Product Core Functions
Trello organizes work into boards, lists, and cards that hold the task’s details, owners, due dates, checklists, attachments, and comments. Teams start on the classic Board view, then switch to Timeline for schedules, Calendar for dates, Table for cross-board rollups, Dashboard for metrics, and Map for location-based work. Custom Fields add structured data, while card templates and workspace templates help standardize how work starts.
Butler automation reduces busywork with rules, buttons, and scheduled commands. You can auto-move cards when statuses change, set due dates, assign members, add checklists, or notify Slack and create Jira issues based on board events. AI features add lift at capture and editing time: Inbox collects tasks from email and chat into one place, Planner syncs with your calendar to block time, and Atlassian Intelligence drafts or summarizes content directly on cards so teams align faster.
Power-Ups and integrations connect files and workflows. Attach Google Drive or Microsoft files to keep assets on the card, mirror Jira issues, and extend with hundreds of connectors. Admins get workspace roles, sharing controls, and run logs. With desktop, web, and mobile apps, Trello gives individuals and teams a lightweight system to plan, execute, and report without heavy setup
