Trello helps you automate repetitive work by this route: organize tasks on boards with cards, due dates and built-in automation. It is best for small teams that want a simple shared board for follow-ups. People also use it to make documents and slides. A free plan is available.
What it does
Trello organizes work as boards, lists and cards. Its pricing page lists quick capture from email, Slack and Microsoft Teams, an inbox, a planner, Power-Ups, built-in no-code automation and mobile apps. Paid plans add AI features, unlimited boards, card mirroring and custom fields; Premium adds more views; Enterprise adds organization-wide controls and SSO through Atlassian Guard.
