Taskade Genesis is the AI app builder in Taskade. One prompt can become a live app.

Every Taskade Genesis app can use:

• Workspace data in Taskade Projects
• AI agents that follow instructions, use tools, and keep memory
• Automations that run workflows across 100+ integrations

Create your first app →

Taskade Genesis builds apps on Workspace DNA:

Memory (Projects) — Structured data that stores and updates your records

Intelligence (Agents) — AI teammates that read context, decide, and act

Execution (Automations) — Workflows that run actions across 100+ integrations

Automations can write results back to projects. Agents can read that project data. The app uses the same workspace as its backend.

Taskade runs on TSK-1, the intelligence layer of your workspace. Use Auto to let Taskade choose a model, or pick a rung: TSK-Instant, TSK-Standard, TSK-Thinking, or TSK-Reasoning. TSK-1 uses 15+ frontier models from OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, and open-weight providers.

You can select a model per agent, automation, or conversation. Free workspaces pick among the lighter models. Paid plans unlock the premium models and add more credits and higher request capacity.

Your data is not used to train provider models. Providers operate under data processing agreements.

Vibe coding means you describe an app in natural language and let Taskade Genesis build it.

Describe a CRM, booking system, or dashboard. Taskade Genesis can create the interface, project data, and connected AI agents.

How it works:

• Describe your app in plain language
• Review the generated interface, data, and agents
• Ask Taskade EVE for changes in chat
• Publish the app and share a link

The app stays connected to your projects, agents, and automations. You do not need a separate host or deploy pipeline.

Try Vibe Coding →

Four steps to your first live app:

1. Define your idea Describe what you want to build. Be specific about the problem you're solving.

2. Let Taskade Genesis generate Taskade Genesis creates your app structure, pages, and connections. Use "Enhance Prompt" for better results.

3. Iterate in Preview Test your app. Use chat to make changes — one edit at a time. Check mobile view, forms, and notifications.

4. Publish and share Set visibility (public, password, team-only). Enable Share as Template separately if you want others to clone and remix your app.

Pro tips:

• Start with the business problem, not the features
• Use App Presets for common patterns
• Test forms and automations before publishing

Full tutorial →

Yes. Every Taskade Genesis app can be:

• Shared via public URL
• Embedded in websites and portals (JS widget or iframe)
• Cloned by others when you enable Share as Template
• Branded with custom themes, logos, and domains (Business+)

Visibility options:

• Public (anyone with link)
• Password-protected
• Team-only (workspace members)

Changes auto-publish in real-time, or you can enable manual publishing for more control.

Learn about publishing →

Yes. There are multiple ways to embed Taskade into your website or product:

AI Agent Widget — Embed as a chat popup on any website with a single script tag. Configure position, theme, and appearance. Perfect for customer support bots and on-site AI assistants.

Project Embeds — Embed any project as an interactive iframe for real-time collaboration directly in your site.

Published Apps — Share via public URL or publish to a custom domain (app.yourcompany.com on Business+).

App Kits — Bundle your entire workspace (projects, agents, automations, and apps) as a shareable template that others can fork and customize.

Explore the App Community →

Share your Taskade Genesis apps with the community in three steps:

1. Create and publish your app — Build your app and set it to public visibility.

2. Submit to the Community — Use the publish menu to submit your app for review. Enable Share as Template separately if you want it to be cloneable.

3. Get featured — Once approved, your app appears in the Community Gallery where others can discover and like it. Template-enabled apps also show a Clone action.

Community profiles include a reputation system — earn XP from views, likes, and installs to level up from Tinkerer to Visionary.

You can also create App Kits — bundled workspaces that package your projects, agents, automations, and apps together as a complete solution others can install.

Projects are structured data containers that store your information and serve as the memory layer of your workspace. Projects support 9 views: List, Board, Table, Mind Map, Docs (Beta), Gantt Chart, Calendar, Actionsheet, and Org Chart.

Apps are living software built by Taskade Genesis from a prompt. They have custom UI, logic, pages, forms, and embedded AI agents — and they connect back to your projects and automations.

Think of it this way: projects are your data, apps are your interface. An app might read from a project database, trigger automations, and use agents to process information — all wired together automatically.

Create your first app →

Taskade makes migration straightforward:

Import options:

• Markdown/text — Paste or import .md files directly into projects
• CSV — Import spreadsheet data into Table view
• Google Docs/Sheets — Connect via integration to sync content
• Notion — Export as Markdown, then import into Taskade projects
• Trello/Asana — Export as CSV, import into Board or Table view

Once imported, you can:

App Presets are pre-configured starting points for common app types. Instead of writing a prompt from scratch, choose a preset and customize it.

Popular presets include:

• CRM and sales pipeline
• Project tracker and kanban board
• Meeting scheduler and agenda
• Knowledge base and wiki
• Customer support portal
• Invoice and billing dashboard

Presets include pre-wired AI agents, automation triggers, and page layouts — so your app works out of the box. You can modify everything after generation.

