About Awork
awork is a cloud-based project management and work management platform developed by awork GmbH, a Hamburg, Germany-based SaaS company founded around 2019. It is purpose-built for agencies and project-based teams that need to manage complex client projects across internal staff and external collaborators such as freelancers and clients. The platform combines task management, project planning (Kanban boards, Gantt/timeline views, milestone tracking), integrated time tracking, workload and capacity planning, and reporting into a single tool. External collaborators (clients, freelancers) can be added to projects at no additional per-seat cost, which is a frequently cited differentiator. The UI is consistently described by reviewers as clean and modern. awork exposes a public REST API (documented at developers.awork.com) that uses OAuth 2.0 and JSON serialization. The API supports filtering, pagination, webhooks, and follows RESTful conventions. An OpenAPI specification is published at api.awork.com/openapi/v1. This directly contradicts one secondary review that claimed no API exists; the official developer portal and GitHub repository (awork-io/awork) confirm the API is live and maintained. The company raised a EUR 5 million Series A in January 2023 led by Hi Inov-Dentressangle and Swiss Post Ventures. As of 2025 the platform serves over 60,000 users across more than 10,000 teams, with approximately 53 employees and estimated annual revenue around USD 7.6 million. awork is ISO 27001-certified, GDPR-compliant, and runs on Microsoft Azure infrastructure in Germany. In OMR Reviews' software ranking it holds first place across the project management and agency software categories in the German market.
