# Leera > Plan projects, use AI assistance, manage test cases, and connect documents in Leera. One workspace for software teams, available in the cloud or self-hosted. Leera combines project planning, project-scoped AI, test management, and documents. Cloud and self-hosted deployments have different billing and operational responsibilities. Native desktop and mobile clients are in development; the browser is the currently available access path. AI chat responds to requests. Recurring autonomous work requires a configured agent or coordination workflow. AI can use enabled tools to create or update workspace records; permissions and controls depend on the workflow. Model access and data handling depend on the configured provider and deployment. Cloud and standard Self Hosted use Leera branding, including Leera AI. White-label Self Hosted and Enterprise hide the Leera name and vendor links in the application; custom branding follows the license entitlement. The AI lotus icon stays the same across all plans. Pricing, licenses, entitlements, integrations and availability can change. Use the linked product pages and the current pricing catalog to verify details. Self-hosted free core still requires infrastructure, operations and any AI provider costs. Examples and generated illustrations are explanatory and do not operate on a workspace. ## Features - [leera AI](https://leera.io/features/leera-ai): Use Leera AI with project context to answer questions, draft issues, suggest subtasks, create reports, and support recurring team workflows. - [AI Agents](https://leera.io/features/ai-agents): Schedule project checks, backlog reviews, and updates with Leera AI Agents.
