Where Knit is going.

A rough timeline of what we've shipped and what we're working on next. Dates are approximate and we reserve the right to swap things around as we learn — but this is honestly where our heads are.

Product roadmap timeline

  1. Jan 2025
    Shipped

    Beta launch

    The first cohort of households comes onboard. Magic-link sign-in, a shared task list, and the bones of everything that follows.

  2. Mar 2025
    Shipped

    Multi-home task management

    One shared list of recurring chores and one-off jobs across one home or many. Pick something up, mark it done — the next instance lines up on its own.

  3. Jun 2025
    Shipped

    Subtasks and recurrence

    Checklists inside tasks, recurrence anchored to the days you actually live by. Every new instance starts with a clean checklist so nothing carries over by accident.

  4. Sep 2025
    Shipped

    Messaging with acknowledgments

    Send the pickup, the refill, the contractor window — and see who has actually read it. The loop closes without chasing.

  5. Dec 2025
    Shipped

    Activity log you can trust

    A single, scrollable history of every task closed, every message acknowledged, every recurrence rule changed. The record speaks for itself when memory fails.

  6. Mar 2026
    Shipped

    Questions — targeted asks

    Ask a specific person and see when they answer. Immediate email, one morning nudge, one tap to close the loop. No broadcast spam.

  7. May 2026
    Shipped

    Co-parenting toolkit

    Surfacing what already worked for shared households across two homes — clearer assignment, calmer handoffs, a record both sides can rely on.

    Messaging (and a name of your own)

    Questions, answered

    Questions are now a real part of Knit. Tag someone with a question, and we'll let you know the moment they answer.

    Small improvements

    Links in your email notifications now drop you on the exact comment, with a quick highlight so you can't miss it. And your messages read newest-first. Speaking of emails — notification preferences are rolling out in our next release.

    Closing the loop, out loud

    Two messaging fixes. When everyone has acked your FYI — or someone answers your question — you'll get a push the moment it happens, and the message visibly closes with a small receipt instead of staying visually open. Thanks to those of you who flagged the latter.

    Shipped

    You decide which emails reach you

    The notification preferences we promised. A new Email Notifications panel in Settings lets each person pick exactly which emails land in their inbox.

    Shipped New

    Read receipts that actually mean "read"

    A message you posted now waits in your feed until you've truly seen it wrap up, then slips into history on its own. And a message only counts as "seen" once it's been on your screen long enough to read — not just scrolled past.

    Shipped

    A dismiss button for closed messages

    A closed message waits in your active feed until you've seen it wrap up, then moves to history on its own. Now you can tap Dismiss to send it there yourself.

    The activity log picks up two new events

    When someone reopens a closed message or answers a question, your household history now records it.

    In progress

    Attachments on messages

    Drop a photo of the appliance label, a screenshot of the school form, a copy of the invoice — right inside the thread where the conversation lives.

  19. Jun 2026
    Shipped

    Notification preferences

    Per-channel and per-event controls so each member chooses what reaches them — and how. Defaults stay sensible; quiet hours stay quiet.

  20. Jun 2026
    Shipped

    Search

    Type a few words to find a task, a message, a comment from last month — across everyone's lists, not just yours.

  21. Jun 2026
    In progress

    Public changelog + What's New

    A public page for what just shipped — and a quiet in-app notice the first time you open the app after something lands. No release-note slog; just enough to notice.

  22. Aug 2026
    Planned

    Task inbox

    A focused view of just what's yours, just what's now. Triage in one place instead of scanning the whole household board.

  23. Sep 2026
    Planned

    Household timezone awareness

    Recurring tasks anchored to the household's local time, not the server's. Trash day stays Tuesday morning when you travel.

  24. Oct 2026
    Planned

    Workload balancing

    A Fair Play–style view that surfaces who's carrying what — visible weight, not invisible labor. Designed to inform conversations, not assign blame.

  25. Nov 2026
    Planned

    Co-parenting assistant

    Guided flows for the hard moments — exchange logs, neutral summaries, calm rephrasing. Built on the record Knit already keeps.
