Modern. Powerful. Made for Jira.

Flexible across every space type. Customizable down to every field. Fast from the very first keystroke. A board built for the people who live in Jira — and reimagined for the way they actually work.

Flexible by design.

Many boards per space. One board across many spaces. Public, shared, or all your own.

Customizable to the field.

Any field on a card. Columns mapped to anything, not just status. Filters as expressive as JQL.

Built for speed.

⌘K to do almost anything. Shortcuts for the basics. Bulk-edit a dozen work items in the time it takes to open one.

Flexibility

Boards that fit your team, not the other way around.

Pulled from every Jira space type. Sliced into as many views as you need. Shared with your team — or kept entirely your own. Shaped around your work, not your space admin's.

Across spaces One board, many spaces. Jira Software. Product Discovery. Service Management. Company-managed or team-managed. Pull work from any Jira space into a single board.

Power & speed

Built for speed.

BetterBoard is built around the keyboard. Every action lives one keystroke away in ⌘K, the basics are single keys, and bulk-editing a dozen work items reuses the same shortcuts as editing one. Move between cards, columns, and boards without ever reaching for the mouse.

Everything, one keystroke away.

Press ⌘K and start typing. Every action in the app sits behind the same prompt, and the palette is context-aware — it only ever shows what makes sense for whatever you've got selected.

Built for muscle memory.

The actions you do dozens of times a day are bound to single keys, not chord combinations. Assign, label, flag, edit, create — learn them once and your hands stop leaving the home row.

Edit a dozen at once.

Shift-arrow to grab a range, space to toggle anything in or out, then run the same shortcut you'd use on a single card — and watch it apply to the whole set. No separate bulk-edit dialog, no page reload, no waiting.

5 selected Assign… A Status… S Actions ⌘K Delete × Clear

Move with the keyboard.

Up and down step between cards in a column. Left and right jump to the next column. Enter opens the focused card, Esc closes it. The whole board is a keyboard surface — the mouse becomes a backup, not a requirement.

Multiplayer

Real-time, across every tab.

Every BetterBoard view is multiplayer the moment it opens. Move a card on one screen and it moves on every other screen — instantly, on every device, across every tab.

The details

The little things, done right.

Time in status, on the card

How long each card has been sitting in its current column, right there on the card. The clock keeps ticking, so stale work doesn't quietly disappear.

Blockers, on hover

Hover any blocked card to see exactly what's blocking it, and any work it's blocking in turn. The dependency story lives on the board, not in a side panel.

Inline edit any field

Click a value on a card to edit it in place. Status, assignee, priority, due date, custom fields — no modal, no detour, no waiting on a save.

Formula fields supported

Calculated values render on the card just like every other field. Pull effort, blend priorities, compute risk — all live, all on the surface.

Swimlanes by any field

Group your board horizontally by assignee, priority, sprint, customer — any field, including custom. Drag between swimlanes, collapse the ones you don't need right now.

Parent breadcrumbs

Cards show their epic or parent work item inline. The context travels with the card, not behind a click.

Manual rank, kept

Drag-rank within any column and the order survives across sessions, devices, and reloads — per board, per user.

One-click flag

Tap the corner of any card to flag it. No menu, no comment dialog, no confirmation — just a yellow corner the whole team can see.

Hide completed work

Show everything, the last day, the last week, the current sprint, or nothing. Done items get out of the way without losing the filter logic that put them there.

Built on Forge

Runs on Atlassian.

BetterBoard runs on Atlassian Forge — Atlassian's official platform for hosted Marketplace apps. That means it installs from the Marketplace in seconds, lives entirely inside your Atlassian Cloud tenant, and inherits every Jira permission your team already has. Your data stays where it always has. Nothing new to host, nothing new to configure.

  • Six different Jira board types, and none of them quite did what I needed. This is the one I'd been waiting for.

  • Finally a board that adapts to how we actually work — not the space type Jira gave us.
