Developed by the creative agency 5ivecanons, OCDBees brings simpler project management and a community-first mission to Adobe MAX.
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – Jacksonville creative agency 5ivecanons is bringing more than a decade of software development to Adobe MAX in Miami Beach this November, officially launching OCDBees, a project management platform designed to make managing work a whole lot simpler.
OCDBees first debuted as a startup at Jacksonville’s One Spark festival, where it picked up a following of local beta users. Since then, it has been tested with other creative agencies and sharpened through daily use, as the 5ivecanons team honed in on what makes it work.
Today, it serves as the operational backbone of the agency. Every team member relies on OCDBees to manage assignments, prioritize workloads, track deadlines and keep projects moving. It’s not another piece of software the team occasionally checks. It’s how the business runs.
OCDBees organizes clients, projects, tasks, assignments, deadlines and priorities in one straightforward workspace. Integrations with team messaging and cloud file storage services help connect the tools businesses already use.
The platform also introduces a more conversational way to manage work through integrations with AI assistants such as ChatGPT and Claude. Teams can review workloads, identify priorities and manage tasks through natural language, bringing project management into the tools and conversations they’re already having.
The launch follows another milestone for 5ivecanons, which recently celebrated six years as a four-day-workweek, fully remote, family-first, community-centric, internationally award-winning creative agency that’s pretty serious about hyphens. OCDBees helps make that possible by keeping work organized, priorities clear and everyone accountable, so the team can deliver great work for clients while making more time for family, community and life outside the office.
Although developed within an advertising agency, the platform isn’t just for creative professionals. Electrical contractors coordinating jobs, nonprofits organizing programs, freelancers balancing clients and small businesses managing daily operations can all benefit from a simpler approach to project management.
And while OCDBees is designed to help people work more efficiently, the company has a larger ambition: to build a project management platform for good. As OCDBees grows, the company aims to direct a portion of its profits toward community-focused organizations.
“We built a product we love using, and it powers our agency every day. Now we’re ready to share it with the world,” said Adam Schaffer, chief creative officer at 5ivecanons. “And let’s face it, the world could use some help. We’re not going to fix everything with a project management tool, but if we can make people’s work easier, keep it affordable and use our success to support organizations doing good in their communities, that’s something worth building.”
OCDBees is priced at $3 per user, per month, and includes a free 30-day trial as part of its onboarding process. 5ivecanons will showcase the platform at Adobe MAX, Nov. 10-12 at the Miami Beach Convention Center, where attendees can experience OCDBees firsthand at booth 1024.
