When this helps
- Work has a required sequence
- People keep starting tasks that aren't ready
- A single late task quietly delays everything after it
- You need to explain a slipped deadline with evidence
Blocking and blocked, made visible
Link any two cards and both show the relationship.
- Blocked cards are flagged on the board
- A dependency graph shows the whole chain
- Timeline draws the links as arrows
- Moving a date shows you everything it pushes
Find the real bottleneck
The dependency graph makes it obvious which single task is holding up the most work — usually not the one people are talking about.
Example: a website rebuild
- 1Link "Approve designs" as blocking "Build homepage"
- 2Link "Build homepage" as blocking "Content upload"
- 3Open the dependency graph to see the full chain
- 4When approval slips two days, see exactly which launch date moves
Dependencies are included from Starter ($5/mo) upwards. Full plan details. Last reviewed: September 2026.
