1

Onboarding

Sequelizer helps hybrid teams plan projects with AI assistance. After you sign in, you land in your workspace with the sidebar for projects and admin areas, and for natural-language help across planning, estimation, and delivery.

Use the project list to open a project, switch views (list, Gantt, summary), and collaborate. Team leads configure capabilities, roles, locations, rate cards, and members so estimates and assignments stay aligned with how your organization works.
