Seven ways to see the work
Board, list, calendar, timeline, workload, dashboard and My tasks, all on the same tasks and filters.
Projects, in the Business Suite
Project management that plans with you
Everything teams pick monday.com for, plus a timeline that schedules itself, automations without a monthly meter and AI that drafts the plan. In the same suite as your CRM, email and team chat.
What you get
Built for small teams that ship
A timeline that schedules itself
Draw what waits on what. Drag a task later and everything waiting on it moves with it. The critical path and any date clashes are marked for you.
Workload you can see
Each person's open work by week, with any week over the limit you set in red, so nobody is quietly buried.
Your own columns
Money, numbers, dropdowns, dates, checkboxes, people, links, ratings and progress, edited right in the list with totals at the bottom.
Automations without a meter
Recipes like “when a task is done, notify the project owner” run every time. No monthly action allowance to watch.
Recurring tasks
Daily, weekdays, weekly, every two weeks, monthly, quarterly or yearly. Finish one and the next copy appears with a fresh checklist.
Plan with AI
Describe the project in a sentence. AI drafts the tasks, dates, order, checklists and columns, and you change anything before it is created.
AI status updates
One click writes the week's update for a project: what got done, what is late and who owns it, and what is next.

Because it is your whole business
What a stand-alone tool can't do
Tasks on real jobs
Link a task to a Housecall Pro job or customer. Dispatch shows the job's tasks in the field.
Claude, with your rules
Ask Claude what is overdue, who is overloaded or to start a project from a template, through your own MCP connection.
One team, one login
The people in your CRM, team chat and booking are the people you assign work to. Nothing to sync.
