From bcb6d9991f0de33cab0e0b0f2aa4926e4f2bbaef Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Matthew Valancy Date: Wed, 17 Jun 2026 11:05:46 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] chore(brand): "management", not "project management" MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Rebrand away from "project management" / "project management revolution" to a short, general "management" framing (we manage projects, requirements, and more — not an "everything tool"). Updates user-facing copy (title, meta, manifest, package description, README tagline, Signup line, email footers, onboarding) and docs. No behavior change.
