Tempo

What it is for

Tempo is a hosted team-IDE kanban: you open a repo board and move tickets across To Do / Spec / Design / Build / Review / Merged, and Free is $0. Use it when the job is a factory board you start at a public $, not when you need a $0 local editor only.

Soft-note: the live product is a team software factory / IDE, not only the older “visual AI React editor” line. Public $ still prints on tempo.new/pricing.

What makes it unique: the cover is Tempo’s official hero-demo board (affan/havn-discovery-v2, columns To Do 2 / Spec 1 / Design 1 / Build 1 / Review 1 / Merged 2, cards Havn discovery flow v2 / Slack thread → issue sync, Search cards, Display, Ticket) from tempo.new/hero-demo-poster.webp — not a pricing card. The stage columns themselves are ops of the board.

Key features

• Stage columns — To Do / Spec / Design / Build / Review / Merged (cover still; product). One desk. Cover To Do 2 / Merged 2 sit here.
• Ticket cards — titled issues with labels (cover Havn discovery flow v2 / Slack thread → issue sync / Feedback). A card, not a Pro tile.
• Search cards — the filter on the board (cover Search cards). A search, not a test-cap meter.
• Repo chrome — affan/havn-discovery-v2 in the top bar (cover). A repo, not a Share button.
• Display — the view control on the same bar (cover Display). A view, not a 250-issue cap.
• Card meta — Feedback / Perf labels and assignee chips on the cards (cover). A meta desk, not a Ticket CTA.

Ticket / Share / Commit on the cover are CTAs (not desks). Free / Pro / Team tiles and 250 issues / 500 tests stay in Pricing. Agents that “do the work” are AI extras, not a sixth column we fold into To Do.

Who it's for

Best fit: product teams who will stay on Free at $0 (250 issues / 100 docs / 500 local tests/month / 7-day history) while they open a first stage board, then Pro at $50/month (1 user) when they need unlimited issues — not Team $200 unless they need 5 included users, and not Enterprise unless they buy the custom tile.

Pricing

Limitations / costs

• Free is 250 issues / 100 docs / 500 tests / 7-day history. Unlimited issues are Pro $50.
• Pro is 1 user. Extra seats are +$40/mo, not a flat workspace $.
• A factory kanban, not Cursor’s repo Agent. For that editor see Cursor.

Alternatives

• Cursor — a VS Code-fork Agent when you want published X Subscription cards, not Tempo’s To Do / Spec columns.
• Windsurf — a Cascade IDE when you want a published seat, not Pro $50 + +$40 extra user.
• Claude Code — a CLI agent when you want a terminal loop, not Merged 2.
