Show HN: Despatch – Project management for systems thinking, not just software

https://despatch-demo.vercel.app
1•AdobiWanKenobi•1h ago
I've been experimenting with a project management tool for disciplines that use systems thinking, so government services, infrastructure, energy, (non-software) engineering. Things that Jira, Asana, Monday etc. weren't quite designed for

These fields have deep hierarchy (programmes → projects → work packages → tasks), and need first-class data structures for requirements, stakeholders, interfaces, and risk registers — not just tickets and sprints.

Existing mainstream tools either force you into a flat task-board model or make you duct-tape spreadsheets and CRMs together.

Despatch has a native systems-thinking data model: requirements traceability, stakeholder registers, and multi-level programme structure out of the box.

The demo includes an MCP-based conversational interface — describe your programme and it builds the structure for you.

Would love feedback from anyone in defence, government, infrastructure, or any field where you've outgrown generic PM tools and have been forced back to first principles spreadsheets.
