Key Features
  • • AI assistant with context across tasks, docs, and conversations simultaneously. Generates task descriptions from project context, summarizes comment threads, writes documents, creates timelines from brief descriptions, and surfaces insights from project data - not just isolated AI features.
  • • Custom statuses, custom fields, custom views, custom automations, and custom everything else. Teams can rebuild the entire interface to match exactly how they work, making it ideal for complex workflows that outgrow rigid tool structures.
  • • Natively combines project management, document creation (ClickUp Docs), real-time whiteboards, sprint management, time tracking, goal/OKR tracking, and form building in a single workspace - capabilities competitors spread across separate tools.
  • • AI-powered automatic organization
  • • Natural language search across all notes
  • • Chat with your notes via AI assistant
