Taskade
Also known as: Taskade Genesis, Taskade Workspace DNA
AI-native workspace and no-code builder with autonomous Plan & Execute agents and multi-agent teams.
Taskade is an AI-native unified workspace that combines real-time collaboration, AI agents, workflow automation, and no-code app generation in a single tool, positioning itself as an operating system for team productivity. It began in 2017 as a collaborative document and project editor and has progressively layered AI on top without removing the underlying productivity features.
The platform is organized around what Taskade calls Workspace DNA, a self-reinforcing loop of four primitives: Projects (memory and data), Agents (intelligence), Automations (execution), and the app interface. Memory feeds the agents, the agents trigger automations, and automations write new state back into memory, so a workspace compounds in capability as it is used.
Taskade Genesis, launched publicly in October 2025, is the no-code builder that turns a natural-language prompt into a running application rather than static code, with a central orchestrator called EVE coordinating agent activity and the app lifecycle. Custom AI agents can be trained on files, data, and web links, deployed as multi-agent teams, and connected to more than 100 external tools, with a public API and an MCP server.
Founded by CEO John Xie, CTO Stan Chang, and CPO Dionis Loire and headquartered in San Francisco, Taskade is a Y Combinator (S19) company that raised a $5M seed round from Grishin Robotics, Y Combinator, and angels including Immad Akhund and Mark Pincus. It serves more than a million users, including teams at Nike, Netflix, Tesla, Airbnb, and 3M, and is sold self serve, with a free plan and Pro at $10 a month or $60 a year.

Integrations
Agents carry 22 or more built-in tools, cited elsewhere by the vendor as 34, plus custom tool definitions, and automations connect more than 100 native integrations with branching, looping and filtering, spanning messaging, email, CRM and payments through Slack, Gmail, HubSpot, Salesforce and Stripe, extended further through Zapier and n8n, for which the vendor publishes a public source-of-truth repository of its actions and triggers. Documented agent actions include creating tasks, sending emails, posting to Slack and updating calendars. The developer surface covers REST API v1, an Action API v2, an SDK, webhooks, OAuth 2.0 and Personal API Tokens, with OIDC sign-in for Genesis apps. An official Model Context Protocol server exposes 50-plus tools across workspaces, projects, tasks, agents, knowledge bases, templates and automations, with a hosted OAuth endpoint requiring no installation, and ships alongside an OpenAPI-to-MCP code generator. Automation triggers include schedules, task events, deadlines, incoming email and content feeds such as YouTube and RSS.
In practice
You keep rebuilding the same client-portal-plus-intake-form setup across three disconnected tools. In Taskade you describe it once and Genesis assembles a running workspace around it, with the data, agents, and automations already wired together.
Your team's project notes, tasks, and the AI meant to help all live in separate apps that don't talk. Taskade keeps them in one workspace where the project is the memory, agents act on it, and automations write results back.
You want an assistant that knows your accounting method or where your project docs actually live, not a generic chatbot. You can train a custom Taskade agent on your own files, data, and links and give it a defined role.

| Knowledge Grounding & RAG | Full |
|
The vendor's documentation index describes Agent Knowledge as training agents on uploaded PDFs, CSVs and documents, URLs and YouTube, or connected projects as live, auto-updating sources, with a Knowledge Management page covering bulk import and auto-categorization and REST API v1 endpoints to add and remove projects and media from an agent's knowledge. Each agent keeps its own maintained set of knowledge sources that update automatically. Long-Term Memory is a separate feature.

| Human Oversight & Guardrails | Full |
|
The vendor's Tools for AI Agents page documents Human in the Loop as an approve or reject gate before agents interact with external platforms: the builder enables it in the agent's Tools tab and selects which tools require approval, and when the agent wants to use one of those tools it proposes the action, the user sees a confirmation prompt, and the agent proceeds only on Approve and stops on Reject. Recommended uses are sending emails, posting to social media and creating CRM records. That is an approval step the vendor ships in the run path. Tools can also be enabled, disabled or removed per agent. Sourcedocs.taskade.com Tools for AI Agents pageread 2026-09-29 |

Documented access controls are OAuth 2.0 and Personal API Token authentication for programmatic access, OIDC sign-in for Genesis apps, single sign-on on higher tiers, team workspaces with administrative controls, and role assignment within workspaces. Agent public access is a documented toggle controlling whether an agent is reachable by shareable link or embedded. No security certification, trust center, SCIM provisioning or audit-log documentation appears on the vendor's developer documentation, MCP repositories or product pages cited.

| Observability & Auditability | Partial |
|
Agent conversations are documented as auto-saved and persistent for later review, and automations are described as durable with execution resuming after failures. Advanced analytics are cited by the vendor on higher tiers. No agent execution trace, tool-call record, cross-agent run history, change audit log or cost attribution appears in the vendor's README, MCP tool surface, developer documentation or product pages cited. The Workspace DNA architecture has automation execution writing new state back into projects, so run-level attribution is consequential and is not documented.

| Memory & State Persistence | Full |
|
The vendor's Long-Term Memory page documents memory held as a dedicated Memory Project that the agent writes and reads: EVE's workspace memory persists across sessions, is scoped to one workspace and grows automatically as the user interacts, and per-agent memory persists across conversations with that agent. The user can browse the memory project, remove entries, correct facts, add context and version it, with edits taking effect in the next conversation, and the memory is addressable through the Action API v2. The agent writes this memory, it has a set scope, and users can purge, review and edit it; the memory project is separate from business projects, so deleting it does not delete business records.

Taskade is documented as a cloud workspace with native desktop and mobile applications and self-serve pricing starting at a low monthly rate. No self-hosting, on-premises deployment, virtual private cloud option, customer-managed encryption keys or customer-selectable region appears in the vendor's README, developer documentation, MCP repositories or product pages cited. Genesis apps can be published to a customer's own domain with OIDC sign-in, which controls the published application's address rather than where Taskade processes or stores data.

The vendor's documentation directs users not to start from a blank prompt but to clone a ready-made app for free from the community gallery or the vendor's official kits and customize it in Taskade Genesis. A clone-ready App Kits Gallery is maintained by the vendor, and a Workspace DNA template for building Genesis apps is published as its own repository. The template library is documented at 700-plus templates covering project management, engineering and marketing, and the vendor cites 150,000-plus apps generated. Templates are an addressable object type in the MCP server tool surface, with a documented flow for creating a project from a template.

| Model Flexibility & Routing | Full |
|
The vendor's TSK-1 page documents a model picker in which the customer sets an agent or automation to Auto, pins one of four capability tiers (Instant, Standard, Thinking, Reasoning), or on Max and Enterprise pins a custom model such as a specific Claude or GPT version, which bypasses TSK-1 routing entirely. The Long-Term Memory page states more than eleven frontier models are integrated and that switching an agent from Claude to Gemini keeps its memory. Customers choose across model makers, though custom models are limited to the Max and Enterprise plans. Sourcedocs.taskade.com TSK-1 Model Tiers and Long-Term Memory pagesread 2026-09-29 |

The vendor's own materials describe agents with 22 to 34 built-in tools, more than 100 native integrations, custom tool definitions and web browsing to gather information, with all action paths running through connectors, the REST and Action APIs, or the MCP server, which are programmatic interfaces. Web browsing for research is retrieval over fetched content rather than operation of software lacking an interface. No browser control, session automation, form filling or cloud-computer capability appears in the vendor's README, MCP tool surface, developer documentation or product pages.
