Hi Taskaders  🎉

We've worked hard to make Taskade work better for you! Here's what's new:

> **TL;DR:** Embedding YouTube, Loom, and Figma shipped in 2021 was the start of what's now [100+ integrations](https://www.taskade.com/integrations) across 10 categories. Today [Taskade Genesis](https://www.taskade.com/create) embeds live, working apps anywhere — not just videos and previews — backed by [AI Agents](https://www.taskade.com/agents) and frontier AI models.

> **Then → Now:** A handful of inline embed providers in 2021. Now [100+ integrations](https://www.taskade.com/integrations) plus [Taskade Genesis embeds live apps anywhere](https://www.taskade.com/create) — interactive dashboards, forms, and AI portals — across [multiple project views](https://www.taskade.com/templates) and full [Automations](https://www.taskade.com/automate).

## 🧩 From iframe embeds to live, embeddable apps

The 2021 embed engine added five providers. The 2026 version embeds *entire interactive Genesis apps* anywhere — and lets agents read the embedded content.
