Overview
What Is Taskade Genesis?
Genesis is an AI app builder that generates complete business applications from a single prompt. Just describe what you need, and Genesis will create it for you. Every app is "living software" powered by your Workspace DNA: Projects remember (memory), AI Agents think (intelligence), and Automations act (motion).

Meet the new Interface
Along with new capability comes the most significant UI overhaul in Taskadeโs history. You'll notice major changes in how you navigate between your spaces.
If you're familiar with the previous layout, weโll walk you through everything thatโs changed and help you get comfortable in the new environment.
๐ก Note: Donโt worry, your existing Teams/Folders/Subspaces are still there. They now appear as tiles beneath the input box, so you can easily access everything in one place while keeping the focus on building with AI.
Breadcrumbs
Weโve introduced breadcrumbs across all screens to make navigation faster and more intuitive. Each breadcrumb represents a level in your navigation history.
Click on any part of the trail to jump directly to that section:
Taskade Logo: Go back to the highest level and view your recent projects.
Workspace Name: Takes you back to your workspace overview.
Current Location: Shows the active subspace (like "Marketing Tasks (Week 1)").
- When available, each breadcrumb item includes additional options.
- For Workspaces and Apps, youโll see a dropdown for quick switching.
