Key features

Notion’s features

Let’s start with Notion’s features!

Note-taking

Notion is one of the most popular note-taking apps, and it is not an accident. Just to give you a background on how this app works: You can have multiple workspaces in which you structure your notes and basically everything. For example, you can have a workspace for personal or work-related items. The workspaces include your pages.

The pages are the fundamentals of your workspaces. You can use them for notes, projects, tasks, and so on. There are no strict rules on how you structure your pages or what information you want to include in them. For instance, in my Notion’s workspace, there are pages dedicated to self-development, money plans, YT scripts, admin info, and notes. Now, let’s go back to note-taking!

Notion is a sophisticated text editor that allows you to easily add and organize different types of content called blocks. When writing your notes, you can add headings, sub-pages, bullet points, and tables without touching your mouse.

In your notes, you can insert images, bookmarks, videos, code, kanban board, and more by simply hitting the “/” button on your keyboard. I especially love the embedded functions. Notion offers multiple embedded forms like YouTube videos, Google Docs, Google Maps, Miro, and more.

Notion is incredibly useful for note organization and management. You can tag notes with custom keywords, add teammates, set due dates, etc. You can access all your notes with your sidebar on the left.

Project management tool

Notion also works as a simple task and project management software, where you can plan and execute your projects with your team. Let’s start with the project management features.

With Notion, you can visualize your projects’ workflows in different formats, from calendars to boards. Depending on the format you choose, Notion allows you to use progress bars to show how your project is moving forward. You can also create charts or visualize dependencies to see when one task is blocking another and avoid bottlenecks.

When checking your projects, you can utilize filters to show only the tasks assigned to you or the urgent ones.

Notion’s task management features have everything that you need. You can break your projects into manageable tasks and add status, assignee, or due dates.

Whether you want to use Notion for project or task management, you do not have to spend hours creating the proper form for you or your team. This is where you can use the templates.

Customizable templates

Notion currently has more than20,000 free templates from which you can browse. This is an insane number. Just to give you an example: if you want to create a to-do list, you can choose from almost a thousand templates.

Utilizing the templates, you do not have to go through the time-consuming process of creating pages to track your projects or tasks. With a few clicks, you can insert a template you like, and you just need to add the databases.

AI writing assistant

Notion’s AI writing assistant can greatly improve your writing by detecting errors and correcting misspelled words and incorrect grammar. But it can do much more.

On the bottom left corner of Notion, you can access the AI assistant feature that answers your questions, gives you summaries, translates your page, finds action items, and helps you improve your writing. Basically, it works like a built-in ChatGPT.

But it can do more than just work with text. The AI writing assistant’s feature can help you gather information from various file types, including PDFs and images.

Overall, these tools help you to become more efficient when taking notes.

Wikis

Team members often struggle to find the information they need. Using Notion, you can create your own knowledge library. These hubs can help your team members find and understand the information they need to do their jobs.

Imagine how powerful it could be when onboarding new employees or just wanting to have organized databases where your team members can access the information they need to do their jobs.

Calendar

You can connect your Google Calendar with your existing Notion workspace, so you will be able to see your meetings and appointments in your Notion calendar. Notion’s calendar is synced with your workspace, so you can make references to specific pages in the meeting invite.

Notion Calendar is available for iPhone and Android devices, and soon it will be compatible with Outlook and iCloud.

Ultimately, Notion’s calendar helps you to centralize your calendar management, notes, and project management tasks in a centralized app.

AI note-taking

Notion recently released its AI note-taker for Zoom, Microsoft Teams, and Google Meet calls. Basically, it joins your calls without a bot and transcribes & summarizes them.

So, you can turn your conversations into insights and action items in your Notion workspace.

Taskade’s features

Let’s see Taskade’s key features!

Project management software

Taskade is a lightweight project management software. The reason why I say that it is a lightweight project management app is that it does not have advanced project management tools like time tracking features. Also, it is not a complex project management app compared to other apps.

However, it has many valuable features to make your project management workflows faster and simpler while enhancing productivity and team collaboration. With your AI agents, you can make the project planning much shorter, as it can structure the tasks, offer potential sub-tasks, set up reminders based on your timeline, etc.

Besides AI agents, automation is also useful in project management. Taskade’s automation allows you to streamline repetitive tasks by setting up a wide set of real-time triggers (task added/updated, comments, external feeds like YouTube/RSS) and chained actions.

You can design custom workflows and integrate them with Google Sheets, Slack, or WordPress.

Let me give you some examples of how the automation works. You can create a rule for sending Slack notifications if there is a new comment for your tasks in Taskade. Or, it can automatically create a task after a meeting is scheduled in Calendly.

This was my favorite feature during my Taskade review, as you can customize the rules of automation in detail. So, when adding a next step when an action is triggered, there are many options from which you can choose, like sending it to another app or sending a notification to project managers.

Let’s move on to the task management features!

Task management

Taskade is a task management software that allows you to manage multiple projects and tasks effectively. When I said that Taskade is a lightweight project management app, it is not true for task management, as it has solid features.

You can easily add and assign tasks to your team members. With one click, you can create task lists and give due dates, tags, and notes to each task.

