Before the chatbot came the business problem. AI Today turned that simple ordering into a podcast, a teaching business, and a place inside the Project Management Institute.
The company formerly known as Digite is betting that the next project-management winner will not force every team into one doctrine. Its pitch is more practical: make the work visible, connect strategy to delivery, and let AI handle the blank-page chores.
Height was a New York-based software company that built an AI-native project management and collaboration tool for product teams. Founded in 2018 by ex-Stripe designer-engineer Michael Villar, Height combined tasks, chat, and adaptive workflows in one keyboard-first app, then pivoted to an 'autonomous' model in which an AI agent called Copilot handled the routine legwork of building software - triaging bugs, updating specs, pruning backlogs, and drafting standups. Backed by roughly $18.3M in venture funding, Height competed with Linear, Asana, and Jira before winding the product down in 2025.
Shortcut is a New York-based software company that builds a fast, lightweight project management and issue-tracking platform for software teams. Founded in 2014 as Clubhouse, it sits between the simplicity of Linear and the depth of Jira, offering sprints, boards, roadmaps, milestones, and automations. In 2025 it launched Korey, an AI agent that turns ideas into build-ready plans and orchestrates work across humans and AI agents. The platform has powered 21 million-plus completed stories across 50,000-plus organizations.
ONES.com is an all-in-one project and knowledge management platform built for software teams. It bundles project tracking, a Confluence-style wiki, test management, and CI/CD pipeline integration into one workspace, with AI woven into every plan and a strong emphasis on on-premises and air-gapped deployment. Founded in 2015 and backed by investors including GIC and Source Code Capital, ONES positions itself as a unified, self-hostable replacement for Atlassian's Jira and Confluence for enterprise teams that need data sovereignty.
Motion is an AI-native work management platform that started as an automatic calendar and task scheduler and has grown into an 'agentic work suite' for small and mid-sized businesses. It bundles projects, tasks, calendar, docs, notes, SOPs, sheets, reports, search and chat into one system, then layers AI 'Employees' on top that actually execute work - drafting proposals, prepping meetings, updating projects and answering clients. Founded in 2019 and backed by Y Combinator, Motion raised $60M in 2025 at a $550M valuation.
