My work page listing one overdue task, one due today, two in the next seven days, one later and one with no date, each tagged with its project — My work: everything assigned to you, across every project, sorted by when it's due.

Board view with Not Started, In Progress, Waiting on Sidekick, On Ice and Done columns of task cards showing threat level, villain and heroes — The Board. Cards show when they're blocked, timed after another task, or broken into subtasks.

Table view of crime-fighting tasks with colored chips for status, threat level, villain, heroes and powers needed — The Table: your own fields, edited in place. Yes, Villain is a field.

A task open in a side panel with its status, threat level, heroes, multi-select powers, dates, location and a formatted Markdown briefing — Every task opens in a panel that saves as you type, with Markdown notes.

Month calendar for October 2026 with tasks placed on their due dates and one unscheduled task listed beside it — The Calendar places tasks by date. Unscheduled ones wait on the side.

Dashboard opening with "9 tasks are late, and 4 are due this week", a week board of task titles from Late through next Friday, and bar lists of tasks by status and open tasks per hero split by status — The dashboard says what's late and what's due this week, then shows the week day by day and who's carrying what.

Compass is a web app for small teams that track work together. Each workspace defines its own fields, so the same tool can run a client roster, an event, or, as in these screenshots, a superhero team’s week. A project’s tasks can be shown as a table, a board, a tree of subtasks, or a calendar, and My work gathers everything assigned to you from every project into one list.

It began as a replacement for a small team’s shared spreadsheet and grew from there: dependencies so blocked work can’t be marked done by accident, intake forms so requests stop arriving by email, and a dashboard so nobody has to count rows by hand. The screenshots show demo data: The Deadline League, an entirely fictional team of heroes who plan their crime fighting and their annual retreat in Compass.
