What is Basecamp?

Basecamp is the leading web-based project management and collaboration tool. Check it out.

What is Headquarters?

Headquarters is an iPhone app for Basecamp. It combines the ability to manage Basecamp with the feel of a "Get Things Done" app.

What was missing from other apps?

In a word: dashboard. We wanted a single screen for what you should be worried about right now. Everything else is just noise.

Why Headquarters and not another app?

Ultimately, we designed Headquarters to use ourselves. We tried to make a fast, responsive app that was intuitive to use. We can now look at a single screen and manage everything that's important. Mission accomplished.

Why is it "The app for people who get things done"?

Headquarters has a very "get things done" (GTD) feel. We looked at Basecamp and thought "why isn't this more like a get things done app?" That's exactly what you're trying to do after all, isn't it? So, we designed our app from the ground up around productivity, relevance, and ease of use.

What's the difference between Lite and Pro versions?

Both apps are fully functional, but Lite gives you a great opportunity to "try-before-you-buy". The Lite dashboard still shows you items from all of your projects, but only allows you to explore a single project and add a single account. It's perfect for the Basecamp Free Plan.

Why should I buy the Pro version?

Headquarters Pro is for anyone who has a paid Basecamp account. It has support for multiple accounts and projects, and additional features in the future like time tracking.

What else is coming in the future?

• Support for time tracking
• User interface updates
• Responses to feedback you give us at our help desk
