Start using Placeholders to scenario plan your people and scope project work in Float. Leave the guesswork behind and try Placeholders for forward-planning upcoming work, new hires, or even shared non-human resources.

One of the most requested Float features is here!

Plan and estimate your projects with more precision by adding budgets at the task level.

Imagine you're working on a client project with a $10K budget cap. With this new feature, you can assign a budget (hours or fee) to each project task. These tasks sum up to create a total project budget, which you can then allocate against, and track in Reports.

Get a quicker view of what you need to know when planning work—with total people and start and end dates added to the Project Plan. See how many people are on each project and click the project dates to jump forward or back to that point point in time. Voila! It's more info in fewer clicks ✨

This feature is being rolled out to teams this week. If you want access sooner, contact support@float.com.

Now you can create and edit phases from inside the project side panel for a more seamless planning experience! This improvement also means that you can easily access your project and phase information alongside an allocation on the schedule. You can even create a project on the fly using a template —to plan multiple projects, faster.