The AI agents are also quite helpful when creating multiple tasks. They can help break projects and complex tasks into sub-tasks and are great for brainstorming what other tasks you should consider.

Note-taking features

Taskade can also work as a note-taking app. Nevertheless, compared to note-taking apps like Notion, Obsidian, Anytype, or Xtiles, Taskade lacks advanced note-taking capabilities.

While Taskade works well for simple notes, it doesn’t offer some features that dedicated note-taking tools do, such as relational databases and more sophisticated knowledge-management systems.

But to be honest, Taskade was not originally designed as a traditional note-taking tool. It uses a task-based structure where most content can easily be turned into actionable items, connected to projects, or automated with workflows.

And this approach comes in handy when it comes to meeting notes. You can instantly create tasks, summaries, and organized lists from your meeting notes using Taskade. Utilizing Taskade’s AI capabilities in these workflows can really enhance productivity.

Let’s take a look at these AI features!

AI agents

In short, Taskade’s AI agents aren’t simple chatbots. They can store short- and long-term memory, be trained on workspace data, orchestrate as multi-agent teams, and you can pick from multiple LLM providers depending on the task.

You can tailor your AI agents to your specific needs by adding sources from which it can work and giving instructions.

You can create AI agents for project management, content creation, data analysis, and so on. When creating your AI agent, you need to describe precisely the scope of activities it is responsible for. Do not worry. Taskade will pre-fill the instructions for many AI agents, and you can amend them if you want.

After, you need to choose from the commands. For example, I created an AI assistant for project management, and I could choose from these commands:

Furthermore, you need to add the tools it should use. It can get its content from any website, or you can select some specific website from which it should provide you with input.

At this point in my Taskade review, I nearly spit out my coffee. I had not seen similar features in any of the productivity tools before. The AI assistants are just too powerful.

What this means in practice is that you can create multiple agents and let them assist with different parts of your workflow. For example, one agent can help with project planning, another can generate content ideas, while another can analyze documents or summarize research.

With these capabilities, Taskade allows you to build small AI-powered systems around your projects rather than just using AI for simple prompts.

AI App Builder (Genesis)

One of the biggest recent additions to Taskade is its AI app builder called Genesis.

Instead of manually creating tasks, workflows, and dashboards, you can simply describe what you want, and Taskade generates the entire structure for you. For example, you can ask it to create a CRM system, a content marketing workflow, an SEO dashboard, a project management workspace, or even an internal knowledge base.

Within seconds, Taskade generates tasks, workflows, automations, and even AI agents that power the system.

During my testing, this was very different from traditional productivity tools. Instead of building everything step by step, you can start with an AI-generated structure and then customize it.

Of course, these AI-generated setups are not perfect and usually require some adjustments. Still, they can save a significant amount of time when creating new workflows or internal systems. If you frequently build dashboards, workflows, or project structures, this feature can noticeably speed up the whole process.

Views

You can choose from numerous view options, including list, board, table, timeline, mind map, org chart, calendar, and Gantt Chart views. My favorite one is the mind mapping feature.

Mind maps help you view the whole project from a bird’ s-eye view. You can change between the views dynamically with a click.

Chat with your docs

If you click on the “+” button, you can add files to your projects. Taskade supports almost all file formats, from PDF to JPG and MOV.

You can interact with the uploaded files if you move the mouse cursor over the uploaded attachment and click the “ask AI” tab. It allows you to ask questions about the document, summarize it, etc. So, this feature ultimately helps you digest documents faster.

Templates

Taskade offers numerous templates for task management, project management, mind maps, team management, etc. They can save you massive time, as you no longer need to start from scratch when creating a new project.

You can publish and clone apps from Taskade’s community gallery, or fork AI templates to jumpstart projects.

Collaboration tools

Taskade AI offers a shared space for teams to communicate, collaborate, and manage their projects. This app is full of collaboration features.

You can easily share your workspaces and projects with your team members. After you share them with your team members, you can chat with them next to every project. It is a practical solution that the chat and the project you work on are on the same page.

When you click on the chat, you can decide if you want to chat with Taskade AI & your team, only with your team, only with Taskade AI, or with one of your AI agents.

Moreover, Taskade has robust features when it comes to real-time collaboration. You can assign tasks to your team members, edit your projects together, and create a knowledge management center for your company.

User interface

Now, let’s take a look at both Taskade’s and Notion’s user interfaces!

Notion’s user interface

Notion’s user interface is simple. It has a minimalist aesthetics with white space, clear typography, and subtle colors are the focus. Even if you are a first-time Notion user, you will be able to quickly navigate the pages, as you will find every important information on the sidebar.

As you can see, Notion has many features. This is the only thing that might feel overwhelming at first. Even though I have used Notion for more than 2 years, I have not explored all its features and potential.

When working in Notion, you will quickly realize that it uses a block system that works like Lego. It transforms all the content into movable, customizable pieces, which gives you the flexibility to move these blocks around.

Thanks to the block system and extensive customization options, you have the flexibility to create databases, notes, and projects that 100% suit your needs.

