Taskwise report card
Good · out of 4.0 · graded Nov 13, 2026
Best for a free kanban board in the browser
TaskWise is a browser task board with kanban columns, a calendar and a timer per task, and its home page calls it free. But the site has no pricing, about or terms page, it runs in the browser only, and it doesn't say where your tasks are stored.
Who Taskwise is for
- Fits if you want a free kanban board with a calendar and a timer, and one browser tab is enough
- Works for solo people who want to time tasks against an estimate
Who Taskwise is not for
- Skip it if you need a phone or desktop app, since only the browser version is listed
- Not for you if tasks are shared with others, as the listing shows no sharing or team features
- Watch out: the site doesn't say which AI model runs the assistant or where your task data is kept
- Watch out: there is no pricing, about or terms page, so what 'free' covers over time isn't written down
Why Taskwise gets a 2.8
Five grades, each with its reason. The GPA is their average: an A is 4 points, an F is none.
- AValue for moneyThe site describes it as free and lists no paid plan, so nothing is charged on record. The catch is that the claim rests on the home page alone.
- AFree plan and trialNo plan, trial or card is mentioned anywhere, and the whole app is described as free.
- CFeaturesBoard, calendar, checklists, tags, priorities and time tracking against an estimate. The listing shows no sharing, recurring tasks or integrations, so the basics have gaps.
- CEase of useA board you build yourself, column by column, with nothing on record about a tutorial or templates. No store rating exists to go on.
- CPlatforms and integrationsWeb only. No desktop or phone app is listed, and no integrations.

Keep Taskwise, or make your own?
Keep it
Taskwise is free, so making your own would save you nothing.
It is one of the better ones too: its GPA of 2.8 is higher than 98 of the 133 other to-do list apps we grade.
What you could make
- Tasks, kanban boards, calendar, time tracking and Markdown: an app builder makes these well.
What you could not
- AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself.
What this rests on. Taskwise’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
