## 🧠 One System. One Flow. Built for You.

[![Taskade AI Generator](https://www.taskade.com/static_images/blog/1749746305-1.png)](https://www.taskade.com/create)

The age of [AI Agents](https://www.taskade.com/agents) is here, and it’s just the beginning. With Taskade, [one prompt builds it all](https://www.taskade.com/create) — [projects](https://www.taskade.com/templates), agents, and [automations](https://www.taskade.com/automate) working together in a single workspace.

Your agents don’t just assist, they think, plan, and act alongside you.

> This is how we go from automation to autonomy. From idea to execution. One system. One flow. More coming soon in our summer of autonomy. Stay tuned!

## Frequently Asked Questions

### Can I build and train AI agents on my phone?

Yes. Taskade's iOS and Android apps let you create, customize, and manage AI Agents directly from your mobile device. You can edit system prompts, enable or disable tools, connect agents to automation workflows, and train them with knowledge sources — all from the Agents tab on your phone.

### How do I train Taskade AI Agents with YouTube videos and web links?

Go to the Agents tab, select an agent, tap Edit Agent, then open Knowledge. From there you can add YouTube videos, PDFs, web links, documents, and Taskade projects as training sources. Agents learn from these sources in real time and update automatically when the underlying content changes.

### What are Taskade AI Agent home screen widgets?

Taskade offers iOS and Android home screen widgets that give you one-tap access to your favorite AI Agents. You can add multiple widgets for different agents, launching conversations instantly without opening the app first. Set them up by holding your home screen, adding a Taskade widget, and selecting the agent you want.

### Does Taskade have an MCP server for AI agent development?

Yes. Taskade offers an open-source Model Context Protocol (MCP) server and OpenAPI codegen toolkit at github.com/taskade/mcp. It lets you connect Taskade's API to any MCP-compatible client like Claude or Cursor, enabling developers to generate MCP agent tools and integrate Taskade into custom AI workflows.
