Tapadoo Planner Turns Mac Gantt Charts Into Costed Plans
A native macOS planner that schedules tasks, allocates people, calculates project costs, and exports shareable browser-based plans.
Field notes
The planner models staffing as part of scheduling rather than treating dates as fixed: effort and assigned people determine task duration, while day rates feed costs upward through phases and the full project. Plans are described as ordinary local Mac documents, with export to a self-contained web page or PDF for recipients who do not own the app. The page also states that no account is required and that data stays local unless deliberately exported or shared.
