Built-in team documentation alongside project data.
Issue tracking, sprint planning and lightweight team documentation are its core areas.
Choose Plane when a team wants a Linear/Jira-style workflow with the option to self-host the whole stack instead of depending on a closed SaaS vendor.
Because the free Community Edition and free Cloud tier differ from paid plans mainly in advanced permissions, custom fields and support, confirm current tier limits on the pricing page before assuming feature parity.
