Why Rolebase

Teams lose time when nobody knows who decides, when meetings end without a decision and when information lives in five different tools. Rolebase brings it all together around one living org chart, so everyone sees their place and knows who to turn to.

• All-in-one. Roles, meetings, discussions, tasks and decisions attach to the role they belong to.
• Flexible. From Free to Strict mode, you choose how much structure to enforce. Rolebase suits Holacracy, Sociocracy, liberated companies and more classic organizations alike.
• Open source and sovereign. MIT-licensed code, self-hostable, with hosted data stored in Europe.

Features

Meetings that decide Structured steps, attendance, shared notes, recurring meetings and templates.	Discussions in the right place Each discussion belongs to a role, and can lead to a proposal, a poll, a decision or a task.
Tasks everyone can see A shared kanban or list, filtered by role or by member.	News at a glance The latest decisions, discussions and meetings next to your own roles.

And also:

• Org chart views as nested circles, a hierarchical tree or by member, with PNG export
• Real-time editing for workshops and meetings, in person or remote
• Calendar sync with Google Calendar, Outlook and any iCal-compatible calendar
• Global search across members, roles, discussions, tasks and decisions
• Import and export, with Holaspirit import and XLSX or JSON export
• Notifications and digests, daily or weekly
• Activity log with the full history of changes

Works with your AI assistant

Ask your assistant who holds a role, prepare the agenda of the next meeting or create a task, in plain language.

• MCP connector for Claude, ChatGPT and Mistral Vibe, also available to coding agents
