Orgnise is an AGPL-3.0 licensed, TypeScript knowledge base and project management application built on Next.js, MongoDB, and NextAuth.js, aimed at small to mid-sized teams that want to create, collaborate on, and organise wikis, technical documentation, policies, announcements, and project tasks in one place.
What it is
Orgnise describes itself as an all-in-one knowledge, doc, and project management system. The README frames it as a knowledge base management app "where knowledge and collaboration meet," in which dynamic pages give a team a place to create, capture, and collaborate on any project or idea. Its stated purpose is to create a single source of truth for important information: use-cases, wikis, tech documentation, company information, policies, guidelines, and announcements. It is written in TypeScript and React, styled with Tailwind and Shadcn, stores data in MongoDB, handles authentication through NextAuth.js, and is deployed on Vercel.
The concrete problem it addresses is fragmentation. When project status lives in one tool and institutional knowledge lives in another, team members lose visibility into what has already been decided and written down. Orgnise combines the two concerns in a single application, so a team can track the progress of projects and tasks while keeping the surrounding documentation in the same place, and every member has access to the information the README says they need to do their best work. Rather than replacing a named product, it replaces the split between a task tracker and a separate documentation store with one repository of record.
Key capabilities
- Dynamic pages that give a team a place to create, capture, and collaborate on any project or idea.
- A knowledge base intended as a single source of truth for wikis, tech documentation, company information, policies, guidelines, and announcements.
- Project and task progress tracking, so teams can see where work stands.
- Sharing and structuring of work so each team member has visibility into institutional knowledge.
- Authentication via NextAuth.js and persistent storage in MongoDB.
- Deployment through Vercel, matching the Next.js application framework listed in the tech stack.
- A contributor workflow built on GitHub issues and pull requests, with any bug report directed to the project issue tracker.
Who uses it and how
- Teams that need internal documentation and project tracking side by side, rather than split across two separate services.
- Engineering groups documenting use-cases and tech documentation alongside the projects those documents describe.
- Organisations that publish policies, guidelines, and announcements internally and want a single place where staff can find them.
- Teams already deploying on Vercel, since the README lists Vercel as the deployment target and the stack is Next.js throughout.
- Groups willing to fork and run their own instance; the repository shows 37 forks against 247 stars, and the README explicitly invites pull requests for features, improvements, and bug fixes.
Getting started
The README excerpt provided here does not include install or setup commands; it points to deployment on Vercel as the hosting path and lists a hosted option at https://go.orgnise.in/home. A self-hoster should therefore expect to wire up MongoDB and NextAuth.js configuration before a first run, and should check the repository directly for setup steps.
How it compares
The facts provided name no paid products that Orgnise replaces, and they name no comparable open-source tools either. It therefore stands alone in this registry on the evidence given, with its AGPL-3.0 licence and Vercel-plus-MongoDB stack as the distinguishing details available.
When to use it — and when not to
A self-hoster must operate a MongoDB database and configure NextAuth.js authentication, and must either run the Next.js application themselves or deploy it to Vercel, so this is not a zero-infrastructure install. Teams that need a vendor-supported product with a published support contract, or that cannot accept the AGPL-3.0 licence terms, should look elsewhere. The main weakness visible in the facts is documentation depth: the README excerpt covers purpose and stack but supplies no installation or configuration instructions, so anyone evaluating it should expect to read the source and the repository history rather than a setup guide.
