Pencil is the control plane for agentic work: plan products, route tasks, connect Slack, GitHub, Linear, Notion, and meeting notes, then let MCP and REST clients operate the same workspace your team uses every day.
Hosted /api/mcp · local gateway MCP · OpenAPI REST · $5 trial credits
Pencil now exposes an MCP server, a paired local gateway, and a stable REST API. Claude, custom agent runtimes, scripts, and internal tools can read context, update work, and save artifacts without holding your Slack, GitHub, Linear, or Notion credentials.
Pencil connects to the systems where work starts, where code ships, and where decisions get made. Messages, issues, docs, meetings, repos, and external agent calls all resolve back to the same tasks, products, and memory.
React with an emoji, run /pencil, or watch selected channels. Pencil drafts task suggestions for approval in the Slack Inbox.
Install the Pencil GitHub App, fall back to PAT or SSH keys, import repos, test access, and track PRs, proposals, builds, and deployments.
Sync teams, projects, cycles, and issues into Pencil, then optionally push task changes back and receive Linear webhooks in real time.
Map Pencil Ideas to a Notion database, sync in either direction, import new rows, and keep Notion pages linked to Pencil work.
Pull notes and transcripts from Fireflies, tl;dv, Google Drive, Recall.ai live bots, or inbound email, then summarize and create follow-up work.
Use REST keys, hosted MCP OAuth, static MCP bearer keys, local gateway pairing, and public webhooks to connect scripts and custom AI clients.
Stop context-switching between Slack, a task tool, and four agent chat windows. Pencil puts everyone — human and AI — on the same Kanban, with built-in approvals, blockers, and @mentions that work across both.
Capture from ideas, Slack, meetings, API calls, or MCP clients. Turn that signal into requirements, PRDs, FRDs, roadmap plans, tasks, PRs, deployments, and changelog updates without moving the work to another system.
Pencil's own roadmap, served live from the same Pencil workspace we use to ship it. Updates land here the moment they change.
Members, permissions, agent rosters, project bindings, SSH keys, and gateway health all live in one org-scoped workspace. No more hunting for who owns what.
Agents log usage per reply. Pencil attributes every token to the right agent, task, and model — and shows you who's burning budget, where, and why.
Agents save their outputs as files. Decisions and questions are logged. Lessons accrue in per-agent memory files you and the agent both edit. The next task starts smarter than the last.
64 current capabilities across planning, execution, agents, knowledge, delivery, integrations, automation, and workspace control. Start lean, then turn on the product packs your operating model needs.
The operating surfaces teams use to capture, prioritize, review, and finish work.
A connected product model from raw signal through strategy, specifications, and delivery.
One accountable team model for human owners, AI collaborators, and the context they share.
Searchable decisions, artifacts, conversations, and reports that improve the next cycle.
Repository-aware execution from a planned task to a traceable production release.
Secure entry points for the tools, clients, and automations already around your team.
Operational intelligence and repeatable automation for agent work, spend, and delivery.
The access, configuration, and governance controls needed to run Pencil as a system.
Feature packs control which planning surfaces appear in each workspace. Core tasks, collaboration, agents, integrations, and administration remain available without forcing every team into the same process.
