One workspace, many ways to work.

ClickUp is designed to connect the work that usually gets scattered across separate apps.

01

Tasks & projects

Create actionable work, assign owners, set priorities and connect dependencies across projects.

02

Docs & knowledge

Build collaborative documents, wikis, SOPs and notes that stay connected to the work.

03

Goals & reporting

Connect goals to tasks and use dashboards and rollups to understand progress.

04

Chat & collaboration

Keep conversations close to tasks, projects and documents instead of losing context between tools.

05

Automations

Use rules and triggers to reduce repetitive workflow steps and keep work moving.

06

AI & connected search

Use ClickUp Brain and related AI features to search, summarize, draft and work with context.

Before you sign up

Start with the workflow, not the feature list.

ClickUp is broad and highly configurable. The better question is whether its structure matches how your team actually works.
