Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about TaskGuru's to do list management, project tracking, and team collaboration features
TaskGuru is the best to do list app for teams because it combines simple task list management with powerful team collaboration features. Unlike basic to do list apps, TaskGuru shows all your projects on one page and includes built-in team chat.
TaskGuru is both! It works as a simple to do list app for personal use, but includes all the features you'd expect from professional task management software - team collaboration, project boards, cross-project visibility, and more.
To do list apps focus on simple personal task tracking, while task management software includes team collaboration, project organization, and advanced features. TaskGuru bridges this gap by offering both - simple enough for personal to do lists, powerful enough for team task management.
TaskGuru's Immediate board is what makes this work: you pull tasks onto it from any project, and it becomes one ranked list for today instead of a dozen tabs to check. Unlike other apps that require switching between tabs and projects, TaskGuru shows all your projects simultaneously with an immediate board for current priorities. It works independently without requiring Google Workspace or Microsoft 365, includes a free plan (currently a limited rollout to selected new desktop-web accounts) alongside paid plans starting at $3.49/month, and combines task management with contextual team chat.

You can see all your to-do lists from different projects simultaneously, chat with team members about specific tasks, and use the immediate board to prioritize what needs to be done right now.

Google Tasks is a basic to-do list tied to Gmail and Google Workspace.

TaskGuru is a revolutionary task management platform that shows your entire life on one page. It has three plans: Free at $0/month with up to 3 owned boards and 90 days of message history, no card required; Unlimited Monthly at $5.00/month for unlimited boards and message history; and Unlimited Annually at $3.49/month, billed once a year at $41.88, the plan most people choose. No hidden fees, no ecosystem lock-in, and no required subscriptions to other services. The Free plan is currently a limited rollout to selected new desktop-web accounts.
TaskGuru is perfect for small teams, freelancers, remote workers, students, and parents who manage multiple projects and want to see everything at once. If you're tired of tab switching, want simple but powerful features, and need team collaboration without complexity, TaskGuru is ideal.
TaskGuru solves the core problem of scattered attention across multiple tools. Instead of switching between project tabs like in Asana or Trello, losing context in Slack channels, or managing separate personal/team apps, TaskGuru shows all your projects on one page with task-based communication built in.
TaskGuru eliminates productivity killers like tab switching, context loss, and scattered tools. The immediate board shows only what needs attention now, ultra focus mode removes distractions, and seeing all projects simultaneously prevents important tasks from being forgotten. It's designed for execution, not engagement.
TaskGuru is being built for AI agents, not just human users. An MCP server and API integration for tools like Claude and LangChain are built, with human-in-the-loop controls so an agent can be made to ask before it writes to your boards — that integration is built and rolling out rather than live everywhere yet. Today, TaskGuru's clean structure and clear task organization already make it easy to export data for AI analysis and to work well alongside the AI assistants and automation tools you use.
Absolutely! TaskGuru excels at both personal task management and team collaboration. Use it personally to see all your life projects on one page, or invite team members to specific boards for collaboration. The same immediate board and multi-project view works whether you're managing personal goals or team projects.
