Is Taskade really free?
Taskade is free for individuals and small teams, with no time limit and no credit card required. The Free plan is not a trial. It stays free for as long as you use it, and your projects, agents, and data carry over the moment you upgrade.
What makes the Free plan generous is that it includes the same building blocks the paid tiers use. You get six of the nine project views, AI chat, basic agents, automations, and a one-time pool of AI credits to build a real app with Taskade Genesis. You only pay when you want more AI credits, more seats, or advanced capabilities like custom domains and single sign-on.
What does the Free plan include?
The Free plan is built for getting real work done, not just kicking the tires. Here is what you get at $0.
- Unlimited projects. Create as many projects as you want. No project cap.
- Six project views. List, Board, Table, Mind Map, Docs, and Calendar. Gantt Chart, Actionsheet, and Org Chart open on any paid plan. Timeline lives inside the Gantt Chart view.
- Real-time collaboration. Share projects, invite teammates, and work together live with guest access.
- AI chat and basic agents. Ask questions, draft content, and run a basic AI agent on your projects.
- Automations. Set up reliable automations that pull events in and push data out across 100+ bidirectional integrations.
- Your first build is on us. Verify your email to unlock a one-time AI credit grant, enough to build your first real app, then earn more through referrals and social actions.
- Access to Taskade Genesis. Turn a prompt into a working app, on the free tier, so you can see what it does before you upgrade.
- 15+ frontier models. Access to frontier models from OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, and open-weight providers.
That is enough to plan a project, build your first AI agent, and ship a small internal tool with Taskade Genesis without spending a cent.

When should you upgrade?
Stay on Free as long as it serves you. Upgrade when you tick one of these signals. Each one usually pays for itself in a single billing period.
- You run out of AI credits. Heavy agent or Taskade Genesis use burns through the one-time first-build grant. Upgrade to Pro for a recurring monthly allowance, or top up with auto top-up.
- You add a third teammate. Free covers you and one teammate, so invite your second member at no cost, then move to Pro for the 10-seat pool when the team grows past two.
- You want advanced agents and more automations. Pro unlocks advanced AI agents and a bigger automation allowance.
- You want a custom domain on a published app. Business lets you publish a Taskade Genesis app on your own domain. Sign-in for the people who use the app already works on Free.
- Your security team asks for single sign-on. SAML SSO is included from Business up, so your team signs in through the identity provider you already run. Enterprise adds dedicated support and an SLA on top.

What teams build on Taskade
The free tier is enough to prove out a real workflow before you commit. One of our Enterprise customers, an IT Program Manager, built a production field-service dashboard with Taskade Genesis and put it this way: "what I did in weeks would've taken 40 people 18 months."
You do not need to be an engineer to get there. Taskade EVE, the Taskade meta-agent, ties Memory (your projects), Intelligence (your agents), and Execution (your automations) into one workspace. You describe the outcome, and Taskade assembles the app, the agents, and the automations to deliver it. Start on Free, and upgrade only when the results earn it.
Start building free or explore the pricing page to see exactly what each plan includes.
Workspace DNA: Every Taskade workspace is powered by three interconnected pillars: Memory (Projects & Databases), Intelligence (Custom AI Agents), and Execution (Automations). Together they form a continuous feedback loop that makes your workspace smarter over time.
