"Planforge is our next step in making hybrid PPM more accessible and powerful at the same time," said Gerald Aquila, founder and CEO of ONEPOINT. "By implementing best practices and lessons learned from hundreds of customer projects analyzed by leading PPM consultants, our software has distinctive built-in project management expertise that is unique in the market."
Dynamic Project Closure
Built around an always accessible project closure form, the new dynamic project closure process is the cornerstone of many practical enhancements to the new Planforge platform:
- 1–5-star ratings and comments for overall project success, each objective and KPI
- Post-project phase can be easily planned using to-dos
- Lessons learned can be added at any time
- Redesigned project closure PDF standard report is based on new capabilities
Lessons Learned
Besides playing an essential role in the new project closure process, lessons learned are real lightweight business objects that are fully reportable using Planforge's flexible report wizard.
"This is a major first step to preserving important project know-how and providing transparency and important learnings to all project stakeholders. Learning from past mistakes and applying successes to future projects is becoming a key success factor," stated Dieter Freismuth, CTO of ONEPOINT.
Modernized Change Requests
Another success factor is effective change request management. By completely redesigning the way change requests are entered and displayed in Planforge, ONEPOINT has managed to incorporate latest best practices while simplifying the user interface. ONEPOINT made change requests more dynamic by allowing project managers to delegate ownership and prioritize changes. Additionally, the Planforge platform now includes a built-in, customizable standard report for a change request.
RACI
Other enhancements include support for RACI, enabling project managers to improve their overview of team responsibilities for complex projects and programs.
Availability
Planforge is available for free for up to 4 users both as a cloud service and on-premises. ONEPOINT also provides different plans for extended connectivity, including a bidirectional integration to Atlassian's Jira. Sign up now at www.planforge.io.

Octane AI Launches Phoenix, an AI Quiz Builder That Builds, Checks and Improves Quizzes for Shopify Brands21.10.2026 20:15:00 EEST | Press release
Octane AI, the quiz and zero-party data platform for Shopify brands, launched Phoenix in October, its biggest release to date. Merchants describe the quiz they want or upload what they already have, and Phoenix builds it, checks it, personalizes the results and keeps improving it with experiments. One beta customer turned a single document into a complete product-launch quiz: “I attached it to Phoenix, and it built the whole thing, all the pages. It understood everything, not just the text but the logic behind it.” Across all live Octane AI quizzes, 15% of shoppers who finish a quiz place an order. Yet building one has meant hours of writing rules by hand, custom code for design and clicking through every path to find broken results. Phoenix handles those hard parts, from building a quiz to improving it after launch. “Since day one, we've kept track of every piece of feedback from our merchants: what frustrates them and what they wish Octane AI could do. Phoenix is the result, and it k
