For IT consultancies & web agencies
Agency Operating System för IT-konsultbolag
Stäng loopen mellan leverans och affärsstyrning — chatt, agile, dokument, uppdrag och kundportal i en plattform.
You buy a license and run KernelWork where your security and procurement story demands — most often on infrastructure you control. Prefer we operate an isolated footprint, or need a fast start? Dedicated hosting and shared cloud are the same product with a different operator.
Licensed modules across execution, governance, and client transparency — one admin surface for IT consultancies and web agencies.

Purpose-built for multi-client delivery teams — not adapted from a single-team tool.
The Agency Operating System
Licensed modules. Three layers. One closed loop.
IT consultancies lose margin in the gaps between tools. KernelWork closes the loop across execution, governance, and client transparency — so every billable hour stays visible from SOW to sign-off — including client-ready PDFs on a schedule when you enable them.
Execution
Deliver the work.
Chat and video indexed by engagement. Sprint boards beside the stand-up channel. Living documentation that stays current with the work.
- Chat, Video Calls & Calendar
- Agile Boards
- Living Docs
Governance
Run the business.
Engagements with budget and rates, time approval, invoicing from approved hours, burn and portfolio views, bench and capacity — plus branded PDF steering reports and optional scheduled email delivery.
- Financial Oversight
- Resource Planning
- Secure Asset Vault
Transparency
Earn client trust.
Client portal and unified search in the workspace today; white-label depth and KernelAI-assisted workflows continue to expand.

Client-ready outputs
Branded steering-committee PDFs, draft approval before send, and scheduled delivery over email — so governance is in-product and on the record when the engagement demands it.
Why KernelWork
Close the loop. Eliminate the context-switching tax.
IT consultancies pay twice for fragmentation: once in software licenses, again in lost productivity from constant context-switching. Every hour a consultant spends hunting for information across disconnected tools is a billable hour that did not deliver value.
KernelWork consolidates the entire engagement lifecycle into a single tenant — licensed modules across three layers, one admin surface, one security story. Standard procurement is a flat license on infrastructure you control; dedicated or shared cloud uses the same product when you want KernelWork to operate the footprint instead. New hires onboard once. Module toggles let you run lean for content retainers and activate the full suite when the statement of work demands it.
Licensed product. Your footprint.
Self-hosted first — dedicated or shared cloud when we operate it for you.
Most security-conscious consultancies standardize on a commercial license and their own regions, keys, and subprocessors story. When you still want isolation but not your own ops, we run a dedicated footprint. Shared multi-tenant cloud stays the fastest way to evaluate or support lean teams — same modules, different hosting contract.
Every mode ships the same modules: one tenant for your consultancy, isolated workspaces per client engagement, module toggles per SOW, and per-seat licensing for delivery staff (confirm guest-seat rules on your order form). Only who runs the infrastructure changes.
Your license. Your infrastructure.
Install KernelWork on compute, storage, and regions you control. You supply Postgres, object storage, networking, and keys; we supply the software, updates, and commercial support under a flat annual license — the standard path for sovereignty-minded buyers.
- Full control of data path and subprocessors narrative
- Docker Compose baseline — production-hardened
- Flat annual license per production cluster
- Your PostgreSQL, your object store, your regions
- Optional professional services for deploy and onboarding
Isolation without running it yourself.
Dedicated database and compute operated by KernelWork — for retainers or DPAs that require separation from shared multi-tenant pools, while you keep a simpler ops burden than self-hosting.
- Isolated database — no neighbor tenants on your cluster
- Dedicated compute and media infrastructure
- VPC peering available on enterprise terms
- Named onboarding contact and DPA pathway
Shared cloud: evaluate fast, stay lean.
Multi-tenant infrastructure we operate — pilots, demos, or agencies that do not yet need a dedicated or self-hosted footprint. Same product; hosting and contract terms differ.
- Fastest path to a working tenant
- Web, desktop, and mobile clients included
- Per-seat billing on shared infrastructure
- Module toggles per engagement

Delivery teams live in the browser; principals and project leads benefit from desktop notifications and a dedicated window that is not lost in another tab. The same application powers both — native shells add tray quick-join, keyboard shortcuts, and OS-level attention cues for high-volume delivery environments.
Trusted operations
Built for delivery leads who own the outcome.
KernelWork is built for consultancies and agencies running parallel client engagements — where clarity for your team matters more than splashy vertical marketing. You still get the same serious stack underneath when regulators show up on a project.
