About
Kanban Pesquisa is a web‑based kanban board tailored for academic projects. It lets students and research groups track tasks, deadlines, and budgets while automatically managing citations via DOI lookup and formatting in APA, Chicago, AMA, and more. Integrated Google Drive support and optional AI assistants help keep documents and research notes linked to each card.
The case
Who it is for
Undergraduate thesis students, master’s and PhD candidates, and research group supervisors who need to coordinate tasks, citations, and meetings without juggling multiple tools.
What is broken today
Before, researchers often used separate spreadsheets, word processors, and citation managers, making it hard to keep track of deadlines, document versions, and supervisor feedback. Managing citations required manual lookup and formatting, while supervision meetings were recorded in disparate notes, leading to lost context and duplicated effort.
What it does about it
Kanban Pesquisa provides a single web interface where users can create boards with custom stages (proposal, literature review, data collection, analysis, writing). Each card shows deadlines, assignees, and attached documents. The platform automatically pulls citation metadata from DOI via Crossref, lets users format references in multiple styles, and stores them in a project library linked to tasks. Google Drive integration allows linking docs, sheets, and slides directly to cards. Supervisors can join as viewers, add comments, and minutes are saved as documents within the board.
Why not the obvious alternative
Unlike generic task boards such as Trello, Kanban Pesquisa embeds academic‑specific features: DOI‑based citation lookup, multi‑style formatting, citation library linked to tasks, and automatic link of Google Drive files. It also tracks supervision meetings as documents, keeping all research artifacts in a single, searchable kanban view.

Questions
- Is Kanban Pesquisa free?
- Yes, there is a free plan that requires no credit card. All core features are available at no cost.
- Can I link Google Drive files to my board?
- Yes, the platform lets you create new or select existing Google Docs, Sheets, and Slides and link them to any task or document.
- How does the citation lookup work?
- Enter a DOI and the system queries Crossref to fetch title, authors, journal, and date, then saves the reference in the project library for linking to tasks.
- Can supervisors join without editing rights?
- Supervisors can be added with a ‘viewer’ role, allowing them to follow progress, comment on tasks, and add minutes without altering the board structure.
