What is ClickUp?
ClickUp is a work management platform that brings projects, tasks, documents, team conversations, goals, calendars, dashboards, and automation into one workspace. It supports multiple ways to organize and review work, including lists, Kanban boards, Gantt charts, calendars, roadmaps, and an Everything view.
Its ClickUp Brain² AI uses information from the workspace to answer questions, locate relevant context, summarize activity, and assist with actions. ClickUp also provides AI agents for recurring project operations such as assigning work, tracking deliverables, posting updates, and identifying blocked tasks. The service is available on the web and through mobile and desktop applications.