Projects are living databases that power your Taskade Genesis apps. They're the Memory pillar of Workspace DNA.

Unlike simple notes or task lists, projects are structured data that:

• Sync in real-time between your app UI and the underlying data
• Switch views — List, Board, Table, Mind Map, Docs, Gantt Chart, Calendar, Actionsheet, and Org Chart
• Collaborate inline — @mentions, custom fields, and text highlights across all views
• Power automations — Trigger workflows when data changes
• Train AI agents — Agents can analyze, clean, classify, and predict using project data

Use cases:

• Booking systems with automated reminders
• Inventory trackers with stock alerts
• CRM pipelines with lead scoring
• Content calendars with publishing workflows

Import from CSV, Excel, or Google Sheets. Your data becomes intelligent.

Learn about Projects & Databases →

Agents are the reasoning layer of Taskade — the Intelligence pillar of Workspace DNA.

They're not chatbots. Agents learn from your workspace, make decisions, trigger automations, and evolve over time.

What agents can do:

• Research, plan, analyze, write, and code
• Execute custom commands and respond to triggers
• Use tools — Slack, email, web search, APIs, and 100+ integrations
• Collaborate with other agents in multi-agent teams
• Run automations and update project data
• Greet users with custom intros and conversation starters

How to train agents:

Upload files (PDFs, docs), paste URLs, add YouTube videos, or connect cloud drives (Google Drive, Dropbox, OneDrive). Agents build a knowledge base from your sources and get smarter with every interaction.

How to create:

• AI Agent Generator — Describe what you need in plain language
• Templates — Pre-built agent templates for common use cases
• Custom — Full control over personality, commands, tools, and knowledge

Build your first agent →

Yes. Every agent can be trained on your own knowledge sources:

• Files — PDFs, Word docs, spreadsheets, presentations
• URLs — Websites, documentation, knowledge bases
• YouTube — Video transcripts and content
• Cloud Drives — Google Drive, Dropbox, OneDrive

Agents also learn from your real-time project data — they can read, analyze, and act on the structured data in your workspace.

Each agent maintains short-term and long-term memory, so they remember context from previous conversations and get better over time.

Training is automatic — just add your sources and the agent builds its knowledge base.

Learn about agent knowledge →

Multi-Agent Orchestration lets you deploy multiple AI agents working together on tasks concurrently.

Three modes of collaboration:

• Single Agent, Multiple Tasks — Assign one agent to handle different tasks sequentially
• Multiple Agents, Concurrent — Deploy specialized agents on different tasks simultaneously
• Bulk Assignment — Select multiple items and assign an agent to all of them at once

Each agent has short-term and long-term memory, so they can review previous work, iterate on results, and coordinate through your shared workspace data.

Think of it as building an AI team — a researcher, a writer, and a reviewer can all work on the same project at the same time.

Learn about Multi-Agents →

Custom Tools extend what AI agents can do beyond conversation. Built-in capabilities include web search, code execution, file analysis, and connected-service actions; you can also create tools for your own workflows.

Built-in tools include:

• Web search and URL scraping
• Image generation and analysis
• Code execution
• File reading and writing
• Database queries

Custom tools let agents call external APIs, trigger automations, query databases, and interact with third-party services — all configured through a simple interface, no coding required.

Combined with slash commands and persistent memory, Custom Tools turn agents into autonomous workers that can research, decide, and act on your behalf.

Build Custom Tools →

Automations are the execution layer. They can keep workflows running after you leave the workspace.

Triggers include:

• Webhooks and API calls
• Form submissions
• Task and project events
• Scheduled times (hourly, daily, weekly, monthly)
• Agent chat completions
• 100+ integrations (Slack, Gmail, GitHub, Stripe, Calendly, and more)

Actions include:

• Run agent commands
• Send notifications (Slack, email, Discord, WhatsApp)
• Update databases and project data
• Branch with conditions and loop through data
• Scrape websites and call external APIs

Example workflows:

• Form submitted → AI summarizes → Slack notification
• Every Monday → Check project statuses → Generate report
• Stripe payment → Create account → Send onboarding email
• GitHub PR merged → Update project → Notify team

Build from scratch, generate with a prompt, or use templates. Automations can keep running after you close the tab.

Explore Automations →

Taskade automations connect to 100+ external services through built-in integrations and custom connectors:

Built-in integrations — Pre-configured connectors for Slack, Gmail, GitHub, Stripe, HubSpot, Discord, Google Sheets, Calendly, WordPress, and dozens more. Set up in seconds with OAuth authentication.

Webhooks — Receive data from any service that supports webhooks. Use as automation triggers or send data out to external endpoints.

HTTP requests — Call any REST API directly from automation steps. Send data, fetch results, and use responses in subsequent steps.

Custom Agent Tools — Give AI agents the ability to call external APIs as part of their reasoning and actions.

Connections support branching logic, loops, and error handling. You can build more than a single trigger and a single action.

