Overview
Float is a market-leading resource management platform engineered for agencies, consulting firms, and internal creative teams to optimize workforce utilization. By 2026, Float has positioned itself as a data-centric hub for capacity planning, moving beyond simple scheduling into predictive analytics. Its architecture supports real-time synchronization across global teams, offering a granular view of human capital allocation. The platform's technical core is built to handle complex multi-project environments where dependencies and skill-based matching are critical. It distinguishes itself from general project management tools like Asana or Trello by focusing exclusively on the 'who' and 'when' rather than just the 'what.' With a robust REST API and deep integrations into the dev-stack (Jira, GitHub) and communication-stack (Slack), Float provides a single source of truth for availability. Its 2026 market position is solidified by enterprise-grade security features, including SOC2 compliance and advanced SSO, making it a preferred choice for large-scale operations requiring high data integrity and auditability in resource forecasting.
