OpenLoops, plan and manage your projects effortlessly, while you chat

Last year I posted my startup (called OpenLoopz at the time) to Hacker News expecting it to be ignored. I was hoping for a few comments at very best, but to my surprise the response was outstanding. Sure, most of it was negative, but even the harshest feedback was intended as constructive and I took it that way. It was a massive learning experience for me and I was thankful to everyone who took the time to give feedback. Here is the link if anyone is interested: https://goo.gl/CbntXB. Once things settled down, I followed the advice on HN and took some time away from the project. I found another contract and when I was ready, I started working on a more focused version of my app in my spare time. A year and a half later, the result is quite different but with the same fundamental idea: to provide a simpler, more developer-friendly way to manage software projects by focusing on improved team communication. https://demo.openloops.io/about It's not finished. I’m showing it as a demo for now while I test and refine it. I’m trying to go against my instincts and show it publicly earlier than before (another lesson I learned from the HN feedback). I also have a separate instance that I am using to manage development of OLS which is public so you can view it without an account: https://ols.openloops.io/dashboard/LuWSk44kKnSB56qu8 Please let me know what you think. Even if I get 5% of the feedback I got from the previous version, it will help massively.
