Core building blocks

Agency

Your root workspace. Every account starts here. Contains all organizations, teams, and projects.

Organization

A sub-workspace inside your Agency. Use one per client, department, or product line.

Team

A group of members assigned to work on projects. Controls who can access what.

Project

The primary unit of work. Has a timeline, milestones, tasks, and a live Pace indicator.

Milestone

A phase or checkpoint inside a project. Can contain tasks or stand alone.

Task

The smallest unit of work. Lives inside a milestone or directly at the project level.

Pace

A real-time indicator comparing actual vs planned progress. Unique to AxisPace.
