Hello Taskaders! 🌟

Boost your productivity like never before. Meet your new AI dream team: Roundtable, Research, and SEO Agents! Enjoy and have fun.

> **TL;DR:** Roundtable, Research, and SEO Agents shipped in 2023 were early steps toward today’s Taskade — now with multiple project views, frontier AI models from top AI labs, and 100+ [integrations](https://www.taskade.com/integrations). [Taskade Genesis](https://www.taskade.com/create) turns any prompt into a living app powered by your workspace.

> **Then → Now:** A handful of built-in agents in 2023 evolved into today’s [Multi-Agent Teams collaborating across frontier models](https://www.taskade.com/agents) with [custom tools and persistent memory](https://www.taskade.com/learn/agents/custom-agents). Pair them with [Automations](https://www.taskade.com/automate) and [community templates](https://www.taskade.com/templates).

## 🪑 The Roundtable, Then and Now

October 2023 shipped the first "AI dream team" — three preset agents (Roundtable, Research, SEO) you could summon with a slash command. In 2026 you build the whole team yourself and let them collaborate.
