About Activism Labs

Activism Labs is a space for the development of tools for grassroots organizers and activists. We specialize in web-based project management and productivity tools.

This project was born out of the need for a customizable tool for teams to manage all the elements of a project. Including:

  • Meetings: agenda, notes, date, location, invitations, attendance, repeating meetings
  • Task Tracking: Keep track of tasks, who is executing them, who is holding that person responsible, and when they are due.
  • Timelines: Projects are planned from a timeline perspective: rows are realms of the project, columns are dates, and cells contain the tasks that need to be done that week.
  • Communication: Projects have a discussion listserv for communication within the team just like google groups, but membership is reflected within the system instead of needing to go somewhere to add them to the listerv.
  • Hierarchy : You want to be able to add someone to the team without sharing them on 3 different google docs folders (one for the organization, one for the project, and one for the specific team).

These are the tools being developed at Activism Labs. Check out the roadmap for more details.
