Definition: A workspace is the top level in Taskade's hierarchy structure. It's a dedicated, centralized space that allows individuals and teams to collaborate effectively by aggregating work in one, shared area.
A workspace is the outermost container in Taskade. Everything else — folders, projects, tasks, AI agents, and automations — lives inside it. It holds your team, your shared knowledge, and your AI teammates in a single place, so people and AI work from the same context instead of scattered tools.
TL;DR: A Taskade workspace is the top-level hub where your team, folders, projects, agents, and automations live together. It forms the Memory strand of Workspace DNA — shared context that powers AI agents and reliable automation workflows. Build your first app free →
The Workspace Tree at a Glance
Inside a workspace, content nests in a clear hierarchy. The sidebar shows folders grouping related projects, and each project holds tasks across 7 project views (List, Board, Calendar, Table, Mind Map, Gantt, Org Chart):
┌─ TASKADE ───────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ WORKSPACES │
│ ▼ 🚀 Acme Marketing ← workspace (top level) │
│ ▸ 📁 Campaigns ← folder │
│ • Q3 Product Launch ← project │
│ • Newsletter Calendar ← project │
│ ▸ 📁 Content Pipeline ← folder │
│ • Blog Backlog ← project │
│ • Team Wiki ← project (no folder) │

Where Workspaces Sit in Workspace DNA
A workspace is more than storage. It is the Memory strand of Workspace DNA — the self-reinforcing loop where shared context (Memory) feeds AI agents (Intelligence), which trigger automations (Execution), which create new context back in the workspace:
Because AI agents and automations read from the same workspace, they always work with current team context — no copy-pasting between tools.
What Lives Inside a Workspace
| Layer | What it holds | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| Workspace | Members, folders, projects, agents, automations | The shared boundary for one team or initiative |
| Folders | Groups of related projects | Keep large workspaces organized |
| Projects | Tasks across 7 views | The actual work, viewable as List, Board, Calendar, Table, Mind Map, Gantt, or Org Chart |
| AI Agents | AI teammates with 34 built-in tools | Multi-agent collaboration on workspace content |
| Automations | Reliable automation workflows | 100+ bidirectional integrations push and pull data |
| Members | 7-tier roles (Owner → Viewer) | Role-based access for safe collaboration |
Where Will You Find a Workspace Inside of Taskade?
A workspace is your command center where you can create, organize, and collaborate on tasks. Once you're logged into your Taskade account, you'll find your workspaces in the left-hand sidebar, below the 👥 Shared with me button.

For step-by-step instructions on creating and managing workspaces, see the Learn Taskade guide: Create a Workspace. You can also invite members, organize work into team folders, and collaborate in real time.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a workspace in Taskade?
A workspace is the top level of Taskade's hierarchy — a shared hub that holds your team, folders, projects, AI agents, and automations in one place. It aggregates everything an individual or team needs to collaborate, so work lives in a single shared area instead of being scattered across separate tools.
How is a workspace different from a folder or a project?
A workspace is the outermost container; folders and projects nest inside it. A folder groups related projects, and a project holds your actual tasks across 7 project views. Put simply: workspace contains folders, folders contain projects, and projects contain tasks.
Can multiple people collaborate in one workspace?
Yes. A workspace is built for collaboration. You invite members and assign 7-tier roles ranging from Owner to Viewer, so everyone has the right level of access. AI agents and automations work from the same shared context, keeping people and AI aligned on current information.
How do AI agents use a workspace?
AI agents read from the workspace as shared Memory — the projects, tasks, and knowledge inside it. This grounds their work in current team context. Agents come with 34 built-in tools and support multi-agent collaboration, including an orchestration mode where a manager agent plans steps and delegates to specialist agents with a review step.
How do I create a new workspace?
Once logged in, your workspaces appear in the left-hand sidebar below the Shared with me button. Use the add-workspace control to create a new one, then invite members and start adding folders and projects. The Create a Workspace guide walks through each step.
How many workspaces can I have?
You can create multiple workspaces to separate different teams, clients, or initiatives — each with its own members, folders, and projects. Workspace and member limits depend on your plan, starting with the Free plan and scaling up through Starter ($6/mo), Pro ($16/mo), and Business ($40/mo, annual billing).
