N°001 — A calmer tracker

Put the work
in order.

Normalize ERP is the small project & task tracker we built for our own work — a kanban board, a list, a backlog, and honest time logging. Nothing else. That's the point.

01 —The idea

Most trackers grew into kitchen sinks. We built a chef's knife.

No automations engine1. No custom fields. No goal trees, portfolios, or wiki. Projects hold tasks; tasks move across one board; hours get logged against them. Light reporting on top.

Everything your team actually touches every day — and nothing that needs an admin certification to configure. We made it for our own studio; the clients we work with use the same board, and nothing is hidden behind a plan or a pitch.

1  Almost. There's no rules-and-triggers engine to wire up here — but that is the point of the connector (N°006), not a gap. Point an agent at the board instead: link Claude and it plans the work, files the tasks and logs the hours for you. The automation you bring, not one you assemble.

02 —What's inside

2.1

The board

Eight statuses from backlog to done. Drag a card, the whole team sees it move.

2.2

The list

Sort, filter, edit inline — for the days you need a spreadsheet's honesty.

2.3

The backlog

A quiet room where ideas wait their turn. Groom it, then promote.

2.4

The clock

Start a timer or log hours by hand. Every task shows logged against estimate.

2.5

The conversation

Rich-text notes with @mentions. The discussion lives on the task, not in chat.

2.6

The signal

In-app, email, and web push — each person tunes their own noise.

also in the box — subtasks · task numbers & deep links · link previews · csv export · attendance check-in · multiple workspaces · roles & permissions · per-channel notification preferences · changelog

Time you can stand behind.

Timer or manualStart the clock from any task drawer, or log hours after the fact.
Roll-ups that readTimesheet by person, project, and task — 7 to 365 days, CSV in one click.
Logged vs. estimateEvery task confesses how it is really going.
The 9-hour ruleCheck in for the day; forget to leave, and it checks you out at nine.

04 —The team

Everyone knows whose move it is.

Super adminOwns the workspace: members, roles, invitations.
Project managerShapes projects, assigns the work, watches the board.
DeveloperMoves cards, logs hours, gets @mentioned — and gets on with it.
CustomerA guest on their own projects: files a task, comments, follows it — nothing else.

Tasks take several assignees · mentions find the right people · every workspace keeps its own walls.

N°005 — Your workspace

Give every project a face.

Twenty built-in marks, drawn two ways — a crisp line glyph or its painted twin. Pick one when you spin up a project; it rides the card, the list row and the project header, so the eye finds the work before the words do.

N°006 — The connector

Talk to your tracker.

Normalize ERP ships a built-in MCP connector. Link your account to Claude and ask it to file tasks, log your hours, and read the board back to you — same permissions, same audit trail.
