AI project intelligence for connected work
Your projects are connected.
Pentra sees what happens next.
Plan projects, map dependencies, predict delays, simulate changes and let Pentra help your team act before milestones move.
No credit card required.
Dependency cascade
Move one date.
See the entire cascade.
Every task knows what it waits for. Slip Vendor approval and watch the plan answer: which tasks move, which milestones follow, and whether float absorbs it before go-live does. Real scheduling, on a sample ERP plan.

How Depentra works
Plan it. Understand it. Act on it.
Depentra models the connected project. Pentra understands it. One task, from the plan to the decision:
Plan
- Projects
- Tasks
- Milestones
- Dependencies
Vendor approval feeds Integration build and Security review, which feed testing.
Understand
- Impact
- Risk
- Critical path
- Forecasts
+10 days moves 7 tasks and 2 milestones. Go-live moves 5 days.
Act
- Simulate
- Agents
- Workflows
- Approve
Recover 5 days of the 10-day slip on Vendor approval: 5 days back, low risk, applied when you approve.
Pentra Intelligence
Pentra doesn't just answer questions.
It understands the plan.
- Predict
- Forecast every milestone from the plan itself, and see which ones are slipping before anyone reports it.Every plan
- Explain
- Ask Pentra why: the cause, the chain it travelled and who owns what, in plain words.Every plan, uses AI Credits
- Simulate
- What-If: try a delay or a change on a copy of the plan and compare it before you commit.Professional
- Recover
- Recovery options measured on the schedule, prepared by an agent, applied only when you approve.Professional
Needs attention
- Predicted go-live delay
- +5 days
- Primary cause
- Vendor approval
- Affected
- 7 tasks, 2 milestones
- Potential recovery
- 5 days
- Recommendation
- Recover 5 days of the 10-day slip on Vendor approval
The forecast, cause and recovery are computed by the scheduling engine and use no AI Credits. Asking Pentra to explain them does.
Views
One project.
Every view your team needs.
Table, Gantt, Board and Dashboard are the same plan: change a date in one and every other view, dependency and forecast follows. Twenty views in all, from RAID to Budget.

Dependency intelligence
Know what moves before you move it.
Four dependency types with lead and lag, on every plan. Depentra validates each link and refuses circular chains, then works out what they mean for your dates.
- Critical path on the timelineStandard
- Downstream impact and dependency chainsStandard
- How a delay travelled, to its root causeStandard
- Dependency conflicts and dependency riskStandard
- Dependencies between projects, in ProgramsStandard
- What-If: simulate a delay before it happensProfessional
Lead and lag on any link: start three days after, or two days before.
- 5,000Linked tasks scheduled, float and critical path included, in under half a second. A test holds us to it.
- 45Templates with ready-made views, fields, workflows, dependencies and dashboards.
- 4Dependency types: finish-to-start, start-to-start, finish-to-finish and start-to-finish, each with lead or lag.
- 1,100+Automated tests, from the scheduling engine you just tried to the database rules that keep projects private.
Needs attention
Know where to look first.
The schedule is checked all the time: late milestones, work that moved onto the critical path, tasks nobody owns. Findings arrive worst first, resolve themselves when the cause goes away, and cost no AI Credits.
Pentra adds what the numbers mean, and can prepare a recovery plan for your approval.

- HighVendor approval now drives the go-live dateIt moved onto the critical path when Integration build ran out of float.New

AI Agents · Standard and Professional
Give Pentra a goal.
Let Agents handle the work.
An agent watches a project on a schedule or when tasks change. It reads the plan, explains what it finds, and on Professional it prepares a recovery plan, measured on the schedule.
- Controlled. It proposes; a person approves before anything in the plan changes.
- Contained. It sees only what the person it acts for can open.
- Budgeted. A daily AI Credit cap per agent, and a quiet project costs nothing.

AI Workflows
Automate the work around the work.
Rules that run when tasks change or on a schedule: set a status, assign, notify, raise a RAID entry, ask for approval. On Standard and Professional a step can ask AI to analyse the project. Date changes are proposed, never made silently.
- WhenOn a scheduleEvery Monday at 08:00
- ThenAsk AI to analyseProject healthEstimated 2–10 AI Credits
- ThenAsk AI to analyseWeekly status reportEstimated 2–10 AI Credits
- ThenNotify someoneThe project owners
Result Every Monday the owners get the week's status and what needs attention, before stand-up.
Programs · Standard and Professional
See the program before one project becomes the problem.
Roll projects up into a program, see each one's health from its own plan, and measure the dependencies that run between them.

AI Credits
One AI Credit pool.
Every Depentra AI feature.
Pentra, Agents, AI steps in workflows and Create with AI all draw on the same credits. Each plan includes them per user, or per active paid member on a Team, every month.
- Free100
- Basic750

- Professional7,500
Estimated AI Credits
- Pentra: a quick answer~1–5
- Pentra: a project analysis~2–15
- Agent mode in Pentra~4–40
- AI Agent run~2–8
- AI step in a workflow~2–10
- Create with AI~5–15
Estimates from what each feature may read and write; you are charged what a request actually cost, usually toward the low end.

- AI works inside your permissions
- Pentra and agents read only what the person they act for can open, and every AI request is checked first.
- AI proposes, people approve
- Agents and workflows prepare changes; nothing in a plan moves until someone applies it, and every change can be traced.
- A history of every change
- Who changed what and when, on every task, with restore.
- Payments by Stripe
- Card details go to Stripe and never reach Depentra.
Questions, answered.
All pricing questionsWhich plan should I choose?
Free to try Depentra on one project. Basic to plan and manage your own work on a timeline. Standard when you need to understand how the work connects: the critical path, downstream impact, Programs, AI Agents and Create with AI. Professional when you must predict and recover: What-If simulation, agents that prepare recovery plans, RAID, budget and resources.
Is Depentra priced per user or per workspace?
Per user, or per paid seat on a Team plan; never per workspace. Free is free; Basic, Standard and Professional are billed per user per month, monthly or annually. A Team pays the same price per seat, from 3 seats.
What are AI Credits?
What Pentra, AI Agents and AI steps in workflows spend when they ask a language model. Each plan includes AI credits per user, or per active paid member on a Team, every month: 100 on Free to try it, 750 on Basic, 2,500 on Standard and 7,500 on Professional.
Are AI Credits the same as tokens?
No. A request is charged what it actually cost to run, converted to credits, so you never count tokens. A quick question is about a credit; a whole project plan from a description is more.
How many AI Credits does each feature use?
Roughly: a quick question to Pentra ~1–5, a project analysis ~2–15, a summary or status report ~1–8, Create with AI ~5–15, an Agent mode request ~4–40, an agent run ~2–8 per project it interprets. Before a large request you see its estimate and are asked.
What doesn't use AI Credits?
Everything that is not a language model: planning, editing, every view, dependencies, the critical path, the Impact Matrix, What-If simulation, recovery options, health scores, Needs attention findings, imports, exports and workflows without an AI step. An agent run on a project where nothing changed costs nothing either.
