Tasks

Definition: Tasks in Taskade are intelligent work units that serve as the atomic building blocks of projects. Unlike traditional task managers, Taskade tasks integrate with AI agents, trigger automations, and maintain context awareness across all universal views.

Intelligent Task Features

AI Agent Integration: Tasks can be assigned to AI agents who understand context and work autonomously
Automation Triggers: Task completion, assignment, or status changes can trigger complex workflow automations
Cross-View Synchronization: Tasks appear and function consistently across all 8 universal views
Rich Context: Tasks maintain full context including history, relationships, and collaborative discussions
Smart Assignments: AI-powered suggestions for optimal task assignment based on team capacity and expertise

Task Collaboration

Real-Time Updates: Task changes appear instantly for all team members across all devices
Comment Threads: Discussions attached to specific tasks with @mentions and notification systems
File Attachments: Rich media support including documents, images, videos, and external links
Status Tracking: Visual progress indicators that update across all project views automatically
Team Coordination: Clear visibility of who's working on what with live presence indicators

Task Intelligence

Context Awareness: Tasks understand their relationship to project goals and team objectives
Predictive Scheduling: AI suggestions for optimal task timing based on team patterns and dependencies
Automatic Categorization: Smart tagging and organization based on task content and context
Progress Prediction: AI estimates for task completion time based on historical data and current workload
Risk Assessment: Early warning system for tasks that might miss deadlines or encounter blockers

Advanced Task Capabilities

Nested Subtasks: Unlimited task hierarchy for complex project breakdown and organization
Custom Fields: Add project-specific data like budgets, priorities, or any business-relevant information
Recurring Tasks: Automated task recreation for routine work with intelligent scheduling
Task Templates: Save and reuse task structures for consistent work patterns
Cross-Project Links: Tasks can reference and depend on tasks in other projects

Mobile Task Management

Offline Capability: Work on tasks offline with automatic synchronization when connection returns
Voice Input: Create and update tasks using voice commands on mobile devices
Camera Integration: Attach photos and scan documents directly into tasks
Location Context: GPS-based task organization and location-aware reminders
Push Notifications: Smart notifications for task deadlines, assignments, and team updates

Getting Started: Create tasks within any project, experiment with different views to see how the same task appears across visualizations, then try assigning tasks to AI agents for autonomous execution.
