Taskade

  • Taskade (Taskade Inc., NYC, 2017, Active, Not Shut Down)

    Status: Active (founded 2017 by Stan Tam & John Hu; NYC HQ, remote-first; taskade.com reachable 2026-08, AI layers rolling since 2023, Taskade Genesis​ app-builder shipped 2025–2026). Category ai-productivity-data; pipeline_stage=none. Not a pure PM tool, not a pure LLM chat​ — it is an AI-native workspace that fuses Kanban/list/mind-map/docs with custom autonomous agents, durable automations (100+ integrations), and a prompt-to-app builder (Genesis)​ on top of a TSK-1 router across GPT/Claude/Gemini/open-weights. “AI” here = per-agent model selection + persistent agent memory + agentic workflows, not a sidebar copilot.

    1. Introduction

    Taskade is the “AI OS for small teams”: one workspace where the same data renders as List, Board, Mind Map, Org Chart, Calendar, Table, Gantt (7 views), with real-time cursors, built-in chat/video, and an agent layer that can research, draft, triage, and execute multi-step workflows grounded in your workspace files. Describe a project in plain English → Taskade drafts the outline, tasks, owners, checklists. Describe an app → Genesis​ spins up a working dashboard/CRM/tracker with custom domain, auth, and agents wired in. Agents carry 30+ built-in tools, persistent cross-session memory, and can trigger automations conversationally (“what orders came in today?” → agent calls Stripe/Sheets). It sits between Notion AI (docs-first, weak agents) and ClickUp (PM-deep, AI add-on) and Motion (calendar-auto, no app-builder) — cheaper per seat than all three because AI is bundled, not per-head taxed.

    2. Core Features

    Layer Capability Notes

    Genesis app builder 1 prompt → app w/ DB+auth+custom domain+agents; 150K+ apps built Business+ for custom domain
    AI credits Monthly pool powers agents/automations/Genesis builds; TSK-1 auto-routes by task weight Free = 3,000 one-time; Pro = 50,000/mo
    MCP Hosted MCP (beta, paid) + self-host @taskade/mcp-server (all plans) + Enterprise BYOM LLMs (Claude/Cursor) act on workspace
    Admin/security SAML SSO (Business+), SCIM (Enterprise), AES-256, SOC 2 Type II aligned, 7 RBAC roles

    3. Pricing (2026-08, USD, annual billing — Taskade moved from per-seat to workspace+AI-credit​ model in 2026)

    Tier Price (annual eff/mo) Seats AI credits Key gates
    Free $0 2 3,000 one-time​ (no refill) 1 agent, 3 Genesis apps, 3 automations, 250 MB KB, no MCP hosted, no SSO
    Starter (legacy) $6/mo 3 10,000/mo Unlimited apps, 5 GB KB; still sold to legacy users, not front-door recommended
    Pro​ ★ $10/mo 10 50,000/mo Unlimited agents/automations, 100 GB KB, remove branding, 100+ integrations, HTTP/webhook
    Business $25/mo Unlimited 150,000/mo Custom domain, white-label, SAML SSO, admin dashboard, 1 TB KB, priority support
    Max $200/mo Unlimited 400,000/mo Autonomous 24/7 agents, extended thinking (Claude), always-on orchestration, 5 TB
    Enterprise From $400/mo​ (custom SLA) Unlimited 1,100,000/mo SCIM, BYOK, dedicated CSM, 10 TB, MCP governance

    pricing_type=workspace-subscription + ai-credit-pool; starting_price=$0; AI bundled in every paid tier​ (inverse of Notion AI $10 add-on / ClickUp Brain add-on); overage = pay-as-you-go credit packs; published Genesis apps keep running if credits hit zero.

    5. Reviews (2026)

    Source Rating Signal
    G2 / Capterra 4.4–4.6/5 “AI agents actually touch tasks, not just chat”; con = credit burn opaque, docs shallower than Notion
    LaunchToolsAI Only Taskade + Reclaim give useful free AI; “agents aren’t perfect but save more time than they cost in review”
    AI Funnel Insider “AI OS or overhyped?” verdict: earns keep when agents write into structured work you defined; worse than base LLM as a chat window
    ToolWorthy Best-for-small-teams replacing task+doc+AI subs; ding = pricing restructured ≥1×/yr (Starter→Pro→credit model)
    Trustpilot thin 2.x Cancel/upgrade confusion during plan migration

    Verdict: best price-to-agent ratio for 3–15 person teams who want agents inside the work, not beside it. Gripes = AI credit accounting opaque​ (model X costs N credits, no live forecast), docs/DB weaker than Notion​ (no rollups/relations/wiki graph), integrations thinner than Zapier/ClickUp​ (route long-tail via Zapier/Make), plan/pricing churn​ (budget for another reprice), free credits one-time not monthly.

    6. Best For / Not For

    Best For Not For
    Solo ops / agencies / 3–15 person remote teams wanting tasks+docs+agents+apps in one Enterprises needing portfolio reporting, resource capacity, audit-heavy governance (→ Asana/Monday/ClickUp)
    Non-devs building internal tools via Genesis (client portals, CRMs, trackers) Teams whose brain is a relational Notion wiki with linked DBs/rollups
    PMs who like flipping List↔Mind-Map↔Gantt on same data Calendar-auto-scheduling primary need (→ Motion/Reclaim)
    AI-agent builders who want per-agent model pick + persistent memory High-volume cross-app automation (cheaper on Make/n8n/Zapier)
    Founders prototyping MVPs without engineering Air-gapped/offline-first orgs (cloud-only)

    7. Competitors (Lane Map)

    Lane Tool Starts Taskade’s edge / gap
    AI workspace + agents Notion AI $10 seat + $10 AI add-on Notion wins docs/DB/wiki; Taskade wins agents-in-tasks + Genesis + flat price
    All-in-one PM ClickUp + Brain² $7 seat + $5–9 AI ClickUp deeper PM/reporting/time; Taskade cheaper AI, lighter UX
    Calendar-auto Motion $19 flat Motion owns auto-scheduling; Taskade owns agentic work + apps
    Visual PM Monday.com $12 seat Monday stronger dashboards/enterprise; Taskade AI-native + app builder
    Traditional PM Asana Intelligence $10.99 seat, AI on $24.99 Asana governance at scale; Taskade 10 seats/$10
    Automation glue Zapier / Make / n8n $0–19 They win integration breadth/volume; Taskade wins in-workspace agent context
    Agent builders ChatGPT/Claude agents, Dify, CrewAI $20 / code Deeper agent memory/orchestration; Taskade = agents + tasks + UI in one
    App builders Bolt / Lovable / V0 / Replit $0–30 Code-grade apps; Genesis = no-code internal tools w/ workspace data
