Overview

A Taskade Genesis CRM runs on the four layers of Workspace DNA โ€” Projects (Memory) hold accounts, contacts, and deals; AI Agents (Intelligence) score leads and write follow-ups; Automations (Execution) route hot leads to sales reps and log activity; and the App UI (Interface) is a Table view (or a published Genesis dashboard) your team actually uses.

TL;DR: Build a CRM in Taskade Genesis with one prompt: pipeline table, AI lead scoring, automated follow-ups via Gmail/Slack/Calendly, and a published dashboard. Starts at $6/user/mo vs $75โ€“200/user/mo for Salesforce or HubSpot. 100+ integrations included. Your pipeline updates itself as real-world events happen. Build a CRM โ†’

Automation Ideas

You can automate and streamline your CRM projects in many different ways. Here are a few CRM automation ideas to get you started.

Google Forms + Taskade AI + Gmail

Google Forms Trigger: New Form Submission
Taskade Action: Add Task
Taskade AI Action: Generate with AI
Gmail Action: Send email

๐Ÿ”„ Automation Scenario: When a new form submission is received from a potential lead through Google Forms, the lead is added to the CRM project. Taskade AI generates a personalized message based on the submitted information. Gmail then automatically sends this message to the lead.

Calendly + Taskade AI + Slack

Calendly Trigger: Event Scheduled
Taskade Action: Add Task
Taskade AI Action: Generate with AI
Slack Action: Send channel message

๐Ÿ”„ Automation Scenario: When a new event is scheduled in Calendly, the lead is added to the CRM project. Taskade AI generates a personalized message or reminder based on the event details. This message is then sent to a designated Slack channel to notify team members about the scheduled event.



The CRM Data Model

Behind every sales workflow is a simple data model. In Taskade, each entity is a project โ€” you don't set up tables manually:

ACCOUNT string name string industry string size date last_touched CONTACT string name string email string role string linkedin DEAL string name decimal value string currency date close_date string stage ACTIVITY string type string summary datetime timestamp AGENT (no attributes) AUTOMATION (no attributes) has people is involved in produces writes automatically triggers

Accounts contain contacts. Contacts drive deals. Deals sit in stages. Every call, email, and note is an activity โ€” and AI agents + automations are first-class writers of activities alongside humans. That's what makes a Taskade CRM live: your pipeline updates itself as real-world events happen.
