Instagantt
Instagantt is browser-based Gantt chart software for project planning and team collaboration, with no installation required. Its Gantt view supports drag-and-drop scheduling, dependencies, milestones, progress tracking, and critical path highlighting. Other views include table, Kanban board, workload, and dashboard. Users can share public read-only snapshot URLs and export charts as PDFs, images, or spreadsheets. Instagantt for Asana syncs tasks, subtasks, assignees, dates, and supported custom fields; a standalone version works without an Asana account. The AI Assistant can generate project plans from a description and is listed for standalone paid plans. The free Asana version supports one user and up to three projects. Individual is $10 per month, billed at $120/year; Teams is $20 per month, billed at $240/year, with three collaborators included and extra collaborators at +$8/mo each. The company states it uses GDPR-compliant data handling and encryption in transit and at rest, and offers a Data Processing Agreement on request. It says it aims for 99.9% availability.