Browse integrations →

Yes. Your data is never used to train AI models.

• Encrypted in transit and at rest (AES-256)
• Google CASA certified (OWASP ASVS Level 2)
• Data protection practices aligned with industry standards
• SOC 2 Type II compliance in progress
• SAML single sign-on available from Business up
• Agents only see what you give them access to

We partner with trusted AI providers (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google) under strict data processing agreements.

Learn more about security →

Yes — your data is always safe. Workspaces, projects, agents, apps, and automations remain fully intact when you switch or downgrade plans.

You keep full access to all your content. Premium features become read-only until you re-upgrade — but nothing is ever deleted.

Manage your plan →

Your workspace is the source of truth — the DNA — for everything in Taskade.

• Projects = your data (memory)
• Agents = your AI teammates (intelligence)
• Automations = your workflows (execution)

When you create a Taskade Genesis app, it connects to this foundation. Your workspace is your app's backend.

You can have multiple workspaces for different teams, clients, or use cases — all under one account.

Members have a Taskade account and are invited to your workspace. They can access all projects and teams within that workspace.

Guests are invited to specific projects only. They can view and collaborate on those projects, but can't access the full workspace.

Guests are free on all plans — only members count toward your plan limits.

Learn about permissions →

Go to your workspace, click the Share button, and send an invitation link or email.

Set a role for each member. Taskade uses a 7-tier role system from Owner to Viewer. See the permission guide for the exact labels.

Learn about roles →

Yes. Share individual projects without giving access to your entire workspace.

Share a project →

Yes. Taskade is built for teams of any size:

• Solo — Free plan for personal use
• Small teams — Pro ($10/mo billed annually, includes 10 users)
• Departments — Business ($25/mo billed annually) with SAML SSO, custom domains, and advanced controls
• Enterprise — SCIM user provisioning, custom SLA, dedicated support

Team members can share projects, AI agents, and automations. Workspaces use a 7-tier role system from Owner to Viewer.

API documentation →

Taskade is designed as an always-connected workspace — real-time sync, AI features, and live collaboration require an internet connection.

For offline access, you can:

• Export projects as PDF or Markdown for offline viewing
• Published apps remain accessible at their public URLs even when you're away
• Automations can continue to run in the background after you disconnect

Taskade was founded in 2017 by John Xie (CEO) and Stan Chang (CTO) with a mission to simplify how teams work together.

After Y Combinator (S19), Taskade grew from a real-time collaborative workspace into an AI platform: one prompt can create an app backed by agents, automations, and live workspace data.

Backed by Y Combinator, Grishin Robotics, Fellows Fund, and notable angel investors including Mark Pincus (Zynga), Hiten Shah (Kissmetrics), and Aaron Iba (Etherpad/Google Wave).

Today, Taskade ships weekly product updates and is used by teams worldwide.

Credits power AI features: building Taskade Genesis apps, running agents, executing AI automation steps, and using AI chat.

Credit allocation by plan:

• Free: Your first build is on us. Get started free, no credit card
• Pro: 50,000 credits/month — unlimited agents, all frontier models
• Business: 150,000 credits/month — team-wide building at scale

Paid plans reset monthly on your billing date. Free credits are a one-time grant. Lighter models cost fewer credits per action.

Monitor your usage →

Your first build is included: the free credit grant is sized to fund one complete Genesis app, from the build itself to AI chat for brainstorming, writing, and analysis along the way.

The Free plan itself allows up to 3 Genesis apps, 1 AI agent trained on your data, and automation runs with AI-powered steps — those are plan limits, separate from what the credits fund. Published apps keep running after credits are used. Visitors do not consume your credits.

Start building →

No. Published apps run for free — visitors can use your apps without consuming any of your credits.

Credits are only used when you generate or edit apps, run AI agent conversations, or execute AI-powered automation steps. Once published, your apps serve unlimited visitors at zero credit cost.

This means one-time build cost, unlimited usage.

Free is for exploration. Paid plans add more of the Taskade Genesis surface:

• Pro ($10/mo, billed annually): Unlimited agents and automations, 50,000 credits/month, 15+ frontier models, 100+ integrations, remove the Taskade watermark
• Business ($25/mo, billed annually): 150,000 credits/month, custom domains, white-labeling, unlimited team members, advanced analytics

Compare all plans →

Taskade runs on TSK-1, powered by 15+ frontier models from OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, and open-weight providers:

• Free and paid: Use Auto, or pick TSK-Instant, TSK-Standard, TSK-Thinking, or TSK-Reasoning
• Paid plans: More monthly credits and higher request capacity
• Paid plans: Premium models unlocked for per-agent selection

Auto mode selects a model for the task. You do not need to manage your own API keys.

Depends on your team size and building volume:

• Solo / exploring: Free — your first build is on us, then Pro when you're ready to ship more
• Small team (2-10): Pro ($10/mo billed annually, includes 10 users) — unlimited agents, all AI models, 50K credits
