Our story
We're building a new type of Project management platform, for developers.
We're Harshith, Manoj, and Manik - friends, co-founders, and passionate open-source believers. For the past 5 years, we've been working together, and last year, our journey took an exciting turn when we were accepted into Y Combinator. While we entered Y Combinator with a different open-source project, the experience was invaluable. We learned a lot, iterated on our ideas, and ultimately decided to pivot towards Tegon.
Why Project Management?
Our experience with existing tools that have been there for decades haven't been great. Being such an important tool which is central to how you work, these tools are bloated, complex and often act as a burden for engineers. With the advent of AI - we thought what project management and issue tracking will look like 5-10 years down the line, the current tools were nowhere close to our imagination which got us excited and began the journey of Tegon. We want to reimagine project management, by taking an AI-first approach and starting with a simplified issue tracker built by and for engineers. Be open-source, be community-driven. That's Tegon.
