Plane Commercial v3.0.0 is live. Our biggest self-hosted update yet.

Plane Commercial v3.0.0 is here, bringing a stronger foundation for teams that run Plane on their own infrastructure.

This release expands what self-hosted teams can control inside Plane: how work is structured across a workspace, how access is managed, how workflows run, how customer requests connect to execution, how progress is reported, and how AI helps teams move faster without leaving Plane.

From native desktop access and workspace-level governance to advanced permissions, workflow automation, dashboards, Plane AI, and developer integrations, v3.0.0 is built for teams that want to scale their work systems without giving up control over deployment, data, or process.

Plane Desktop

Plane now runs as a native desktop app for self-hosted teams, making it easier to keep Plane accessible throughout the workday without relying on browser tabs.

• Plane Desktop for self-hosted instances
  Plane is now available as a native desktop app for commercial self-hosted instances on macOS and Linux. Teams can connect directly to their Plane instance and see unread notification badges on the dock or taskbar.

Workspace governance

As teams grow, project structures can become inconsistent across the workspace. Plane v3.0.0 gives admins more control at the workspace level, so common structures can be defined once and reused across projects.

• Workspace-level work item types
  Define work item types once at the workspace level and reuse them across projects. Teams no longer need to recreate common types such as Bug, Story, Task, or Epic separately for each project.

• Workspace-level automations
  Create automations once at the workspace level and reuse them across projects. This helps teams reduce duplicate rules and keep workflow behavior consistent across the workspace.

• Work item type hierarchy 
  Set parent and child rules between work item types, so that a Feature can contain Stories and a Task never contains a Feature. Once the rules are set, Plane applies them while creating work items, adding sub-items, changing types, running bulk operations, and importing work.

• Project and work item type context for custom properties 
  Custom properties carry the context of the project and type they belong to, so a property means the same thing everywhere it appears.

• Epics now work like other work items
  Epics now behave like regular work items rather than existing as a separate concept. They support custom properties, layouts, filters, and relations, appear directly in the work item list, and existing epics, comments, updates, and initiative scope carry over.

For more details, see Workspace work item types, workspace automation, and work item type hierarchy.

Permissions and access controls

This release gives every workspace a clearer access model and gives Enterprise Grid teams more flexibility for custom permissions.

• Role-Based Access Control
  RBAC is now the default access model in every Plane workspace. Each user has a role at the workspace and project level, and that role defines what they can view, create, edit, manage, or administer.

• Granular Access Control
  Enterprise Grid customers can create custom roles by combining permission schemes. This lets admins build reusable permission bundles instead of configuring every permission individually.

• IdP group sync, OIDC, SAML, and LDAP
  Connect Plane to your identity provider through OIDC, SAML, or LDAP. With IdP group sync, teams can automatically manage users, groups, roles, and project memberships from their existing identity system.

For more details, see roles and permissions.

Customer requests

Customer feedback often sits outside the work tracker, making it harder to connect incoming demand with the work that addresses it. Plane v3.0.0 brings that context closer to execution.

• Customer requests on work items
  Customer requests can now be linked and tracked directly on work items. This helps teams connect customer demand to the features, bugs, improvements, or delivery items being planned and shipped.
  

Workflows and automations

Plane v3.0.0 gives teams more flexibility in how work moves across states, processes, and external systems, without forcing every team into the same workflow.

• Multiple workflows
  Different work item types and teams can now follow different workflows inside the same project. Bugs, features, support requests, and design tasks can each have their own states and transitions.

• Scheduled automations
  Automations can now run on a schedule instead of only reacting to work item updates. Teams can create daily, weekly, or recurring rules for follow-ups, cleanups, reminders, or process checks.

• Send webhooks from workflows
  Automation rules can now include a send webhook step. When a work item matches the rule conditions, Plane can call an external endpoint to trigger downstream systems, notifications, or custom workflows.

• Custom relations between work items
  Teams can define custom relationship types between work items, such as depends on, duplicates, or tested by. This helps teams model dependencies and collaboration patterns more clearly.

• Parallel cycles
  Teams can run multiple active cycles within the same project. Each cycle keeps its own scope, timeline, and progress, making it easier to manage parallel streams of work.

For more details, see workflows and approvals, custom automations, custom relations, and parallel cycles.

