Limitations and Considerations

Operately is focused on providing an opinionated, workflow-first alternative to flexible note tools: it ties goals, projects and reviews together so teams make consistent progress without reinventing processes. For teams wanting an open, self-hostable company OS with built-in operational workflows and an evolving AI assistant, Operately is positioned as a practical choice. (operately.com)