Taskade’s user interface

Taskade has a user-friendly interface and a beautiful design. Also, it has quite a short learning curve, and you can quickly learn to utilize almost all the features.

I also enjoyed the way how Taskade structures its pages and functions. Essentially, you can find almost all the features on the page you are working on. So, you can access the team chat, AI features, different views, and other projects on the same page without feeling packed.

You can find Taskade among the mobile apps as well, whether you use Android or iOS.

Integrations

It is time to check the integration options in the Taskade vs Notion battle!

Notion’s integrations

Notion offers many third-party integrations. First of all, you can connect it with Zapier, which will give you access to more than 8000 apps.

Besides the Zapier integration, you can integrate Notion with more than 100 other apps, including Asana, ClickUp, Dropbox, Google Drive, or Jira.

Taskade’s integrations

During my Taskade review, I discovered that it offers a wide range of integrations. You can connect Taskade with Zapier, which allows you to integrate Taskade with more than 8000 third-party apps.

Furthermore, you can use automation with many popular apps like Gmail, Slack, Google Forms, WordPress, MailChimp, Webflow, Calendly, and more. There’s also a large gallery of 1,000+ AI-powered templates and a community gallery of cloneable apps to speed setup.

Pricing

Here, I will show you both productivity apps’ pricing models to see which one is better in the Taskade vs Notion comparison.

Notion’s pricing

Notion has a free plan and three paid plans.

The free plan includes a collaborative workspace, basic forms and sites, Notion Calendar and Mail. It also supports databases with subtasks, dependencies, and custom properties. Based on my experience, Notion’s free version is totally sufficient for individuals to organize their notes and projects.

The plus plan is $10 per seat per month. It has unlimited collaborative blocks, unlimited file uploads, charts, custom forms and sites, and basic integrations. The plus plan is ideal for small teams and individuals who work a lot with others.

The business plan costs you $20 per seat monthly. It offers features like granular database permissions, private teamspaces, domain verification, conditional forms logic, and premium integrations. Business users also get access to Notion AI features. I recommend the business plan for bigger teams who want to utilize more advanced features.

Finally, Notion has an enterprise plan as well with custom pricing. By choosing the enterprise plan, you will receive a dedicated success manager, advanced integrations, and advanced security and control features, among other things.

Keep in mind that, while Notion AI is included in the price of Notion’s Business and Enterprise plans, there is only a trial usage on Free and Plus plans.

For users who rely heavily on documentation and structured workflows, the pricing still makes sense, especially if Notion replaces several other tools.

Taskade’s pricing

Taskade offers several pricing tiers depending on how extensively you want to use its AI features, automation, and collaboration tools.

Free plan

Taskade offers a generous free plan that allows you to explore the platform and test its core capabilities.

It includes one AI agent, and you can invite one teammate and organize projects into one workspace. You will get 3,000 AI credits (one-time) that allow you to make one AI-powered app.

Starter plan

The Starter plan is designed for individuals who want to use Taskade more seriously.

It will get you unlimited workspaces, premium AI models, 100+ integrations, and 10,000 AI credits that can make around 10 apps. It includes up to 3 AI agents, and you can invite up to 3 team members.

This plan is typically enough for freelancers or creators who use AI features regularly but don’t need large-scale automation.

Pro plan

The Pro plan is designed for professionals and power users who rely on Taskade daily.

It includes unlimited AI agents and workspaces, and you can invite up to 10 team members. The 50,000 AI credits that you get on this plan can make about 50 apps.

This plan is ideal for freelancers, creators, and small teams that want to automate parts of their workflow.

Business plan

The Business plan expands Taskade’s capabilities for organizations. It includes everything in the Pro plan, plus three times more AI credits and apps, unlimited team members, a custom domain, and API access.

This plan is suitable for companies that want to use Taskade as a centralized workspace for projects, documentation, and workflows.

Enterprise plan

For large organizations, Taskade offers an Enterprise plan with custom pricing.

It includes advanced security features, SSO authentication, and enterprise-level administration controls.

One more thing worth mentioning is that you can buy top-up credit packs if you run out of AI credits. This way, it is easy to scale AI usage without upgrading your entire plan.

Let’s break down this Taskade vs Notion comparison into different segments.

When it comes to project management, Taskade is the winner for me. You can automate tasks and projects effortlessly, and offers better collaboration tools for project management than Notion.

If we consider task management, Taskade has the upper hand again. With Taskade, you can assign, track, and discuss tasks easily thanks to its robust task management and communication features.

However, Notion is a way better tool for note-taking. Taskade has more limited note-taking features, and you can not customize your notes like you can with Notion.

In terms of user interfaces, it’s a draw for me. Both productivity tools have simple and user-friendly interfaces.

Lastly, Notion has a rich feature set. It offers more use cases than Taskade, from data to calendar management (and soon email management).

Overall, both Notion and Taskade are great productivity tools. When deciding which one to choose, it depends on what you want to use them.

If you are looking for a tool for project and task management, I would choose Taskade. Nevertheless, if you want to have an all-in-one productivity software with excellent note-taking capabilities, I would go with Notion.
