Agentic software for leadership
One system.One structure.Ownership defined.
Everything to steer the organisation.
Kalends takes a unique approach: six functions come together in one system, under one shared structure. That opens up entirely new possibilities, such as chains of responsibility, shared views and year wheels that build themselves. You know exactly where everything is, and your new AI agents get a fantastic context to thrive in.
Improve how you steer your organisation, starting today.

Commitments
Routines the organisation has promised to keep
The monthly close, the quarterly controls, the notice date in the lease. Each has an owner, a rhythm and a signed-off record, so nothing depends on someone remembering.

The problem Kalends solves
The work belongs to the organisation.Yet it depends on individuals.
The role Head of HR is owned by the organisation · Maria holds it for now

- The role's work
- Maria's own
- Private
- Shared: one silo per app
Example: Maria is head of HR. The role is owned by the organisation, but everything it has to do has found an app of its own: performance reviews, employment law, staff events, the engagement survey and the dates that must not be missed. The leadership seminar she wants to attend sits in a to-do app of its own.
HR is only our example. Every area of responsibility has the same problem.
Nobody sees the whole
The private part sits in Maria's own lists and the shared part in one silo per app. The sum exists only in her head.
Leadership struggles to steer
Her manager sees fragments: a board here, a deck there. The year wheel lives in versions of a PowerPoint somewhere in Teams.
Knowledge leaves when she does
When Maria leaves, Erik takes over. He builds a web of his own from scratch, and what only lived in her head does not get done.
The root cause
Tools organise work by item or by person, which changes, instead of by area of responsibility. All-in-one tools do not change that: every team builds a structure of its own, and a year later nobody knows which one counts.
How Kalends solves itThe idea
Give the work a home in the organisation.
The company owns the areas and their commitments.People fulfil them.
Define your areas of responsibility and assign who is responsible in an Area Responsibility Map (ARM). Everything in Kalends is tied to an area, not to a person, because people change and areas don't. Goals, projects, KPIs, pages, files and agents all hang on the ARM, so nobody builds a system of their own on the side.

One structure for every team
Every team gets an area in the company's structure. Finance and Customers have the same shape as HR.
Leadership sees and steers the whole
The overview shows each area on its own: what is done, what is overdue, how the KPIs stand and what has changed.
The area stays when someone leaves
Whoever takes over finds the commitments, the history, the pages and the agent in place.
Commitments
Bring order to what the everyday work actually looks like
Projects end.Commitments come back.
The close every month, the controls every quarter, the notice date in the office lease. In Kalends each commitment sits in the area it belongs to, with an owner, a rhythm and a next date. So you know what the operation consists of and how it is run.

How to take stock
More about commitments →Draw the areas
Where somebody answers for an outcome: Finance, HR, IT and security.
Add the commitments
Start from templates for ISO 9001, ISO 27001, NIS2, work environment and HR, or let Kalends propose commitments from your own documents.
See the gaps
Commitments without an owner and anything running late show at once, area by area.
Projects and goals
Goals and projects in one tool
The goal says where you are going. The project gets you there.
A project belongs to an area, just like the commitments, and supports a goal. The goal is measured in results, so leadership can see how far you have come.

Pages
The intranet, the wiki and the documentation, in one structure
The tree is the organisation itself. A page moves with the responsibility.
Every area, project, goal and commitment has pages of its own. There is no second structure to keep up to date.

Links, subpages and history. Several people can edit a page at once and see each other live.
The documentation

KPIs
See how it is going on the numbers you steer by
With a goal you improve the KPI. With a directive you keep it within the limit.
Every KPI belongs to an area and has a data owner. Values are entered, uploaded from Excel or calculated from other KPIs.

Agents
Agents that keep the area in order and improve it
The agent suggests improvements in order of priority. The area's owner approves every change.
Give each area an AI agent that never stops tending it. Every week it goes through the area's commitments, goals, KPIs and pages, catches what has gone stale or gone missing, and suggests improvements to whoever is responsible. Everything belongs to an area with an owner, so the questions and suggestions reach the right person. When the list is empty, the area is in good shape.

Agents
How the agents work →Runs some commitments itself
Instruct the agent to perform a commitment, such as a news watch every Monday. A person still answers for it.
Fetches data from other systems
Give the agent permission to connect to other systems over MCP, such as Jira or Notion, and fetch data there.
Learns the area
Kalends makes excellent context for AI agents: the agent knows who answers for what and reads the area's pages and files.

Getting started and common questionsBefore you start
What people usually ask first
- What is a commitment?
- Something that has to be done again and again: the close, a control, a notice deadline, a meeting. It has an owner and a date, usually a rhythm, and each occurrence is followed up on its own. Projects and goals change the business. Commitments keep it running. More about commitments
- We already have an all-in-one tool. What is the difference?
- There is only one structure. A team does not get a workspace with an order of its own; it gets an area in the company's structure, and everything the team does hangs there. So the whole picture stays readable as the company grows.
- Do we have to replace every tool at once?
- No. Start with one area and the commitments that matter most. Engineering can keep its issue tracker for daily work, and if it has an MCP server, as Jira does, the area's agent can read from it in your name. How the agents work
- Does Kalends replace our ERP?
- No. Kalends is for steering the company, not running it: your books, customers and payroll stay in your business systems. Kalends shows who answers for what, and the work that keeps the company going.
- Where is our data stored?
- In Finland, within the EU/EEA, with Hetzner, and each organisation's data is separated at the database level. Read the data processing agreement
- What happens after the 30 days?
- If you choose no plan, the organisation becomes read-only, but your data stays and an administrator can export everything.
Start with one area.
Add the area's owners, the commitments that keep it running and one goal. Try the whole system free for 30 days, no card needed.
