Free timeline maker: lay out phases and milestones visually.
Stretch your project across an infinite canvas: phases as frames, milestones as notes, dependencies as connector lines. When dates get real, tickets with due dates and assignees turn the timeline into a plan.

Open a free board and sketch your first phases in minutes, then refine as dates land.

How it works
How to make a timeline.
Three steps from rough phases to a plan with dates.
1
Block out the phases
Create a free board and lay out your phases left to right using frames or walls. A six-week sprint and a two-year roadmap fit equally well.
2
Mark milestones and dependencies
Drop a note for every milestone and deliverable, then draw connector lines to show what depends on what. Color-code by team, track, or risk.
3
Add dates and share
Attach tickets with due dates and assignees to the work that is committed, then share a view-only link or export the timeline as a PDF or image for stakeholders.

Plan productions phase by phase.
Film and video projects live or die on sequencing. Map development, pre-production, shoot days, and post along one axis, and keep scripts, references, and shot lists on the same board as the dates that govern them.
Run campaign timelines your team can see.
Launches involve a dozen moving parts across content, design, and channels. A visual timeline shows what ships when, connector lines expose the dependencies, and tickets with assignees make it clear who owns each milestone.
Zoom from the year to the month.
Because the canvas is infinite, one board can hold the whole year and the detail of a single month. Keep the annual arc at the top, then expand each month below it with its own milestones, notes, and tasks.
Keep the timeline next to the work.
A timeline in a slide goes stale the day after the meeting. On a Storyflow board it sits beside the briefs, boards, and assets it schedules, so when a milestone moves, the change happens where the team already works.
Timelines you can rearrange like a wall of cards.
Storyflow lets you build timelines the way you would on a wall: phases blocked out left to right, milestones pinned along the line, dependencies drawn as connector lines between them. Notes hold the detail, colors separate tracks, and frames keep each phase tidy. It is a flexible visual timeline, not a locked grid, so restructuring the plan is as fast as dragging things around.
A free timeline creator with no credit card required.
Sign up free and start planning immediately. The free plan includes unlimited boards, basic AI usage, and 20 file uploads for the briefs and assets your milestones point at. Share a view-only link so stakeholders always see the current plan, or export the timeline as a PDF or image for decks and reports.
From milestones to accountable tasks.
A timeline tells you when; tickets tell you who. In Storyflow you can attach tickets with assignees and due dates directly to the milestones they deliver, and manage the day-to-day on a kanban board beside the timeline. The plan and the work stay on one board instead of drifting apart across tools.
What creators are saying
Join early creators getting structured workspaces and AI that remembers their projects
“Storyflow has sped up my workflow by at least 3x, which means more flow state and more projects I can actually ship. It truly changed the way me and my team create.”
Reilin Joey
Director & YouTuber
“One prompt gets me a structured board. But the tactics are my favorite. I run my YouTube scripts through them and my intros and retention got better. It's amazing.”
Justkay
YouTuber & Freelance Filmmaker
“I used to juggle five apps to plan a project. Now I describe what I am making and get boards, lists, and a schedule. All in one place.”
