What Float is
Float gives agencies, professional services firms, and in-house delivery teams a live view of assignments, availability, utilization, delivery, and project margins. Teams can use availability, roles, and experience to plan capacity, then set a project’s price, budget, roles, and timeline baselines. AI-assisted staffing is available for project planning. Reports cover capacity, utilization, actuals, margin, and budget burn, and the API supports work with team data and project workflows. Integrations listed include Aprimo, Asana, Basecamp, ClickUp, Google Calendar, HubSpot, Jira, and Karbon, as well as Claude through Float MCP beta. Calendar sync and recurring tasks are supported. The iOS and Android apps let users check schedules, add time off, and log hours. Starter costs $7 a month per scheduled person; Pro costs $12 a month per scheduled person. Both have a free 30-day Pro trial that requires no credit card, and Float says trial data remains afterward. Enterprise pricing is by discussion.
