A ready-made Storyflow board for planning a website build, with sections for project goals, sitemap and pages, design references, scope, milestones, and a launch checklist all on one canvas.
About this template
The Website Project Plan template gives you one canvas to run a website build from kickoff to launch. Instead of scattering the brief across docs, the sitemap in one tool, and references in a chat thread, you keep goals, scope, page structure, design references, and timeline side by side. Notes capture decisions and requirements, image blocks hold wireframe sketches and inspiration, and link blocks point to the staging site, the brand kit, the analytics dashboard, and competitor pages you want to study.
It is built for web and digital agencies, in-house web teams, freelance designers and developers, and founders planning their own site. Map the sitemap and page-by-page content needs, line up the design and copy tasks, set milestones for design, build, QA, and launch, and give clients or teammates a single board to review.
On the board you will find labeled sections for project goals and audience, a sitemap and page list, a design references and moodboard area, a scope and deliverables list, a milestone and timeline strip, and a launch checklist. Storyflow's AI assistant can read the active board to help you draft page outlines, tighten requirements, or list open questions while you plan.

Frequently asked questions
What is a Website Project Plan?
It is a single board that organizes everything needed to build a website: project goals and audience, a sitemap and page list, design references, scope and deliverables, milestones, and a launch checklist. In Storyflow it lives on an infinite canvas, so you can see the whole plan at once instead of splitting it across separate docs and tools.
Who is this template for?
Web and digital agencies, in-house web teams, freelance designers and developers, and founders planning their own site. Anyone responsible for scoping pages, sequencing design and build work, and steering a website to launch can use it.
Is the Website Project Plan template free?
Yes. Storyflow is free to start, so you can open this template, customize it on the canvas, and invite collaborators without paying upfront. Some advanced features are part of paid plans.
How is this different from a generic project tracker?
It is purpose-built for websites. The board is structured around a sitemap, page-level content needs, and design references, with build, QA, and launch milestones, so you plan the actual site instead of forcing web work into a generic task list.
Can the AI assistant help me fill it in?
Yes. Storyflow's AI assistant reads your active board and can help you draft page outlines, sharpen scope and requirements, or surface open questions. It assists your planning; it does not auto-build the finished website for you.
