Entrackr · 1d

Open-source project management startup Plane has acquired Sort, a US-based engineering team specializing in AI-native enterprise workflows, marking its official expansion into the North American market. The move comes 18 months after Plane raised $4 million in seed funding. The Sort team brings deep expertise in enterprise software and AI systems, using Plane’s capabilities in infrastructure, on-prem deployment, and workflow automation. The acquisition strengthens Plane’s product offering as a modern, self-hosted platform tailored for security-conscious organizations, and accelerates its enterprise go-to-market efforts across North America. Plane is an open-source project management platform built for modern teams, combining task tracking, wikis, and timelines in a unified interface. With advanced features like custom workflows, RBAC, audit logs, and air-gapped deployments, it serves over 100,000 users globally. With its US expansion and a team featuring veterans from MongoDB, PayPal, Elastic, and BitGo, Plane is planning to become a category-defining Work OS that balances openness, control, and enterprise-grade performance.
