Turn one prompt into live business apps, AI agents and automated workflows
Prompt-to-app builder (Taskade Genesis)
Describe an app in a sentence and Taskade generates a working, hosted web app — CRM, dashboard, portal, tracker, booking page — with its own database, no servers or setup to manage.
Custom AI agents and agent teams
Give each agent a role, tools, commands and knowledge sources, train it on your files, projects and websites, and group agents into teams so the right one answers or several work together.
Automations with AI steps
Build trigger-based flows that run 10 to 1,000+ times a month depending on plan, include AI and agent steps, and connect to Gmail, Slack, Google Sheets, HubSpot, Stripe and 100+ other services.
Unified projects, docs, notes and mind maps
Tasks, documents, notes, mind maps and databases live in the same workspace as your agents and apps, so the AI reasons over the same context your team works in.
Strengths & Pros
+One prompt produces a genuinely working app with hosting and a database included
+AI agents, automations, projects, docs and mind maps all live in the same workspace
+Free tier is usable and 1,000+ ready-made app kits and templates cut setup time to minutes