Dashboards and reporting

Reporting becomes harder when teams scale across projects, workstreams, and stakeholders. Plane v3.0.0 gives teams more flexible dashboards for shared visibility, private analysis, and precise reporting across work.

• Shared dashboards
  Share dashboards with your team to create a common view of project progress, metrics, and insights across the workspace.

• Private dashboards
  Build dashboards privately before sharing them with others. This gives users space to refine reports, test views, and prepare dashboards before making them visible to the wider team.

• Shared collections
  Teams can now group dashboards into shared collections, making it easier to organize related reports and share them with the right people.
• Teamspaces timeline layout
  Teamspaces now support the timeline layout, giving teams a time-based way to plan, review, and track work across projects and workstreams.
• PQL support for dashboard widget filters
  Dashboard widget filters now support Plane Query Language. Teams can write precise filter conditions for dashboards rather than relying solely on preset filter options.

• Dashboard exports and publishing
  Dashboards can now be exported as PDFs and published to a public URL once shared, making reports easier to circulate when needed.

For more details, see dashboards and Plane Query Language.

Smarter Plane AI

Plane AI can now help teams do more inside Plane, from editing pages and generating charts to building queries, showing the logic behind responses, and running trusted workflows.

• Plane AI auto mode
  Plane AI can now execute trusted workflows end-to-end without requesting confirmation after each action. Teams can switch back to manual review whenever they need closer control.

• AI-powered label predictions
  Plane AI can now suggest labels while work items are being created or updated. This helps teams classify work faster without manually scanning through the full label list.
• Estimates and archives support
  Plane AI now works with estimates and archived work items, so teams can use AI across more planning context and historical work.
• Charts in Build mode
  Plane AI can now create charts in Build mode, helping teams turn workspace data into visual breakdowns directly inside the AI conversation.
• Edit Pages with Plane AI
  Use Plane AI to rewrite, refine, restructure, or add content to Pages without switching context. The changes can be applied directly inside Plane.

• Interactive charts in Plane AI
  Plane AI can generate interactive charts from workspace data, helping teams explore trends, compare progress, and understand work patterns through conversation.

• Text-to-PQL
  Describe the data you want in plain English, and Plane AI turns it into a PQL query. This helps users build powerful filters without having to learn the query syntax first.

• PQL query visibility and view blocks
  Plane AI now shows the PQL query behind its responses, so users can verify and refine the results. It can also display PQL view blocks directly in chat and turn those results into saved views.

• PQL in external APIs 
  Rich filters and PQL support come to the work item list APIs, so integrations and scripts can filter work items with the same query language used in the product.

For more details, see Plane AI and Plane Query Language.

Developer integrations

Plane v3.0.0 brings Plane closer to the tools developers already use for code, branches, pull requests, reviews, and self-hosted development workflows.

• Bitbucket integration
  Connect Bitbucket Cloud and Bitbucket Data Center with Plane to link repositories, branches, pull requests, and work items across cloud and self-hosted environments.

• Cursor agent
  The Cursor agent brings Plane work items into the Cursor IDE. Developers can create or open work items, link branches, update states, and keep pull requests connected to the right work item without leaving the editor.

• MCP applications
  Publish MCP applications directly from Plane through the API or UI, so MCP-compatible tools and agents can read from and act on Plane workspace data through a standard interface.

• More updates across GitHub, Slack, APIs, and imports
  GitHub sync now supports assignees and table markdown, Slack thread links can be added to work items, and imports can resume after a timeout. External API v1 also supports Webhooks, Automations, Collections, and Scripts.

For more details, see Bitbucket, Cursor, and MCP connectors.

Built to scale with self-hosted teams

Plane Commercial v3.0.0 is built for teams that need their work systems to scale with the same control they expect from their infrastructure.

As work grows across projects, teams, customers, workflows, reports, and AI-assisted execution, self-hosted teams need more than a place to track tasks. They need a system they can govern, secure, automate, extend, and trust inside their own environment.

That is what this release strengthens.

With v3.0.0, Plane gives self-hosted teams stronger workspace foundations, deeper access control, more flexible workflows, better visibility, connected customer context, smarter AI, and closer integration with developer tools, all while keeping deployment, data, and process control with the teams running Plane.
