Taskade Genesis

Taskade as a CRM

Updated 2026-09-12·13 min read

Overview

Open a Project and click Table in the view switcher. Add columns for company, stage, owner, and next step. Each row is a contact or a deal your team updates in the grid. Open the Automations tab when a Google Form or Calendly event should create that row for you.

This page is the Taskade UI for a CRM. For the no-code method, see How to Build a CRM Without Code. Projects (Memory) hold accounts, contacts, and deals. AI agents (Intelligence) score leads and draft follow-ups. Automations (Execution) route hot leads and log activity.

TL;DR: Describe your CRM in one sentence and Taskade Genesis builds a working pipeline: a contacts table, AI lead scoring, automated follow-ups across Gmail, Slack, and Calendly, and a published dashboard. A solo realtor turns a contact form into an inbound pipeline. Every paid plan includes 100+ integrations. Build a CRM →

Here is what the built app looks like. This is a field-service dashboard: a left sidebar of tabs, and a Table view of customers with the columns a field team reads every morning.

┌───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ Field Ops    │ Customers                               + Add   ⌄ View         │
├───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤
│ ▸ Customers  │ Name            Stage       Owner   Value     Next step        │
│ Jobs         │ ────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────── │
│ Invoices     │ Acme Roofing    Qualified   Priya   $12,400   Send quote       │
│ Team         │ Vera Plumbing   Proposal    Maria   $ 8,900   Book site visit  │
│              │ Hillside HVAC   New         Priya   $ 5,200   Score lead       │
│              │ Coastal Decks   Closed Won  Maria   $21,000   Send invoice     │
└───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘

Each sidebar tab is its own Project. Customers, Jobs, Invoices, and Team all live in one app, and they share data. Connect Stripe or email through saved keys so invoices send themselves, then ship the whole thing on your own custom domain for your team to open every day.

Here is what each tab tracks.

Project (sidebar tab) What it tracks
Customers Accounts, contacts, deal stage, owner, and the next step
Jobs Each job linked to a customer, with status and scheduled date
Invoices Amount, paid or unpaid status, and the Stripe link
Team Who owns which accounts and who is assigned to each job

How the CRM runs itself

A CRM is only useful when it updates without you. Here is the loop. A lead arrives, an AI agent qualifies it, an automation books the meeting and writes the record, and your dashboard refreshes on its own. This is the Workspace DNA loop in action: Memory feeds Intelligence, Intelligence triggers Execution, and Execution writes back to Memory.

Each outcome maps to one layer of Workspace DNA. Here is who does what.

Outcome you want Workspace DNA layer What handles it
Keep every contact and deal in one place Memory A Project in Table view
Score leads and draft replies Intelligence An AI agent (Taskade EVE wires it up)
Route hot leads and book meetings Execution Automations across Gmail, Slack, Calendly
Give your team a screen they actually use Interface A published Taskade Genesis dashboard

Build a CRM from scratch

Taskade Genesis builds a working CRM from a single prompt. You get a pipeline Table, AI lead scoring, automated follow-ups across Gmail, Slack, and Calendly, and a published dashboard your sales team uses every day. No code, no spreadsheets, no per-seat tax. The Project is the database. Taskade EVE writes the follow-ups. Automations move the deals.

To get started, open Taskade Genesis and paste a prompt like:

Build a sales CRM.
Pipeline stages: New, Qualified, Proposal, Closed Won, Closed Lost.
Fields per deal: company, contact, value, owner, next_step, last_touched.
Include AI lead scoring, an inbox for inbound leads from Gmail and Calendly,
auto-drafted follow-up emails after every meeting, and a dashboard showing
deals by stage, deals by owner, and revenue forecast.

Taskade Genesis ships a pipeline Project, a published dashboard, an inbound automation, and Taskade EVE wired to score leads and draft replies. Tune the stages, invite your team, and route the link to sales.

Automation Ideas

You can automate your CRM projects in many ways. Here are a few ideas to get you started.

Google Forms + Taskade AI + Gmail

Google Forms Trigger: New Form Submission
Taskade Action: Add Task
Taskade AI Action: Generate with AI
Gmail Action: Send email

🔄 Automation Scenario: A potential lead submits your Google Form. The automation adds the lead to the CRM project. Taskade AI generates a personalized message from the submitted information. Gmail then sends that message to the lead.

Calendly + Taskade AI + Slack

Calendly Trigger: Event Scheduled
Taskade Action: Add Task
Taskade AI Action: Generate with AI
Slack Action: Send channel message

🔄 Automation Scenario: Someone schedules a new event in Calendly. The automation adds the lead to the CRM project. Taskade AI generates a personalized message or reminder from the event details. The automation then sends that message to a Slack channel, so your team knows about the event.



The CRM Data Model

Behind every sales workflow is a simple data model. In Taskade, each entity is a Project, so you never set up tables by hand:

Accounts contain contacts. Contacts drive deals. Deals sit in stages. Every call, email, and note is an activity. AI agents and automations write activities right alongside your team. That is what makes a Taskade CRM live: your pipeline updates itself as real-world events happen.

Leaving per-seat CRMs

Traditional CRM Taskade Genesis CRM
Per-user/month pricing (Salesforce, HubSpot) One flat plan, no per-seat tax

Data lives in their cloud Lives in your Taskade workspace alongside projects, docs, and agents

Frequently asked questions

Can I run this CRM without creating a new account?

If you already have Taskade, open a Project and click Table. You do not need a second CRM login. Add columns, then open Automations to create rows from a form or a Calendly event. For the broader no-code method, see How to Build a CRM Without Code.

How do I use Taskade as a CRM on a Free plan?

Table view and automations work on Free. Paid plans add capacity and more automation runs. See pricing. This page is the Taskade UI. The generator card lives on the CRM use-case page.

Can a non-technical person build a CRM in Taskade Genesis?

Yes. You describe the CRM you want in one plain-English sentence and Taskade Genesis builds the pipeline table, the dashboard, and the automations for you. There is no code and no spreadsheet setup. A solo realtor or a field-service owner can ship a working CRM in minutes, then adjust fields and stages by typing what they want changed.

How does a solo realtor turn a contact form into a CRM?

Point your website contact form at Taskade through an automation. When someone submits the form, the lead lands in your pipeline as a new record. An AI agent scores it, and an automation drafts a same-day reply through Gmail. Your dashboard updates on its own, so you always see who is new, who is hot, and who needs a follow-up.

Can a field-service business track both customers and jobs here?

Yes. Keep a customer record in one Table view and link each job to the customer it belongs to. Automations send reminders before a job, mark it complete after, and log the activity. The Client Portal Dashboard above is a ready-made starting point you can clone and rename for your trade.

Do I need to set up a database or tables by hand?

No. Each Project is the database. When you ask for accounts, contacts, and deals, Taskade Genesis creates the structure automatically. You never write a schema or connect a separate database. See Projects & Databases for how the Memory layer stores your data.

What does a Taskade Genesis CRM cost?

Every Taskade paid plan includes 100+ integrations and AI agents, so outreach and automation are not separate add-ons. A traditional CRM like Salesforce or HubSpot charges per user per month, and most integrations cost extra. See current plans on the pricing page.

Can my team use the CRM without learning Taskade first?

Yes. Publish your CRM as a Taskade Genesis dashboard and share the link. Your team sees a clean screen built for the way they work, not a stack of menus. They can add deals, update stages, and read the dashboard without touching the builder.
