About

Hoshin

Features
Read full description

Hoshin is the management app I always wanted to have. It was created from years of real experience in project management, Lean thinking, quality systems, standardized work, operational control and organization management. The goal is simple: provide one workspace where strategy, projects, people, tasks, timing, problem solving and continuous improvement can live together. Most project tools are flat. They show tasks, lists or boards, but often miss the real structure of how organizations work. In real life, work is managed across multiple levels. Someone defines the objectives. Someone coordinates the project. Someone performs the activities. Someone needs help. Managers need to understand the whole picture before a problem becomes a delay. Hoshin was designed around that reality. MULTI-LEVEL MANAGEMENT Create organizations, boards, projects, subprojects, tasks and microtasks using a parent-child structure that reflects how work really flows. Each level can contain its own Kanban board, while progress, dates and help requests can move through the hierarchy. KANBAN AND TASK MANAGEMENT Plan and monitor work using visual workflow columns: • To Do • Doing • Waiting • Done Add assignees, descriptions, planned dates, progress, comments, checklists, costs, documents, images, links and other attachments. HOSHIN KANRI Visualize the complete project hierarchy in a single Hoshin Kanri map. See how strategic objectives connect to projects, activities and operational tasks, together with responsibilities, dates, status and progress. GANTT PLANNING Use organization, board and user Gantt views to understand timing, overlaps, delays and workload across multiple levels. CONTINUOUS-IMPROVEMENT TOOLS Create professional improvement and quality documents directly inside Hoshin: • A3 Problem Solving • Flowchart • SWOT Analysis • 5 Whys • Ishikawa Diagram • Pareto Analysis • Risk Matrix • Measures / KPI • Checklist • Sketch Tools can be created as standalone documents, stored in the Tool Library, linked to A3 phases or attached to tasks. PDF AND DOCUMENT EXPORT Generate structured PDF reports for improvement activities, process analysis, standardized work and project documentation. Editable source files remain connected to the generated documents so the work can be updated and exported again. HELP REQUESTS AND VISUAL CONTROL When help is requested at a lower level, the information is not lost. The request is reflected through the project hierarchy, helping managers identify where attention is required. Notifications keep team members informed of relevant activity. BACKUP AND RESTORE Create a complete Hoshin backup containing organizations, boards, tasks, tools and attachments. Backups can be inspected and restored using the Hoshin backup format. CLOUD COLLABORATION Keep organizations and project data synchronized across supported Apple devices. Invited colleagues can collaborate within the same organization workspace. ORGANIZATION SUBSCRIPTIONS Hoshin offers monthly and yearly subscription plans for one to five organizations. A subscription belongs to the account managing the organization. Invited colleagues can access the shared organization without purchasing a separate organization subscription. Hoshin is designed for: • Strategic initiatives • Improvement projects • Production follow-up • Quality management • Supplier qualification • Internal workflows • Management review actions • Standardized work • Team coordination • Operational problem solving Hoshin is not just a task list. It is a complete management workspace for people who want to understand what is happening, why it is happening and where action is needed.
