Project Management Software for Technology Startups in Kolkata
For early Kolkata startups deciding whether to pay for a project tool at all. A plain account of what's free, what each paid plan adds, and how the trial ends.
- 14-day full-access trial
- No card required
- 7-day refund on paid plans
Spending nothing until there's a reason to
An early startup counts every subscription. Most project tools make that hard: a "free" tier that is really a trial, a seat limit that bites in the second month, or the one feature you need sitting two tiers up. You find out what you're paying for after you've moved your work in.
Here is exactly what you get with ShipSprint at each stage, so you can decide before you start.
Free costs nothing and has no time limit. It covers the core boards for up to 5 users and 2 projects, with every project template and community support. For a founding team tracking one product and one set of operational tasks, that may be enough for a while.
Team is ₹299 per user per month, or ₹2,899 per user per year, plus GST. It's the plan to move to when you need time tracking and timesheets, GitHub integration, the manager dashboard, capacity planning that knows about leave, email digests, work follow-ups or AI assistant access. It covers up to 40 users and 100 projects.
Business is ₹599 per user per month, or ₹6,499 per year, plus GST. It adds delivery forecasts, scorecards, the owner command center with a Monday digest, the workspace audit log, sign-in with Google or Microsoft, priority support and unlimited projects. Most startups don't need it on day one; it starts to earn its keep once there are several teams to keep track of.
How the trial ends
Every new workspace starts with 14 days of the full Business plan and a sample project loaded, without a card. Use it to try the parts you're unsure about, such as GitHub sync or the forecasts, on your real work.
If nobody upgrades, the workspace continues on Free and nothing is deleted. Paid features stop, but your boards and cards stay where they are. If you do pay and change your mind, any paid charge is refunded in full within 7 days. And on every plan, you can export the full workspace as JSON.
One subscription for the whole company
Engineering, HR, marketing and operations each get their own templates and vocabulary on the same plan, so the person who does three jobs doesn't need three tools.
Sprints on WIP-limited boards, and a triage inbox so feedback from early users doesn't vanish in someone's messages.
A candidate pipeline and an onboarding checklist, so the first engineer's first week is planned by someone.
A content calendar and launch checklist, on boards that use marketing's words.
A "my day" screen with today's items across every function, and one tap to flag "I'm blocked" with the context attached.
Keeping decisions when the team doubles
The reasons behind early choices, such as why a feature was cut, which pricing was tried, or what an investor asked for, tend to live in chat history. That works until the fifth or sixth hire asks why something is the way it is. The wiki keeps those decisions next to the work, with page history, and any sentence can be turned into a task.
As the team grows, plan the year with Kolkata's calendar in view. Durga Puja in the autumn is the big regional festival, Diwali is close behind and Holi falls in the spring. A launch planned for Puja week will have fewer people around to support it. Once you're on Team, capacity planning counts approved leave and public holidays so that shows up when you plan.
Using ShipSprint from Kolkata: four things to check
Who you're buying from. Quantuva Technologies Pvt. Ltd., which builds ShipSprint in Hyderabad. Billing is in rupees with GST-compliant invoices, and support runs by email and in-app chat.
Time zones. Support works IST hours and normally replies within the same working day, so there's no overnight wait.
Billing. Each seat is charged in rupees through Razorpay. Prices exclude GST; if your company has a GSTIN, the GST-compliant invoice lets you claim input-tax credit. Your accountant can confirm.
Data protection. Early-user lists and candidate details are personal data under the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023. Look through the sub-processor list and the security overview and check them against your own obligations.
Questions from Kolkata startups
Yes. Free has no time limit; what limits it is size: 5 users, 2 projects and the core boards.
No data is deleted. The workspace drops to Free, and the paid features stop working until you upgrade.
Free covers up to 5 users, so a sixth means moving to Team at ₹299 per user per month, or ₹2,899 per user per year, plus GST.
No. Templates cover engineering, HR, marketing and operations, all on the same subscription.
The pricing page compares Free, Team and Business side by side.
